Who's excited for this?

>What is this? An image for Dwarves?

Kidding aside excited to see the first adventure post Curse of Strahd. They seem to have remembered how to write adventures now and I'm excited to play this with my area's very disorganized organized play.

...once we finish dicking around in the sandbox that is Barovia.

I am excited to see the playable version of Orcs, Firbolgs, and possibly goblinoids, as well as reprints of the playable Minotaur from UA, Arakocra from EE, and what ever else they have.

I think Forgotten Realms' giants are pretty nifty, so I'll keep an eye on it, sure.

I'll be even more interested if it turns out it's not shit.

>>48175599
I want monsters like barghests, devourers, swordwraiths, atropals, gibbering mounds, and klurichirs back! Not to mention fey! Lots and lots of fey, especially the unseelie court! I want more monsters! Moooooooooore!

>>48175043
Not me. I want a PHB 2 or a Monster manual 2. Hell, any core book v2.

>>48176202
>firbolgs
Oh shit I'd forgotten that. Wild Hunt party is a go!

>sword coast fetch quest

No thanks, hopefully I can incorporate new spells into my setting

>>48178829
There's a really boring one in the Unearthed Arcana articles, and an okay homebrew from the guy who made Ebberon.

>I want splat book bloat
Get out of this hobby, they almost buried the game with two editions of fucking class, feat, and spell splats. All it did was make min maxers have new toys to ruin games with and put off any newer player. Lord help me when 4e tried to reboot itself mid stream and made every older book unusable with errata.

>>48178459
They've talked about this. You know how people bitched about the Monster manual not having 3 pages devoted to fluff and 1 page with stats? This addresses it, it's going to be a giant fluff book. They've mentioned they're not adding new books unless they're themed or an adventure modle, I can see them breaking this but they haven't shown signs yet cause they ahven't burried us in "hurr durr thief variant 7 and cleric variant 54 with fighter variant 8 that can't do anything well!" like all the 3.5 splats they shat out.

4e's release schedule was perfectly fine, and the quality went steadily upwards until Mike Mearls (the 5e lead designer) brought out Essentials.

If the writing is as good as the old 2E Volo's Guides series then it should be pretty good fluff.

>>48184071
They haven't exactly buried us in variants, but there are a LOT of fighter subclasses in UA.

>>48175043
If its good I may use it for a different system. I always like good adventures. And settings.

Mystic when? That's all I really want to see.

>>48186762
Probably the non-adventure book after Volo's Guide. I'm hoping for spring but betting on next fall.

>>48186504
Yeah, but UA also means it's only slightly more valid than homebrew as far as I'm concerned, and I don't think I'm alone in that.

>>48186829
UA articles aren't playtested and count as homebrew in my circles. It's all beta stuff.

>>48175599
Oh hey, a new 5e book that's actually worth buying. I was starting to think the Sword Coast book was a one time fluke.

>>48175043
I'm more excited for the minis, our group loves having a variety of them, even if they don't 100% match what were doing, its nice to have options for representation.
Bookwise, >>48175599 is the correct answer.

Apparently we get one real sourcebook per year.

>>48188700
I guess that's one way to fight splat bloat?

>>48188700
Christmas gift to DM every year sounds like a plan.

That's a good point, but I was more referring to humanoids in general.

>>48175599
same desu senpai

>>48188588
if only it had one new class option to all classes that would have been justified but come on they left 3 classes completely empty I think

>>48191816
:(
Is this in Volo's or Sword Coast?

>>48183998
Yes, because adding classes that function without having to minmax them to hell and back is making things harder on newer players. Do you even listen to yourself?
