WotC D&D Universes Beyond

[Paul Farquhar]

Is not the Stranger Things boxed set a Universes Beyond type product?

We can finally get a subclass based off of Mr. Mistoffelees!

It seems a bit like when I go golfing and people just want to play a best-ball match with a couple partners for fun and not worry about each of your shots and counting everything. It is fun, but not for everyday.

If it can stay in its own box and only come out for 1-shots and such and for a few games at conventions. I would not want to play this everyday or want players to pick some spells and classes and feats to try and make 'official'.

Welcome to the capitalist world of consumed nostalgia.

Not just consumed nostalgia: instant nostalgia.

We're having remakes of shows, games, movies, etc. that aren't even that old. How to Train Your Dragon got a live-action remake...only fifteen years after it originally came out.

Like there are literally people who went to see it in theaters as children who haven't even graduated college before getting a remake!

Nostalgia is the newest open-pit mining operation of the creative space, and it's being exhausted at an even more prodigious rate than any previous one.

Frankly, I'm genuinely expecting a simultaneous movie and video game crash to reckon with the 80s video game crash--and TV isn't gonna be doing that well either. It'll be a pretty painful and crappy time, but I suspect good stuff will eventually flow from it. It could've been avoided, but, you know, tragedy of the commons and all that. Humans usually need to have disaster actually arrive before they fix their $#!+.

Maybe something Manga, I'm not really a fan, but it could draw in a whole new player base

Boring because it would not be a giant leap, but I'd love to see something like Delicious in Dungeon or Frieren: Beyond Journey's End adapted to D&D.

Similarly, stuff like DragonQuest on the videogame side would be fun to see.
