    What Does the RPG Hobby Need Now?

    One of my best D&D memories is reading the BECMI "Gazetteer" series, one-at-a-time, as they were published. The mystery, build up, and eventual reveal of the "Land of the Red Sun" or the Hollow World kept me excited for at least a year . . . Hard to replicate that experience nowadays. :(...

    D&D General Roll20 Demiplane Integration Beta is Live

    Didn't Roll20 steal him from Demiplane before they bought Demiplane? Or was that another VTT company . . .

    What Does the RPG Hobby Need Now?

    For long term fans plugged into the online community, perhaps. But casual and new fans don't visit the DM's Guild looking for adventures, but they actually DO search out the mainstream releases either in physical book/game stores or online retailers like Amazon. How many folks have purchased...

    Kinda. Adventurer's League modules don't have the same reach as something put out in stores.

    D&D General Roll20 Demiplane Integration Beta is Live

    Are you sure it didn't "catch on"? Do you have numbers? Demiplane seems a robust platform to me, with a bunch of important partnerships, including Paizo. Their 5E Nexus seems to have stalled, but the other game systems they offer seem to be doing well.

    I haven't used either yet with gaming books, so I don't know. I've tried epub novels, but being used to the simplicity of the Amazon Kindle walled garden, I didn't like my brief foray into epub.

    What Does the RPG Hobby Need Now?

    This is me with Return to Dark Tower. My play group loves this as a break from our D&D sessions, but . . . I had to buy the game, and I am the "game expert". They just show up to play. Which would be okay, if one of them went and purchased some other expensive game they could be the owner-expert...

    What Does the RPG Hobby Need Now?

    The Jada line (they have D&D figs too) are cast metal and the paint jobs are similar to the quality you'll see on WizKids pre-painted plastic . . . not very good. They are also significantly larger scale than standard 25-30 mm figs. The products lines are also limited to just a few entries per...

    What Does the RPG Hobby Need Now?

    Well, yeah . . . the situation is different in Europe, Japan, and other places outside the US and the British Commonwealth. ENWorld is run from the UK, the hobby at large originated in and is still centered around the US . . . so that's the bias of most of us here. But it's a good reminder...
