>>98225345Oh, the irony.
>>98225345Frankly this is one of the rare few cases where converting to D&D ruleset makes objective improvement.Too bad they didn't time it to release alongside with Bloodlines 2 when at least someone might have actually cared.
>>98225770is it?
I expect quality will be shit. I will use it to power scale every WoD creature by proxy.
>>98225345The worst edition of dnd with the worst edition of vtm. lmao
>>98226635WW built their entire identity on being "not d&d" down to the very bones of everything they did. So them teaming up (albeit this isn't the same WW and it's wotc not TSR) is pretty fuckin' funny.
>>98226693To be fair, Monte Cook's World of Darkness was also a thing in the 3.5 era, although not especially popular.
>>98225345But why?
>>98226681Ghostfire seems to be the writer. Have they done anything good?
>>98226720its easy to make a vampire class following the ruleset of 5,5e, slap it on dndbeyond, and make moneyits good for wotc because they get free content that they get a percentage off of, and its good for vtm as they get money, and advertising through dndbeyond
>>98225345we're so back!
>>98226830those Ravenloft gazeteers were pretty great....
>>98226693It's a 3pp. White Wolf and WotC aren't "teaming up," a fanboy (or group of fanboys) is making a thing.
>>98227014WW did have to allow the license to be used by Ghostfire for this occurrence to happen though
>>98226742>its good for vtm as they get money, and advertising through dndbeyondI find it funny the way paradox have put it on their website>Our Vampires are coming to D&D BeyondSo they're clearly exited about the advertising potential.
>>98226742As long as it's not total ass like the 4e Vampire was I'm fine with this.
>>98226738they mostly specialize in 5e settings, grim hollow and dungeons of drakheim being their most popular
>>98228763Those being knock-offs of WFRP and Mordheim, respectively?
>>98225345>VTM but 5.5Why play that when you can play VTM but OSR?https://www.drivethrurpg.com/en/product/521203/shadowcity-blood-and-neon
>>98228852drakkenheim and grm hollow seem like different flavors of "what if the fantasy world was full of malignant bullshit and suffering?" which is fair enough but odd to do twice. seems dungeons of drakkenheim specifically is the daggerheart version
