    Wizards of the Coast Head Explains Benefits to D&D Franchise Model

    I wonder what the plan is. People already use Beyond at the table, so are they talking about making Maps easy to use on a table display? Or pulling back from VTT elements?

    TTRPG Genres You Just Can't Get Into -and- Tell Me Why I'm Wrong About X Genre I Don't Like

    If I recall, GURPS has lots of those dials, but you aren't required to use them all in any given campaign. It is meant to be customized for the specific genre and milieu.

    Ben Riggs: 'The Golden Age of TTRPGs is Dead'

    Eww. I mean, I like Discord as a tool for comms, whether with my game group or fellow collaborators on freelance jobs. But I really dislike it as a replacement for forums.

    Ben Riggs: 'The Golden Age of TTRPGs is Dead'

    I would argue that they indicate strong support immediately. This is a tough industry, and no one knows what 5 years down the line looks like. The thing about both Cosmere and Draw Steel is they do not appear to have the kind of adoption rate that we are seeing with Daggerheart -- but that...

    Ben Riggs: 'The Golden Age of TTRPGs is Dead'

    And we know that no company has ever burned through its cash reserves before... Look, I am not saying that these games won't be well supported. I am saying that we should not count our chickens.

    Daggerheart "Description on Demand" a GM DON'T

    There has never been a time in the hobby more open to and demanding of Session 0, so if folks aren't having one, they are doing it on purpose. Even D&D tells you to have one.

    Daggerheart "Description on Demand" a GM DON'T

    Daggerheart "Description on Demand" a GM DON'T

    I really like it for my style of play, where "prep" is mostly what happened last time and what the voices on my shoulder are telling me.
