D&D 5E New WotC Survey! Learn About A New D&D Product!

WotC has launched a new survey about the future of D&D. This survey includes an NDA (which some people have not taken to well!) halfway through, which asks you not to talk about the survey on pain of being tracked down and fined, but it's about an upcoming (unannounced) new D&D product. You can find out what it is by taking the survey (or it's all over social media aready).

Bugs in the system and an overloaded site. I think that explains much of the weird strange behavior.

So it seems not using or liking Discord meant that I did not see the video. Ah well, if it is linked to Discord I don't want it anyway. Discord is a thing I am forced to use because of the pandemic and others in the group refusing to use anything else. As soon as we get back to in person gaming Discord can take a running jump.

This is certainly possible, but overall it was just a strange survey. What with all the detailed questions, but only about races; the quiz on the rules (is there someone that thinks that THAC0 is used in 5e? Really?).

What did everyone think of the phone call that you got shortly after watching the video?

I mean, Seven Days sounded super cryptic and I have no idea what that has to do with the overall survey experience.

Oh well....guess its nothing.

No NDA, no video for me. Questions were all about satisfaction with races and sub-race abilities.

No, those questions were to filter out people who don't actually play fifth edition.

I tried an experiment. Told them throughout I didn’t play 5E, but answered the questions correctly. Still got the NDA page, even though I’d specifically said I don’t play 5E.

I guess you must’ve failed the test

But, but, THAC0!

Yes, all those die-hard 2e players that wanted to infiltrate the survey by pretending to play 5e. But no, they fell into the clever trap and gave themselves away with THAC0!

I was thinking they would use it for post processing filtering of results. Though we already know the survey is pretty dynamic in what questions are given to whom. Maybe we should have a survey about the survey so we can figure out what answers resulted in what questions!
