I loved running 13a but some of my players didn't enjoy it. I think it was too combat focused for them.

For direct D&D competition we will soon have:

13th Age 2nd
Pathfinder 2nd
DaggerHeart
Tales of the Valiant
ShadowDark
Draw Steel
DC20
DragonBane

And hat's not even considering OSR/NSR games. Crowded market.

Yeah I agree that damage looks like Work.

People are also going to get really tired of every roll generating either hope it fear. It's just so much processing.

I also thought that their "simplification" of money which kind of recreated old money was particularly baffling.

I really liked Alien 1e, I didn't like the sound of the changes, but honestly I think I am unlikely to go back to Alien now that I've got MotherShip.

Wow. Sorry. I totally crit failed. I was trying to talk about DaggerHeart but I wrote DragonBane instead.

The funny thing is, nothing I wrote in that post doesn't also hold true for DragonBane too, but I actually quite like that one.
