[QUOTE="Parmandur, post: 9565340, member: 6780330"] Thing is, they might not have been final in August when they announced them...but they were likely [I]feature complete[/I] already, hence why they felt comfortable announcing the contents in bullet point form. I wouldn't expect any further play options beyond what they enumerated...because if they were doing it, they would list on the PR info. For the record, this is what was said: When we revisited the core rules for fifth edition D&D, we were spurred to also revisit the game’s most popular setting: the Forgotten Realms. The setting will be featured in two full-sized sourcebooks—The Forgotten Realms Player Guide (working title) and The Forgotten Realms Adventure Guide (working title). The Forgotten Realms Player Guide contains everything players and Dungeon Masters need to play in this beloved D&D setting. It contains a setting overview for new and returning players, as well as the following player options: [LIST] [*]Subclasses [*]Feats [*]Backgrounds [*]Spells and a new type of spell [*]Key information on factions such as the Harpers and Zhentarim and how to join them [/LIST] The Forgotten Realms Adventure Guide will be a trove of information and resources for Dungeon Masters to create their own epic fantasy adventures. It will also contain five in-depth setting guides for iconic locations in the Forgotten Realms that support a variety of adventure genres: [LIST] [*]Baldur’s Gate [*]Calimshan [*]The Dalelands [*]Moonshae Isles [*]Icewind Dale [/LIST] [URL unfurl="true"]https://www.dndbeyond.com/posts/1807-d-d-direct-recap-a-look-at-two-forgotten-realms[/URL] [/QUOTE]
