In a video released today, Matt Colville gives an update on the state of the MCDM RPG.
TL;DR: They've dropped everyone rolling 2d6 for damage and instead are using a PbtA-like three-step success ladder for abilities and skills going forward.
To be clear, there’s still no null result. It’s something like: 6- 3 damage, 7-9 5 damage, 10+ 7 damage. It’s not PbtA. It’s similar in that it’s 2d6 with three possible results. The ladder will remain the same (6-, 7-9, 10+) but the results will vary based on ability and skill.
