So "perfect" is a very high hurdle. For my answer, I guess it would have to be a game that had no supplements or if it did, they either added nothing or just were so inferior it just made more clear that all you needed was the main book. Furthermore, said book would have to leave no real ideas...

I kick-started Victoriana, so it is the big one for me. Daggerheart also has my attention.

Some really solid ideas here. Thanks. Only bit that I'm less all in for is the heritage variety solve. But that comes down to GM style and how willing one is to enforce option limitations. All told, some great pitches here.

On the short list of things that would get me to quit DnD.

Kinda resentful that I am going to keep seeing this gormless fool's face on the opening screen when I log on here for the next few weeks.

It's perfectly practical, for you. I already have issues with minis that drastically extend past the base on the table. In this pick, the wing on our right is in essence a full additional base wide if not longer. Again, for me, a lovely plastic statue, but a likely impractical gamepiece...

So, it looks gorgeous.... But those wings, just not practical on the table at a game. A display piece.

Totally thought this was going to be about a radical regression in art direction for the product line that was incoming.

Is it just me or does this thematic space seem to be popular right now. Downton Abbey Magical Investigators.

Watch out for dem Pinkertons!

So lets break this down: It's not announced. If they were in the process of making a game, then it would make sense to announce it along with the show. Now, perhaps if the show does well, they might then produce a game. But this isnt likely as game production takes years. Lets be generous and...

Totally true. But I saw nothing announced so that likely means its not in production.

I have to admit that I thought that this was going to be a game. It just being a show is super disappointing.

In my current campaign the PCs are excavating a huge city underground that belonged to a race of Necromancers who came from the stars. Researchers call them the "Ur."

I buy the book. I wish to use the book to run my game. The book does not in fact reflect the rules of the game. In order to use the rules as written, I have to use the online version. The book no longer represents the game. But that said, Ive stated my position. Moving along.

It's not hyperbolic to speak about my own experiences. I bought the 4th ed PHB when it dropped. Because they had an online client, they were regularly making rules changes that were not just small clarifications or grammar corrections, but functional changes. Magic Missile is the best example.

Let's avoid hyperbolic exaggeration of harms as a means to belittle concerns. No one is claiming that buying a bad produce is equal to dying in a plane crash. I know it's the internet. Try to read scale.

It's a pointless binary to have the only choices be 'Perfection" and "Anything else". There is no perfect. There is a professional product being released at a significant price point by a multi-billion dollar industry leader. I will save my forgiveness for sloppy products for the indie projects...
