MCDM just put up their first announcement for playtesting on their discord. They were flooded with responses. I missed it by an hour and it was already full. Good luck and good gaming everyone. Can't wait for the next round.

Do we know much of anything at this point?

Some bits of that negotiation system might be useful, but on the whole it does sound overly designed. I like the idea of patience and I've been using things like goals, shortcuts, etc for NPCs for years. It just makes sense to do so. But yeah, that doesn't sound awesome as a full subsystem to play through.

same thought. The 2d6 kind of makes sense though.....Most of what I've bought form MCDM is over engineered for my taste....(the monster book isn't mostly, though I've ignored the summoning stuff as it is pages and pages long)

It seems like something that their playtesters will pick up on and provide feedback on.
