What's the point of three straight seasons without Xenk in

@bedirthan It really makes me wonder how he looks back on that show to give up that cash to be there.

@Alphastream 384 pages each in the new core, which means actual new written words and not just increased fonts and art ;)

@bedirthan It’s weird, because that’s a larger number than they said before! It’s still not that huge given the font and art change!

Do I keep checking my email for @mtblack 's next newsletter? Yes.

Is it because I hope I'm in it? YES.

Is it because it's a great newsletter? Also yes!

@bedirthan @mtblack I know that feeling!

Why should you learn about other games even if you are only going to play

Because listing to @MasteringDnD review of Daggerheart helped me break my thoughts on how to break Alignment and TIBF in a way that amplifies roleplay and character personality.

@bedirthan @MasteringDnD Ooh? Now I want to know more. I really wish Dragonlance had leaned into alignment.

I think tonight’s game should be a lot of fun!

@bedirthan Not truly, but I wanted to really lean into it. Lots of fun!

I'm going to shoot my shot and submit samples for that DnDBeyond freelance gig

Alphastream,
@Alphastream@dice.camp avatar

@bedirthan Are they requesting samples now?

Alphastream,
@Alphastream@dice.camp avatar

@bedirthan I really don’t know. They really should have an actual call for writers with clear guidance. Provide examples that show your wheelhouse but also that you understand theirs. The recent Maps articles do a nice job of showing off platform benefits and DM tips.

Alphastream,
@Alphastream@dice.camp avatar

@bedirthan @newbiedm Yeah, that one and one for Storm King.

It would be a great story if the data showed D&D the along a financial hit from the OGL. I’m a big fan of the community rising up.

But, the data does not show that. If anyone has an actual source beyond an ICv2 throwaway quote, I would love to hear it. Every chart and figure suggests no impact and D&D doing stronger than other industry segments in the post-pandemic period. The OGL debacle has had many impacts, but I don’t see a financial one.

Alphastream,
@Alphastream@dice.camp avatar

@dnddeutsch I did all my analysis yesterday, and I always look for an OGL angle, so I was surprised to see this claim by EN World. Looks like it comes from an ICv2 quote with no basis for it.
