D&D 5E Dungeon Denizens by Goodman Games

[overgeeked]

Looks like the physical for DCC is far outpacing the physical for 5e. Which I think is opposite from last few times.

Yeah, it’s kinda weird to see. But it makes sense considering what was said in the Dungeon Craft video. The market is practically saturated with 5E monster books. But this is the first (and only) DCC monster book by Goodman Games themselves.

DCC doesn't have a first-party monster book. And this is a lot of monsters.

Exactly.

Also, while this book is probably too gonzo for how I run 5E, it completely fits both the OSR and DCC vibes, so it's a better fit with those GMs, IMO.

That said, I think everyone who buys this book is going to be thrilled with it. Goodman runs extremely good Kickstarter campaigns and they give just a mountain of quality stuff to the people who back them.

The main reason I'm hesitating is 5e vs. DCC. I don't actually play DCC but I have started playing Five Torches Deep, and it seems like converting from DCC to FTD would be easier than from 5e. On the other hand, I do play 5e.

Hmm. Choices. Choices.

I went with the DCC version, Erol Otus slipcover. Because I still wish I had gotten those slipcovers you saw advertised in Dragon magazine all those years ago.

I went DCC for now. I may also get the 5e in PDF.

All about that DCC one, going to figure out how much to fork over.

The DCC book is cheaper, and one doesn't need to be a rocket surgeon to use DCC star blocks in 5E or vice versa.

This is a great point. But doesn’t help me to come up with excuses to throw money at them so respectfully stop helping.

Oh, that's a great argument. It would be easy to use DCC stat blocks in any OSR games, too.

Well, obviously, one can never have too many d30 or d24 hanging around.
