Daggerheart: Hope and Fear new book from Darrington Press

[TheHand]

Exciting news. I wonder if the playtest classes are more or less finalized now or if there will be any further playtest revisions? Most of them were pretty solid but the Assassin felt like it needed more time to bake.

As I have not otherwise, I suspect that the Witch will still use the Dread domain, which I'm surprised got past any sensitivity reader, given how negatively-coded the Dread domain is.

Might get a rename to “Curse” domain or something.

the Dread Domain is bad and needs more sensitivity. I'm confused. Are we talking like Ravenloft Dread Domain? A Domain of actual Dread. Where is does indeed suck all of the time?

Daggerheart is a very well made, fun TTRPG.

I do not understand why folks "need" it to be prominently streamed for them to think it is viable.

Weird zero sum thinking, that it is impossible for both Daggerheart and D&D to thrive.

Maybe this time, people will pre-order instead of not doing so then whining about availability?

Buy-it-before-you-try-it sounds very 2025, true.

Buy-it-before-you-try-it sounds very 2025, true.

It is not really an unknown quantity at this point, though. Not even the core set was, really, with the playtests.

Look, I don't preorder video games for the exact reason you are intimating. My only point was that folks got REAL MAD at Darrington for not producing enough copies for demand, even though there was a pre-order mechanism to gauge that demand. This time around, those folks can probably safely pre-order, since they already know they like DH.
