What's the over/under on exploding heads before people realize this isn't a D&D release?

idk the initial shock from the first book probably wore everyone out. the fact this thread almost went 3 hours without a comment seems indicative of this.

I assume most people who are not into CR simply haven't noticed yet, and it's also a book that's quite easy to ignore. Pretty sure that eventually people will show up and complain (because this is the Internet), but most are probably already setting their minds on the next hype caused by vague teases from WotC (and the subsequent disappointment).

About as many as buy the comics, backed the Kickstarter, and preordered the dnd book?

It was announced on the Critical Role livestream last night, and the Twitch commentators sounded pretty excited. It sounded like an interesting read. I'll probably pick it up eventually, but I didn't feel a powerful urge to preorder it right away.

So when people around here ask, "What's Critical Role? I've never heard of it!" I can just tell them to go read the book on it

It’ll be interesting to see whether a CR-only book sells as well as a D&D/CR book. If it does, it will say a lot about the relative branding.

hmm that is a fair point, though I feel like "look at all this cool setting info and art about a world you like" gets more attention than book full of interviews, especially in our current age of social media.

Seems like you should have an ENWORLD sponsored campaign that is video/podcast, Morrus.

We’ve had several over the last few years, with outfits like Tablestory and Encounter Roleplay.
