D&D (2024) 6E When?

[Parmandur]

Man, I would hate to be showing power point slides at that meeting!

Take Baldurs Gate and Acquisitions Incorporated, smash them together.

DMSGUILD is great for small adventures to drop in places. There is isles of great content. I dint miss em from WotC. Why do they need to be from WotC?

 

[Matrix Sorcica]

The fact that they've adapted 1e modules to 5e, like B2, and posted them on dmsguild (not the giant hardcover conversion of B2) tells you they know people want this type of product.

They haven't.

They haven't.

Really? Go look on dmsguild.com. There are about a dozen classic modules that have been converted. A bunch were converted to 3e and posted on this very website back in the day. People want the older modules because the content resonates, even though the mechanics have changed actual the editions.

WotC didn’t, not for 5e in the guild. AFAIK it was done by third parties.

 

[Parmandur]

They haven't.

Well, they published Tales from the Yawning Portal and Ghosts of Saltmarsh, and let Goodman Games do some big collected books. But that rather argues for the big compilation model.

Those are conversion documents, that is to say, guidelines for what to do with the actual module, not modules translated into 5E.

No, they're actual conversions of the stats, if I recall. Combine that with the fact that the originals are also available = you have the module translated to 5e.

Yes, that's what I said, a guide with conversion information, not a converted module, like that in Ghosts of Saltmarsh.

I would call that a new treatment or take, not a conversion.
