    Who Should Make The Next Star Wars TTRPG, And What Should It Look Like?

    I don't think WotC/Hasbro would be interested in the SW IP for pnp RPGs at this point, it seems they are concentrating on their own IP or trying to develop their own new IP. Which I find a shame, because an official 5e compatible version of SW would be interesting! I extremely dislike...

    Any Ember backers with beta access? (spoiler friendly)

    I got alpha access during the KS. For our group I talked about a few options with some of them, Ember was an option, but in the end, we didn't go for it, and in retrospect I think that was a good call, better wait until it's done, done. As such, I haven't DMed in it. I do install the latest...

    Methodology for effecient Sandbox creation?

    If you use an existing methodology for sandbox creation, you're stuck with that specific style of sandbox. And as you indicated, you have weird tastes... ;) Wouldn't it be more efficient to streamline your own methodology? When I look at Balkan + Western, I would start with either the Earthdawn...

    What is "railroading" to you (as a player)?

    I've read them, I've absorbed them, maybe I just have a different perspective on what you wrote then you do? "Invalidates"... No, you just chose to ignore them. And isn't 'projecting' what we do as players and DMs, we roleplay a situation based on our (perceived) experience... The incident...

    What is "railroading" to you (as a player)?

    @Reynard The issue is not if you're right about it not being railroading or the player is that it is railroading. It's about what the player is experiencing. A couple of points: Your pnp RPG sessions do not exist in a vacuum, people have lives outside the game that will heavily influence how...

    D&D 5E (2024) Is WOTC done publishing campaigns?

    I wonder... Are you an American or from somewhere else? D&D was popular in the 80s across all of Europe that wasn't the Soviet Union, maybe not in the same way as it was in the US, but there were translations all over the place. But it had competition from other pnp RPGs games as well...

    D&D General D&D Archetypes that spread out to other settings and media

    Dragonborn of Bahamut in 3e are creatures that are not born, but made by Bahamut, the counterpart to Tiamat. Tiamat = Takhisis Draconians are made by clerics of Takhisis (as in the power of Takhisis makes the Draconians). 4e made the Dragonborn into a playable race in the PHB and left out the...

    D&D 5E (2024) Is WOTC done publishing campaigns?

    We weren't talking about a person that played in the 80s and doesn't play anymore. But we were also not talking about D&D fans in general. We were talking about consumers that buy D&D products now, RPG (adventure) books specifically. We don't care whether they actually play D&D or not. A FR fan...

    D&D General D&D Archetypes that spread out to other settings and media

    Dragonlance Draconians => 3.5e as an option in an expansion book => 4e as a core race in the PHB and came to all D&D settings, including FR...

    Paizo Given new store - better to buy for FoundryVTT on Foundry Marketplace or Paizo?

    And that is probably appreciated, you'll just be corrected on any inaccuracies. ;)

    Paizo Given new store - better to buy for FoundryVTT on Foundry Marketplace or Paizo?

    You do know this is how FVTT works and this happens with every purchase? Whether from the FVTT store or from the Paizo store. The added step with the Paizo store is entering the key into the FVTT website.

    Paizo Given new store - better to buy for FoundryVTT on Foundry Marketplace or Paizo?

    I previously bought all the Paizo FVTT stuff in the Paizo store due to it being the only option and the discount if you already have the PDF... Since the new store I haven't bought any Paizo FVTT stuff, I did get a PDF Humble Bundle and it seems like the PDFs are better with no visible...

    D&D 5E (2014) Official WotC 5e pdfs

    Heck, we've moved to Foundry VTT as our main way of playing, so when I have legally bought PDFs, but no official FVTT modules, I make my own. But exporting from PDF these days is text with a bunch of linebreaks (a paragraph can be easily split op in dozens of seperate lines). I remember back in...

    D&D 5E (2024) Is WOTC done publishing campaigns?

    But 1999 was when TSR was kaput and already bought by WotC two years earlier. And third edition would only release a year later (that didn't stop some of us playing 3e with the leaks from here)... After looking it up, there were more D&D products released in 1999 then I ever expected, but the...

    D&D 5E (2024) Is WOTC done publishing campaigns?

    What makes me think that you know the (current) D&D player numbers? ;)

    D&D 5E (2024) Is WOTC done publishing campaigns?

    Is the player base 10 to a 100 times larger then during the 2e era? So... Today there would be 80-800 million active D&D players world wide? If those numbers were accurate... I think last time I checked there have been 85 million players over the entire 50 year lifespan of D&D, maybe during the...

    D&D 5E (2024) Is WOTC done publishing campaigns?

    It doesn't anywhere, but unless you skip most of it, it's going to last a LONG while (experience). Compare it to hotdogs, does a food cart measure their production by the average customer or the hotdog eating champions consumption? If that food cart wants to stay in business, they look at the...

    D&D 5E (2024) Is WOTC done publishing campaigns?

    Then your group is an extreme outlier. And not the pace of adventure releases WotC/Hasbro is aiming at in the first place. There are so many great third party epic campaigns for 5e that if you are willing to go third party, you'll never have any issues with having played all the adventures ever...
