[QUOTE="LuisCarlos17f, post: 8102290, member: 6802378"] * My first contact with Song of Fire and Ice (Game of Thrones) was precisely the dragon magazine when it was published to Spanish. * And you can bet if this works Hasbro will want to publish RPGs of more franchises. Why other companies would licence their IPs for TTRPGs? To promote these, more advertising. Hasbro has seen the TTRPGs could be the way to make money with franchises for children but for teenages and young adults who don't buy toys or watch cartoons any more. * I remember Sergeant Slaughter in Pressing Catch (and G.I.Joe cartoons). For the first Irak war Sgt. played the role of pro-Sadam evil guy for a time, and later he became pro-american again. (pure theatre, roleplaying for the masses). * I love the idea of the crossovers but with the d20 system the power balance is broken too fast. Fighters from Mortal Kombat couldn't defeat doom marine slayer's infernal enemies, (at least not with only their own fists and any melee weapon). G.I.Joe couldn't defeat easily Overwatch squads and this couldn't survive an attack by Starcraft factions. The characters of Street Fighters couldn't face without their own firearms against shooters and gunfighters as the ones from Bleeding Edge. The fighters from Mortal Kombat can survive (hurt but no killed by one-shot) gunslingers as Erron Black, Terminator, Robocop and comingsoon Rambo. In the tabletop board this is not so easy. * A crossover Fortnite: Save the World-Sunset Overdrive? [/QUOTE]
