That may have been it - I did go through and reorganize the old UA pdfs I have on file to make it easier to find things a while back. Can't say for certain, as I don't recall if the timeframe matches up, but it wouldn't surprise me. Crossed wires, et al.

No worries. Not sure where the "Psionic Soul" thing came from. Maybe I was going through the older, Tasha-era UAs at the time and a wire got crossed somewhere...

Huh... Could've sworn I remember hearing that in an interview during the UA phase that covered Sorcerers (UA 7, I think), but going back I can't seem to find it... They refer to its new name as "Aberrant Sorcery" there... This may be something my mind has somehow concocted out of thin air. If...

For what it's worth, I believe they've said the Aberrant Mind Sorcerer is going to be rebranded as the "Psionic Soul" Sorcerer in the '24PHB, so chances are pretty good that the Far Realm/Aberration flavoring of the subclass is going to be significantly more optional than it was as portrayed in...

MCDM Productions. It's a smaller TTRPG publisher that grew out of a YouTube channel run by Matt Colville, who created a hefty playlist of videos of advice on DMing, in addition to having worked in TTRPGs and video games professionally. They've put out a handful of third party books and...

Was able to download it just fine on my end - got my email ~1 hour ago. For those of us who bought the original, they seemingly bundled the revised version in with your original purchase. The email link pointed me to my original order on the web store, but the download link contained a zip file...

Just as a heads up for those interested, the Revised Illrigger has been released as of last night. Haven't had a chance to go over it in detail as of yet, but MCDM patrons can supposedly get it for free through Patreon and emails are going out to those of us who purchased the original with a...

Of course a book built around the Infinite Staircase is going to be framed as "multiverse spanning" - it's one of the major planar causeways like Yggdrasil the World Ash, connecting to places of artistic expression pretty much anywhere. EDIT: And now I realize I'm in the thread for the Vecna...

They said Quests from the Infinite Staircase is a collection of updated older adventures a la Yawning Portal and Saltmarsh, but I don't know that they're necessarily going to be the same adventures from 2e's Tales from the Infinite Staircase.

Another thing that just came to mind is the involvement of the Greyhawk goddess of fate Istus in the new 5e backstory for the Deck of Many Things. They're going to a lot of effort to make/keep Greyhawk relevant if they don't plan to do anything with it.

Also Ghosts of Saltmarsh - they went out of their way to specify that Saltmarsh was still in Greyhawk (even if they didn't really expand on it beyond that), when they could have easily made it setting neutral or even dropped it into the Forgotten Realms somewhere with fairly minimal effort.

I mean, they're still regularly drawing on characters that originated in Greyhawk to this day: Mordenkainen, Bigby, Tasha/Iggwilv, Vecna, etc.

Might be an image of Vecna from before Kas turned on him.

Don't think there's a link back to the Critical Role web store, but Darrington Press is definitely listed in the book's credits.

Darrington Press is Critical Role's publishing arm (or the one they used for that book, at least). https://shop.critrole.com/collections/books?sort_by=created-descending&filter.p.vendor=Darrington+Press

Not just you. The volume's definitely low - chat's been complaining about it.

Very nice. Definitely based off of older maps of Sigil - a lot of locations that didn't make it into the 5e release, and none of the new ones (that I can spot at a glance, at least) - but the general layout is the same.
