If I'm reading google correctly Amazon sales in Bookscan were never a reliable data point. So it wouldn't influence the Bookscan results. Direct and digital seem to be the only outliers that could account for the gap. But then again, digital wasn't even an option for 2014 so how would we even...

Just watched Roll for Combat and they looked over the Bookscan sales figures for 2014 vs 2024 for the 3 core rulebooks. Apples to apples, the physical 2024 books sold about 1/3 as much as the 2014 books. That doesn't include digital or direct sales of course. RfC didn't have the digital sales...

Very cool.

Seeing that Joe's already got a draft screenplay done of Dragons of Autumn Twilight, I'd disagree with you there. Seems like a waste to just ignore that and start from scratch. Especially knowing that the original DL trilogy was what drew a lot of fans to the setting. And that they have already...

But why would Joe be there then? He's got a screenplay for the first book already done so having him there for something else seems kind of unnecessary? Anyways, having Joe, Margaret and Tracy there shows me there's hope for something halfway decent being done with the IP. If WotC's involvement...

My guess is they'll do an animated or live action Dragonlance Chronicles show of the original trilogy. I can't see any D&D products coming out at this time, since D&D is trending towards that whole franchise model.

Yup, creative marketing citing no real metrics or numbers, timeframes......nothing. I have zero interest in the 2024 rules/books and basically anything D&D related that WotC puts out these days. But this quarterly report is a big nothing burger for D&D.

I'd be down to buy this. I only played it once but I loved it and 2nd hand copies now are kinda pricy.

Doubt it. I'm still guessing its for some sort of sloppy Doomspace digital release.

There were some good lore dumps from 4e for sure, and the book layout was decent (although 3.5e was my favorite for lore, layout and rules). But the 4e core math was all messed up, to the point that the game ground to halt at higher levels. It also had the same issue that 5e has, in that PC's...

I'm just salivating looking at that photo of the full book shelves, lol. And here I am with my 1 bookshelf totally full, and a stack of 3.5e D&D books by my bed that need shelf space plus about 6 more 3.5e books in the mail on their way to me :(

It's a d6 dice pool system. 6's are good, 1's are bad. The other numbers usually don't mean anything. Each game tends to have variants on this core system. The YZ system is used for nearly all Free League's games. Alien, Blade Runner, Forbidden Lands, Mutant Year Zero, Coriolis, Twilight 2000...

My wallet is safe this week!

Baldur's Gate 3 was made by Larian Studios. The other games you mentioned were mediocre at best. And there are far more WotC produced games for D&D that bombed than were successful.

Another D&D MMORPG? Bahahaha. What is with this company and video games.

There was some mechanical weight, defilers would become corrupted over time. Gaining a penalty to Charisma and encounter checks in addition to their body physically mutating.

There was a dragon magazine article that came out that mimicked the metamagic effects we saw arcane casters get in 3.5e. I can't remember the precise issue, but it had all kinds of effects you could apply to the spell when defiling, and your casting time decreased as well.

1) Then that's even more of a suggestion that we are not going to get an actual "Dark Sun" book, but rather, something more generic, like a Doomspace book for Spelljammer. 2) In Dark Sun it does. If you dared to defile in the presence of other sentient beings, they would usually lynch and kill...
