Blind Guardian but with even worse lyrics? That's something impressive...

The two are unrelated Comics do their own thing because they're too small for the movie studios and corporate hireups to give a flip Change in comics that reflect the movies aren't the movie studios saying "make Fury black and bring in Colson." It's the failing superhero comic industry...

I don't think anti-Monopoly laws come into effect if you only have 33.6 percent of the market in specialty stores

Baldur's Gate was super tacked-on to DESCENT INTO AVERNUS For no reason other than to tie-into the game And RIME is set in the same place as DARK ALLIANCE and ties into the backstories of the game's characters They didn't tie into the narrative but tied into the location and put it in the...

Thompson and Mearls were Millennials. Barely, but still Millennials Crawford is likely about the same And they've hired a half-dozen new staff that is their age or younger And all the young freelancers working for the game are either old Zoomers or young Millennials Things did change. You just...

As Aldarc sez, mystic really goes hand-in-hand with "mystical Asians." Still feels offensive And "mystic" by itself doesn't give you the idea of a class that punches people. Feels more like an occult wizard Mystic was the name of the divine healer in DRAGONLANCE SAGA and when they added the...

Just like DESCENT INTO AVERNUS tied into BALDUR'S GATE III and RIME OF THE FROSTMAIDEN tied into the upcoming DARK ALLIANCE video game, I expect the big summer adventure to tie into one of the other four or five unannounced but teased video games that are in the works Or Neverwinter as the movie...

Why "mystic" tho? That doesn't sound much better and doesn't give a good idea what the class is Mystic sounds too occult. Like a spiritualist or a medium Why not something like "brawler?"

Yes. And Millennials and Zoomers are half the audience They don't need a new edition to reach them. They already have one they want A 6th Edition for a new audience with new tastes won't be needed until the bulk of Generation Alpha (2010s to mid-2020s) reaches High School and College years in...

Great Do you see a major demographic change looming that would necessitate changing DnD with a new edition?

It's fine as is All we need is to add the word "usually" or "often" to many humanoids. And anything with a civilization gets "any"

Yes It's a two-word tag that lets me know is a creature is amoral or moral, or if they're remotely honorable (Without alignment what's the difference between demons and devils?) I can tell at a glance if something is a Machiavellian schemer out for itself, a disorderly being out for...

Small shake-ups and experimental products, yes Changing your entire product so, in the event of failure, you seriously damage the brand, no The risk-to-reward ratio is far too high We don't need WizCo to make a New Coke of DnD

Or the game has gotten too big to engage with the fans on Twitter and social media anymore so they're finding another way to communicate

They might do a reprint/ revision Current books were designed for existing players and they've learned a lot about writing 5e rules for new players. Cleaned up versions might work No way in hell they're doing 6th Ed DnD has had its best year ever for the last two or three years in a row. No way...

We'll see those after the wrap the Orcus storyline from Campaign 1

Heard a few people drifting away at the start of the Lucien arc It's an odd arc. Not based on the current characters and steeped in world lore that hasn't really come up before. Has a "tacked on" feeling All the previous storylines really were tied into the war plot of the existing characters...

They did three adventures with Vox Machina in 3.5 years. All tied to the Kickstarter But assuming they do Nein one shots not tied to a KS. They're 15 now after 140 episodes. Maybe 16 next week. At that rate they'll hit level 20 in 36 years

It is a contradiction but it's one of the few they'd likely make. Or just include the rule from TASHA'S CAULDRON as boxed text

A set of books like this shouldn't be like ESSENTIALS of 3.5 Ed and more like the black border reprints from the 1990s You shouldn't need to rebuy the books and it shouldn't matter what you bring to your Adventurer's League game It shouldn't change any of the rules in the book Instead, it should...
