Obvious Other Third-Party Books to Include: Keith Baker's Eberron material. Original Adventures Reincarnated from Goodman Games. Hamund's Harvesting Handbook from Jasmine Yang. Neverland, Oz, and (soon) Wonderland: A Fantasy Role-Playing Setting from Andrew Kolb and Andrews McMeel Publishing...

I believe that was the "Essentials" line.

No, but I'll almost certainly pick it up when it hits DriveThruRPG.

And isn't Magitech the go-to term for Final Fantasy's aesthetic (apparently Final Fantasy VI coined the term). If cribbing off of Anime's notes is the best future for D&D...

For the record: the proper term for Eberron's aesthetic (to the point that Eberron's player base likely coined it) is "Dungeonpunk". Because the technology being extrapolated to Science Fantasy proportions is specifically sufficiently-analyzed, D&D-style, magic. Dungeon Punk - TV Tropes

Or just ignore this OneDND business and fully move to the Creative Commons SRD as the "standard" foundation.

That could also work for Psychics... or Artificers... or even Ritual Casting...

I've been using some homebrew from DNDWiki and that basically just moved the Arcane Focus to the "Class Features" section of the sheet. I agree on moving the spells with costed materials off of the Sorcs list, as well.

Moderately off topic: but did anyone ever pull anything like a Pathfinder or an Old-School Essentials with Fourth Edition? A distilled/upgraded version? The basic ideas appeal to be, but it sounds like the whole line was... inconsistent and under-polished.

I mean, if magic WAS a common thing in a Modern-Day-Earth-like setting, they would totally be putting mystic meal-replacement drinks (that also heal minor wounds) in the Coke machines. Or some lobby somewhere suppressing them into oblivion because leaving people starving is more profitable...

Saw an ad for this on the latest episode of Fool's Gold and I like what I'm seeing. My Platonic ideal of D&D (I think I mentioned this in that last Zelda/Ghibli thread) has always been: Crossing vast, picturesque, landscapes, either by road, rail, or airway... Delving into crumbling temples...

Would have expected Monte Cook to get Night Vale. They got Magnus Archives and Old Gods of Appalachia, previously.

First Edition touched on that, a fair bit: https://paizo.com/products/btpy8mgf/ https://paizo.com/products/btpy98i0/

Shoot! Here's another one! Found Familly in the Post-Apocalypse. https://jasontocci.itch.io/2400/devlog/563384/nuclear-family-10

Necro, but new supplement out! The subgenre this time seems pretty obvious. https://jasontocci.itch.io/2400/devlog/560931/junior-hybrid-battle-cryptids-10

I actually just saw Wizards, recently. It was pretty alright. I full-on cheered during the final showdown between Blackwolf and Avatar, that was nuts. Also Elinore... being Elinore (Bakshi's going to Bakshi). Don't know how you expand on it, outside of a near-past prequel or a LotR-style...

Huh, pure historicals are a bit uncommon, I think the last one I saw was Hard City a few months back.

Given what I've heard of Dungeon/Mutant Crawl Classics, wouldn't it be a bit too lethal for this setting? I'd prefer straight B/X, specifically Old School Essentials.

I hope these guys call RGS's bluff. See how far they'll take this. And, I agree, the GTA similarities are probably a greater concern.
