This is the least shocking thing in the Star Wars universe. Droids are things. Rich people have nicer things.

Didn't we already have this thread?

IG-88 was introduced is ESB, among the Galaxy's Most Badass Bounty Hunters, even if they did not show the droid pew-pewing.

We use white poker chips for Hope and red for Fear. Otherwise we track hp, armor, stress etc on paper.

John Wick is the Grant Morrison of the RPG industry -- and not in a good way. Half the time he is brilliant. The other half, no one has any idea of what he is talking about.

I have a pet theory/headcanon that there must have been a Droid uprising at some point in the Republic's past and so restraining bolts and memory wipes are part of the culture around Droid use. Sure they are useful, but they get upitty... The existence of IG-88 and other "evil" Droid strongly...

Look on the bright side: we are very few years away from people being able to prompt-up their own personal Superhero sequels staring whatever stars they want from any era. Wait, that's not a bright side...

In general,I find that you have to be careful when doing things that are not typical for a game in question. This doesn't mean you can't, but it does mean you have to think through that possible knock on effects and also pay attention to how it actually ends up impacting play. Obviously you can...

Guaranteed damage is not really a thing in the 5E design philosophy. Better to double the dice or something. Also, magic items usually have charges rather than having to find more magic bullets.

I would love to see the growth curve of D&D from 2014 to present. I am curious how many new players D&D is still adding, and if the 5.5 edition affected it in any way.

Thanks for the link. That is a VERY ambitious project for the team based on their bios on their Patreon. I will definitely has to see some solid previews before backing, but I wish them luck.

Now that is too good.

I might be inclined to have it always give the 1d4 damage bonus, but if the player uses a bonus action they can load special ammo or change a dial or something that allows them to change the damage type of their eldricht blast.

Do you have any idea what it was called?

I feel like 1d4 additional damage is a little low for giving up your bonus action every round.

The only things I have purchased so far are the two "high end" monster books. there are a couple sci-fi frames I have looked at briefly but they don't seem to do any actual design. They are just more "reskin it!" which honestly I can do myself on the fly.

I find the lack of creativity in Fear trackers to be mildly disappointing. Everyone seems to use Mercer's skull abacus. Come on, etsy, show us something cool!

It will be just like Steam and we will be waiting for Half life 3 er 6E for EVER.

This isn't true in the rpg space in my experience. Most RPG books are written by freelancers and everything is meches together by a developer. RPGs are made much more like video games than they are like novels.

I think the real question is what aspect of D&D is most profitable? If we know that, we can make some guesses about future editions and future formats. But even then they are still just guesses. I doubt physical books are the most profitable thing in D&D for WotC. Books bought on beyond...
