The issue is how Hasbro/WotC is making that money. Magic has spent the last 2 years focusing on high ticket items to a much smaller audience and it is working but the game itself is hurting. There are quality control issues and even well produced sets like Kamigawa: Neon Dynasty and Dominaria...

The OSR doesn't exist without Dancey and the OGL and 5E was designed to capitalize upon it.

Can you comment on if the MotU RPG is still going forward?

I think both Arneson & Gygax benefitted from this and that's okay. Both ended up being dumped in the end anyway.

I actually prefer digital products but I'm in the minority within my group. If it were digital only I'd just stick with the material I own for 5E on DnD Beyond and be perfectly happy.

I and my group are fully invested in D&D Beyond and if the material isn't better we might stick with 5E. I don't think we will but I'm almost 50 and I'd rather play games I know really well and don't have as much time for mastering a new version of something.

Thanks for the breakdown :)

Hasbro knows nostalgia sells but they don't seem to realize that even a little effort to support that nostalgia goes a long way.

I ran a 13th Age Campaign for about 6 months and never used the Relationship dice. Worked fine without it.

Is magic skill based, vancian/D&D, or something else?

Thanks for your honest assessment.

Congratulations to Ajit. As I was reading the article I was thinking, "I wonder if they ever found the original award?", and they did not.

Part of me wonders how many monsters will begin with "space"? That "S" section of the monster section is going to be even longer in this release.

I think I need more than a trailer to reach that conclusion.

It looks fun and I think that is what it needs to be.

Oriental Adventures at #3 was surprising to me. It was published before I got into 2E so I had no frame of reference.

The problem I have with this chart is some of those settings were in the market far longer than some of the others. I don't see how you can cmpare Forgotten Realms to Ravenloft or Dark Sun when it has almost a decade of extra sales.

I share your opinion and that is why I hope its viewed as a fix.

If Monsters of the Multiverse is a preview of the changes to monsters I'm not a big fan but I'm sure there will be further evolution. I think we will see a power creep for races and classes based on what we've seen of Tasha's and MoM. Hopefully, whatever they do to the Ranger will be viewed as a...

First, from my perspective 5E's goals and 2024's goals are very different. I think 5E embraced former players and the OSR (which has always been a very profitable part of the hobby) and emphasized rulings over rules and channeling the nostalgia of earlier editions as well as a Rosetta Stone for...
