The new Handler's Screen has been released with updated interior. The layout is a little bit different, and some errors have been corrected. The outside art is still the same though. While I don't hate it, I don't love the player facing images and art. As I tend to use the customizable screens...

HEY! I grew up in Fargo, ND. This is totally central Minnesota accent. :P

Yup that's where I ultimately landed. I'm backing the PDFs just so I can see all the changes. If i really love them I'll hunt down the core books. My HUGE cypher collection needs to be used before I can justify a new rule set or even any more Cypher books at this point. (I mean, barring the...

Arrgghh!!! Ok I'll back just the PDFs then. Maybe. Or just the core. :p

I'm struggling too. I backed it but having second thoughts. I have a shelves full of it, but never played it, and only have run numenera a few times.

Agreed the new ones are almost garish.

Sheesh i don't care for the covers. :(

There is an entire section on running modern games. Foci that are totally mundane - Infiltrates, Leads, Would Rather Be Reading, Works the System\Back Alleys, Works for a Living, Murders, Runs Away, Solves Mysteries, Looks for Trouble, etc. Using subtle cyphers one can totally run a noir, Bond...

Oof! Yikes that's bad. Ehhh Kobold Press and A5e has it figured out for 5e systems, and art, and that's more than plenty for me.

Waiting for a Micronauts RPG. :)

I think I'm just salty with a lot of WOTC. My apologies for thread crapping

What anniversary? The 50th anniversary that they did nothing for?

It had a huge uptick in popularity due to ST and COVID. Professor DM goes over this quite a bit on dungeon Craft.

What will WotC do when they don't have Stranger Things to help prop them up? I want to be excited for D&D, I really do, but there is nothing on the slate that isn't a rehash of a previous product in theme or topic.

Agreed. It's also unfortunate that Jess is a World of Darkness. Her entire life even. :P

I took ran\ run for coworkers. I rolled off 5e because no one could be bothered to read the handbook or their class. So we'll do something lighter like Basic Fantasy or Castles & Crusades. I feel the same way, I'm doing all the work and they show up, or don't, to play for a few hours...

This cover is terrible. OOF, not a fan even back then, but I did like the Dragon #90 harpy cover. A generally decent to OK issue, if I recall correctly. Man, I miss reading gaming magazines, Dragon, Shadis, Dungeon, etc.

Thanks for the chunky interview, that's a good look into what is heading our way. Also, as much as I like the old Dark Conspiracy cover, I think it looks fairly dated and cartoony, and I'm glad that they're getting their own people for the job. I'm wondering if there will be a kickstarter for...

Absolutely they do! That's just where I'm at, LoL I'm old and cranky. (Shakes fist at clouds)
