Well, I'd argue that VII is arguably the most popular Final Fantasy... but it's got a lot of things (firearms chiefly) that make it not as great a fit for D&D. I'll add, Castlevania also seems like a good fit for D&D. And I suppose I should mention Street Fighter as it is getting the MTG...

Well, on Star Wars... it's like printing money, who wouldn't want the license? I get their strategy is all over the place, but it's hard to imagine anyone saying "no" to it. I very much agree on Harry Potter, it's in rough straits. But again, the business folks may think it means money. I still...

Huh, I looked up Rowling on this... apparently Games Workshop pitched her a miniatures Quidditch game and even made mockups, but she rejected it. The rumor says she doesn't like the idea of anyone quanifying what is/is not possible in the Wizarding World (which sounds like something she would...

Maybe! I'm wondering which property both sort-of makes sense to work as a D&D crossover, is big enough to generate excitement, and makes sense in a business perspective (the company holding the property doesn't mind lending its IP to the big toy company). The big ones that stand out to me are...

One note on this... I'm actually really surprised how much IP already has a TTRPG set up already. The number of established proprties that have made something in the past few years has sped up in what seems like an exponential way. The ones I can list off that have something, and something...

Well, I won't speculate on what's happening in 5 years! I'm focused on what might be announced... tomorrow!

Cubicle 7 has the rights for making Warhammer Fantasy, 40k and Age of Sigmar TTRPGs. I find it highly unlikely that GW will cede that ground so easily. The card crossover I understand, as Games Workshop has failed any card games they try to make (unless it's combined with miniatures in a box).

This is the last post I can find on the subject, last October; Edge Studio to Create Star Wars Roleplaying Games Edge I think releases products pretty slowly, but the production quality and art looks really superb. They're releasing Midnight pretty soon, looks like it may be good.

Doesn't Edge Studio (a successor to Fantasy Flight's TTRPG stuff) have the rights? I know rights are a funny thing and can change/expire, and I don't think they've actually made anything new, but it's prominent on their website. https://edge-studio.net/categories-games/starwarsrpg/

My recommendation, is make your riddle, and if it's looking like it's too hard to answer, let a high INT PC do a skill check. If successful, give them a hint! Any more mechanicization of riddles than that though... I'll be honest, will not be that fun. Skill checks are only fun if both failure...

Well that leads to another question... if that's true, what is the next most popular old adventure that TSR doesn't hold the rights to? Might be a good contender for the next OAR if Goodman can go to that rights holder. Only one I can think of is the Caverns of Thracia, also by Jacquauys.

Well, it sounds like they haven't finished it anyway, so it doesn't hurt to have a few months to finish their product.

I'm out of the loop on this one, what was the big problem?

Could you provide some examples of the monsters? Just the names is good, but maybe one stablock would be nice... I'm curious if at least the monsters have some interesting design behind them. Also I'm curious if they statted out Dark Souls bosses, or stuck with the normal monsters.

I'm wondering if we have taken the hints from Winninger's tweets a little too seriously. They've always caveated that items are subject to change, I wouldn't really be surprised if things teased a year or two ago have been moved back or delayed to make room for an MTG book closer to the card set...

You could probably add that Ravenloft is largely reprinted and expanded in Curse of Strahd. Queen of the Spiders... I'd love to see at least the last part get OAR treatment.

Had to look Thuber up... not many movies under his belt, definitely mixed. We're the Millers and Red Notice aren't bad, but Skyscraper?

I mean, there's the business reason, simply being that WotC doesn't want ANYONE to make older edition material because they want everyone to be focused on the edition they release official content for. To be clear, I don't really agree with this... I think opening up all editions would make...

Dark Tower is considered one of the best dungeon crawls, and we knew it was coming, so really no impact on me! Glad to see they'll remake the best.
