    D&D 5E (2014) Why no announcement for a Wizard's Presents 2023 for August yet?

    I for one am looking forward to Edgin showing up in the post credit scene of Barbie.

    If they do add rolling I imagine they'll add an achievement for re-rolling your stats 100 times or something like that.;)

    D&D General Baldur's Gate 3 will now be releasing August 3rd on PC and September 6th on PS5, increased level cap, race & class details and more

    Oh yeah while Baldur's Gate 3 is going to sell very well Starfield will be massive on PC and moving it from being a week away to being a month away means more PC gamers will pick up both at launch instead of choosing only one.

    D&D General Baldur's Gate 3 will now be releasing August 3rd on PC and September 6th on PS5, increased level cap, race & class details and more

    Hopefully since they're making changes they release a manual or list of all of their class/subclass/spell features before release so I don't have to spend hours at the character creator.

    Yeah give the PS5 version was actually delayed a week I imagine the PC build is much further along.

    Larian has always been a very PC focused developer so hopefully this means the PC version is in good shape.

    D&D General Baldur's Gate 3 will now be releasing August 3rd on PC and September 6th on PS5, increased level cap, race & class details and more

    From the new Steam news Post: Probably best to read it on Steam since this forum had some issues with the formatting of the post. Where to begin. This week has seen you take to the streets of the Lower City as amateur sleuths in Blood in Baldur’s Gate, a community murder mystery to uncover the...

    D&D Movie/TV D&D Movie Hit or Flop?

    Are you talking about Batman 89? That had a $48 million budget and made $411 million worldwide, it certainly made money for Warner. It did also revitalize the Batman brand with the public which WB has been benefiting from for decades.

    D&D 5E (2024) Review of 1D &D VTT

    I wonder how many groups actually run a 100% RAW D&D game. I got a feeling a good number of DMs have at least a few homebrew rules which might turn a lot of people away.

    WotC Hasbro Bets Big on D&D

    It's not like the VTT is going to be a one and done thing, I imagine we'll continue to see official DND content come out just as quickly if not more quickly than the past few years. I'm guessing all newly made official WotC content will need to be in the VTT when it launches on Beyond and in...

    WotC Hasbro Bets Big on D&D

    I had forgotten that apparently Hasbro had hired 350 people for D&D Beyond. I assume that's mostly for the VTT but Hasbro must have sky high expectations on how much money it's going to bring in to hire that many people. If it doesn't do gangbusters I could see the D&D division getting some...

    D&D Movie/TV D&D Movie Hit or Flop?

    Honestly I suspect the 2 biggest reasons the film stumbled at the box offices were 1. Release timing. Way too many movies coming out around that time, with films that were already fairly large film franchises or big media franchises, like Creed 3, John Wick 4, and Mario. 2. Does the general...

    D&D 5E (2024) D&D 5.11 - the time of big change is over

    Even though it probably didn't get a "wow" reaction from the community I thought standardizing what levels every class gets subclass features was a good move for streamlining the game. It could also allow things like subclasses that work across multiple classes.

    D&D Movie/TV D&D Movie Hit or Flop?

    Yeah I imagine that the Super Mario movie took up all the premium/higher priced screens from Honor Among Thieves after it's first weekend and kept them to itself given how well Mario did, which really hurt HAT box office take.

    D&D Movie/TV D&D Movie Hit or Flop?

    New York Times has an article about Universal's VOD strategy, which includes Universal talking about how much some of their recent movies have made on VOD. Unfortunately it is paywalled but some relevant quotes here: The top grossing movie of the year, Super Mario, made around $75 million...

    D&D Movie/TV D&D Movie Hit or Flop?

    Ehh I want to see the film succeed because I loved it and want a sequel. I'm also being realistic based on it's box office numbers. It probably lost a good amount at the box office based on its budget and marketing costs. I hope it makes enough at the secondary markets to get a sequel but I'm...

    Pathfinder 2E Pathfinder Gallowspire Survivors videogame announced

    A Steam page for BKOM's second Pathfinder game just went up. It appears to be a Vampire Survivors type game. Personally I enjoy Vampire Survivors but I'm disappointed that neither of the 2 announced Pathfinder games are CRPGs using the 2e rule set.
