I have read this tired narrative quite a bit. Some of my groups favorite adventures since 5E came out were horror adventures. All modules off the DMs Guild of varying quality. Horror is an atmosphere that a decent DM can cultivate regardless of the system. Heroic or high fantasy does not...
I wonder how helpful these surveys really are. I suspect they overly represent people who are angry or have negative feelings and under represent those who are more satisfied.
I loved these books in 2E and would definitely support this project. Though I would like the Wizards handbook or caster handbook to include Sorcerer a Warlock, even more.
Based on over 30 years experience as a DM and player I agree. Sandboxes can be a lot of fun but they are a lot of work and it is pretty common for the DM, players or both to lose the plot or tension that make the game compelling.
Same here. Drivethru PoD is garbage. If I really like a project like that I may back at the PDF and print it through Lulu but I have to feel motivated.
I don’t mind the price increases just wish they were also improving the quality. The color saturation and binding are still pretty poor even compared to POD places like Lulu.
