I per-ordered Descent from Avernus and just received notice about this significant delay. I guess I should have supported my LGS. Cancelled the order and will be getting the book from local shop instead. Anyone know if there is a more significant issue with the print run or something?

Is this what is known as 'whatabouttery'? Of course we could say the same thing and many of us do--I refer you to Patton Oswalt's classic rant about Hawkeye and Black Widow as B-list heroes. In the case you cite this is a problem just as the Chult and, evidently, Descent books suffer in the...

Doesn't have to be Elminister. To take an obvious example, what are the high level PCs who just finished Mad Mage doing? Retired to run their tavern in Waterdeep while all hell breaks loose (literally)?

Pants-on-head zanny fun in a D&D game is not to everyone's taste. I am not buying the book but I am happy it was released.

Same here. Harsh truth.

Which I am not backing but will buy when it eventually reaches Book Depository.

Can I just say how refreshing it is for a company to just go ahead and make a product and release it rather than do a KS?

You can pretty much ignore the chronology if you want.

The art is fantastic.

I noticed this last night. Preferable option than Twitch accounts for some.
