Midnight

I'm pretty sure that the deal for one CS and one adventure was all they wanted, though. I think they said something about that being about all that was profitable with liscensed games.

That could very well be the case. Even a setting like WoT, with a built in audience, just isn't something like FR where people expect and will buy supplement after supplement.

Well, okay, Star Wars keeps getting stuff, too, but even WoT is overshadowed by the behemoth that is SW. :)

It's pretty much this way for all campaign settings, not just licensed products, thus FFG's prudent publishing schedule. Only the power of the excellent fans that Midnight is blessed with can change that, and they have!

I can't wait to see what you guys put out!

Wil,
Are you going to be on anything else that comes out based on Midnight? Or are you done with the setting, besides the support on againsttheshadow and the yahoo group.

I'm going to be writing the Midnight adventure for Dire Kobold, beyond that nothing's been set in stone, although I certainly hope to be able to do more.

Also it should be mentioned that this first adventure we're doing is a something of a test. If it does really well, then with all products that do really well there would be an incentive to do more. and Midnight could have adventure support for quite a while. If it does less well (I sound very politically correct) then there would be less incentive.

Also if you want to give us some input on the Midnight adventure there is a thread set up just for that purpose over in the DireKobold forums
 


Its usually all just a matter of sales. Based on the conversations I've had with several companies publishing D20 books who have also published campaign settings, they make most of their money off the core setting book. After that a few people buy the add-ons, but that's usually a much smaller percentage of the people that bought the book. Ultimately whether or not you publish more is determined not by the amount of interest there is in a product, but by how feasible it becomes to publish them. Midnight's expansion books must have done extraordinarily well for FFG to want to continue publishing books for it, which is good. I bought into the setting, and I'm not at all sorry I did so.

I know I'm not the only one that will be picking up every supplement, adventure, and novel that comes down the pipe. :D

Can't wait for the next one Wil! :)

Personally I just want a god named Nightfall in Midnight and a Sage named Ash Baylen in there as well. ;)

Yea!! Though since Midnight has no more gods, I'd guess you'd just have to settle for an up-and-coming Night King.

I'd give anything to see the name Ashrem Bayle in print as the High Legate of Theros Obsidia. :D
