I agree you'd have to tweak a lot of things that last for a minute or similar, but if we went with 10 second rounds for 6 rounds per minute, most combats are over in 6 rounds. But this is just a result of someone making a decision at some point that made sense at that time. It is reasonable...

More likely some people just can't understand other people liking changes they don't. Therefore, the financial books are cooked. That or some people are just persistent pessimists. We've been reading about the imminent collapse, enshitification, micro transactions, AI ruining everything and...

Likely too much of a commitment for the target market. It sounded cool, if they could have done what they were talking about but whoever greenlit it underestimated the level of effort required (something I've seen time and again) and overestimated the potential market.

I agree that it's a good think they didn't fall for the sunk cost fallacy. On the other hand in an ideal world different teams, or more likely some manager who didn't really understand the market but got all excited because they read an article somewhere, talking to each other and making a...

I wish the developers luck, unfortunately projects shutting down like this is all too common. I thought the idea had some potential, but it was always a gamble especially when Maps and other company's products do the majority of what most people actually need.

Companies try out products that don't succeed all the time, software projects, in particular, fail on a regular basis.. Unless it has a significant impact on their bottom line or was a major strategy focus of the company, there's not really a need to discuss it. Companies are run by people...

So if that commercial kind of makes me want to buy a Jaguar, does that make me an evil super villain? Hmm ... on the other hand my players might agree that I am.

If the weight of the bottle and the guesstimated volume of liquid is something that matters to you, there are a few choices. The amount of fluid is around 4 oz and therefore it takes at a round or two to drink The potion is 1 oz of liquid and the container is unusually heavy for some reason...

Does anyone really think investors really care about D&D book sales unless they're hemorrhaging money? MtG is all they really care about and because of the success of BG 3 they'd like more of that sweet video game profit as well. The TTRPG could be canceled tomorrow and they likely wouldn't bat...

That's a whole lot of assumptions when we know that potions are 1 ounce. There are many reasons the potion is listed as 1 pound which has been listed before. The most likely one is to keep the math simple, healing potions arr one of the few potions you're going to carry enough of that weight is...

Or quoting bookscan data out of context when that data is only part of overall sales.

The problem with hypotheticals is that if you ask 3 different posters on this forum what their hypothetical release would have looked like you'll get 6 different answers. It could always have been better, it could always have sold more. Whether or not being significantly better is a realistic...

That actually would be kind of cool. Still waiting for more details and I'm not certain how much I would use, but there's some possibilities there.

But then you still need to account for the weight of the container for the vial, the end result is the same.

My character wants something like this

Huh. So we need a diety adventure now? Are our characters suddenly overweight? What happened to body positivity!

I wouldn't be surprised if the first month or three 2024 PHB outsold the first month or three of the 2014 PHB because the fanbase has grown so much. But we'll never know, nor will we know how many people are simply going online and not purchasing books at all. Doesn't really add much to...

It's no surprise that they want to expand more into video games, they can make a lot more money than they ever will TTRPG. Of course it does come with high risk as well, time will tell.
