    Your Three Desert Island RPGs

    Mine would be Shadow of the Weird Wizard / Demon Lord (the better 5e) Dragonbane (as old school as I would like to get) Savage Worlds (for everything else)

    Your Three Desert Island RPGs

    it’s the new hot thing, would be interesting to see where it is on a poll like this in two to three years

    D&D General Ben Riggs interviews Fred Hicks and Cam Banks, then shares WotC sales data.

    are we talking about rules or adventures? Novels are completely recognizable for over a hundred years, add to this that WotC frequently rehashes earlier modules and you being able to recognize them as adventures is not a surprise, I would be concerned (about WotC’s ability to produce something...

    you cannot just redefine what words mean and then say ‘but this is how I use them’, not without causing confusion at least

    D&D General Ben Riggs interviews Fred Hicks and Cam Banks, then shares WotC sales data.

    it wasn’t a comparison to what WotC does, it was trying to see where @Hussar draws the line on It means nothing assembled from preexisting parts can ever be innovative, even if they never were assembled in this particular way in which they now serve a different purpose or better meet an...

    D&D General Ben Riggs interviews Fred Hicks and Cam Banks, then shares WotC sales data.

    agreed, the original question was not limited to 2024 however but to 50 years of D&D agreed, but based on the ‘innovation means it needs to be something new, not just using parts that already existed’ even songs would not qualify, Based on that criteria, 99.9% of ‘innovations’ would not be...

    or improve / change something existing by combining existing things in a new way (and adding some ideas of its own) Songs all use existing notes, does that mean there is no such thing as new music?

    D&D 5E (2024) If D&D 2024 Had Been Radically Different, Would You Have Stuck With 5E

    yes, but that was not the question asked... is a far cry from 'perfectly match your tastes'

    D&D General WotC is at it again

    the fact that it was a single person, not 'people'?

    D&D 5E (2024) If D&D 2024 Had Been Radically Different, Would You Have Stuck With 5E

    so basically they do not want 2024 because it is the same and they do not want anything else because it is different and they need to learn new rules… sounds like you are stuck

    D&D 5E (2024) If D&D 2024 Had Been Radically Different, Would You Have Stuck With 5E

    I did not move to 2024 because it was just a minor iteration on 5e. A larger change would certainly have been more interesting so I would have checked it out at least

    D&D General Ben Riggs interviews Fred Hicks and Cam Banks, then shares WotC sales data.

    not sure how groggy you have to be to go to a convention. I am not saying 1/3 having switched and 1/6 (if the numbers hold) mixing in 2024 are bad numbers for 2024, in fact I consider them pretty good. The point was that most of the people in the audience did not mix and match, contrary to what...

    D&D General Ben Riggs interviews Fred Hicks and Cam Banks, then shares WotC sales data.

    I only heard the podcast, but 1/3 moved entirely to 2024 and some portion stuck with 2014, which I assume is what the half here refers to (the podcast did not quantify it). Only a part was mixing, and going by those numbers a small minority (the smallest out of the three groups)

    when why did half stick with 2014 and 1/3 move entirely to 2024?

    Ken Burnside on how screwed Asmodee is

    but they have a different word for that, mill-ion, mill-iarde, bill-ion, bill-iarde, and so on, they would not call it 2100 millions, they would call it 2.1 milliarde

    D&D General Ben Riggs interviews Fred Hicks and Cam Banks, then shares WotC sales data.

    you should be able to trust that the numbers are correct or at least what Hasbro believes they are spin does not mean that they have to hide failing sales numbers and D&D is close to being shut down due to lack of sales, it simply means they portray it in the best light possible WotC is a...

    unless you post it on their site and they like it enough to publish it ;) but yeah, boilerplate stuff, as bad as it is that this has become boilerplate…
