this is simple curiosity, how well is a given game doing, in this case Daggerheart. It has nothing to do with what games I want to play, otherwise Shadow of the Weird Wizard and Tales of the Valiant would not rank so high (and Talisman Adventures would not even make the list) ;) Apart from...

maybe he should have, chances are we would have gotten more streamlined rules… I never even attempted to play RAW, while reading the books for the first time, I frequently made a mental note to not use some part at all because there was so much overhead involved

same, I usually stick to the core or at most one additional rulebook (like Xanathar’s). Beyond that I consider it bloat with diminishing returns. Given how few WotC released in the 10 years, they seem to share that reluctance

So I take it this is what the new map covers (the red rectangle is the old Schley map)

huh, any info on what makes their edition exclusive / different?

I am not sure what premise you refer to, the one where the target price is a fraction of the actual internal target / required minimum? Yeah, I can see one man shops that are new to this be completely wrong about what their target should be and actually having a target of $1000 or whatever...

I can see someone wanting 5 out of the 12 and buying only 3 or 4, but only 1 if they previously bought 3 out of 4 regularly? I can see someone who bought everything religiously lower their number of total purchases, much like I can see someone who only occasionally bought a book buying slightly...

Shadow of the Weird Wizard yes, it’s easily compatible with 5e, Shadow is not, but will still be pretty familiar

beggars can’t be choosers, the TTRPG space is very different today from the 1e days As to 1e today (your is), unless you count the OSR as 1e, I do not believe it is popular at all

given that the premise was that the target is a made up number that is way too low, it does not really make much of a difference whether you hit ‘ridiculously too low’ or ‘far too low’ to break even

Shadow of the Weird Wizard / Demon Lord when it comes to the wider 5e landscape, Tales of the Valiant when it comes to the ‘clones’

they were bad at capitalism for a lot more reasons than releasing a lot of products though. To the point that I am not so sure whether that even had anything to do with their downfall. Selling below manufacturing cost, and that on some pretty well selling products, cannot have helped. Nepotism...

if you exclude S&H, yes

start it this weekend, the KS will still be going for a while
