D&D General Are you jumping ship? What will you be switching to?

[Weiley31]

While I'm not going to be jumping ship, the amount of 5E Kickstarters I back or what not will probably go down significantly. THANKFULLY stuff like Humblewood, Iron Kingdom Requiem, and the Kobold Press books I wanted to have already came out or will come out soon if they are a current kickstarter that's near fullfillment.

In the meantime, I'm gonna start getting the OSE books and will look into getting Mork Borg, Cy-Borg, Demon Dogs and Forbidden Psalms so I can get around to combining all four in an unholy combo for campaigns.

Soulbound: Era of the Beast is out in PDF form, so now I'll pretty much have all the books I need to start playing the Soulbound line by Cubicle 7.

As for 3PP 5E, I'm gonna get what I can in the form of Kamon, Undying Corruption, Steinhardt's Guide to the Eldritch Hunt, Animal Adventures: The Faraway Sea, Adventurer's Guide to the Bible and going to see into backing Azreal's Guide to Revelations as well as Acheron's games Apocalypse: John's guide to Armageddon.

And then there's DCC. I want to get the Dying Earth boxed set, Weird Frontiers, and the Class Alphabet book.

Don't see a reason to jump ship from 5e. But if I would, I'd probably develop my own TTARPG framework.

I'm becoming increasingly interested in OSR games like Shadow dark.

I want to want to play PF2 but goddam it's just so exhausting

If Wizards goes through with this, I'm not buying anything from them again. I may or may not finish off the Princes of the Apocalypse campaign that's almost done that we put on hiatus at the start of the pandemic. I'd feel a little dirty, but at the same time stopping an apocalypse might be cathartic.

Fortunately, I have plenty of other games around. Just this weekend, I started a campaign in Age of Rebellion for one of my groups. I'd love to continue with The Troubleshooters with the other. Other than those, I have other games I'd like to give a whirl, Earthdawn and TORG chief among them (if I can get one of my crews to play TORG, that is). Pathfinder 2 is of course also an option, though one of the groups soured a bit on it after Agents of Edgewatch.

Also, gotta nab Unchartered Journeys from Cubicle 7. While I was excited for the Vault 5E stuff they were planning on doing, there seems to be a possibility they are changing to the C7d6 system if things continue at this pace with the OGL changes and what not.
I would probably say it's a good idea to nab all the 5E 3PP you're interested in before somehow, Hasbro mandates that stuff like that be taken down and made unsellable.

Been checking out Ironsworn and liking what I’ve seen

FATEs an easy go to, or something entirely different -Princess World

I guess, I have already half-jumped (after our current campaign completes, I don't see myself playing 5e again), but given the state of affairs, I will also not return for 5.1e.

For a fantasy game, my go to systems would be:

• Forbidden Lands
• Dungeon Crawl Classics
• Old-School Essentials (B/X D&D)

But it's looking like our next game will rather be non-fantasy. Likely candidates are:

• Vaesen
• Call of Cthulhu/Pulp Cthulhu

I also have an ongoing game with Savage Worlds/Sprawlrunners and plan to do a couple of one-shots using Broken Compass and maybe also Dragonbane.

So all in all, I'm a multi-systems guy already, but so far D&D had a fair chunk of my attention, and it looks like that will probably decrease.

For now I suspect my group would rather stay with 5e and I plan to mainly rely on homebrew and 3rd party stuff I have or can continue to get depending on how the OGL situation goes. I

Depending on how things shake out and what OGL-based things are able to stick around I think I'm looking at the following options for future games
For D&D like: AGE, 13th Age, Pathfinder, Forbidden Lands, Symborum
For other genres: Coriolis, Unknown Armies, Shadowrun, Star Trek

 

[RoughCoronet0]

No, I don’t plan on jumping ship.

We have already switched to Savage Pathfinder for fantasy.
