...Or Where is the Game Heading?
If you’re reading this blog and you haven’t been living under a very sturdy rock, you know that Dungeons and Dragons has released a new edition.
D&D is the flagship of role-playing games, and when a new edition is in the works it is one of the few games in the hobby that makes the news. A reboot of an edition is a great opportunity: people who've only heard about the game or who last played it many years ago are reminded that it still exists, and as it launches, they have an opportunity to get into it in an easy way.
All of that makes the recent launch the most excitement that fans of the game have seen since, well,
the last launch. The launch is over now, and so the question I’d like to raise is: “where do we go from here?”
Well to answer that, we have to talk about where “here” is, and how we got there. Buckle up, it's going to get bumpy.
