D&D is coming to Magic the Gathering, but there’s already a lot of Magic the Gathering content for D&D
So if you missed it last September, there's an upcoming Magic the Gathering set called Adventures in the Forgotten Realms, which will for the first time bring various D&D characters and concepts into the famous TCG.
How would you feel if Blizzard revisited Titan?
The story of Titan is one that's probably pretty familiar to almost everyone in game development -- years of work on a game that ultimately didn't ship.
Amazon Prime’s Invincible, based on Robert Kirkman’s comic, is visceral storytelling — sometimes literally
I've long believed that you can recognize when a story is well told -- when it has elements of real quality, when it is crafted in an effective and even powerful way -- and not necessarily like that story.
How would you feel about a Hearthstone-based WoW expansion?

The Queue: A lot can happen in a day
So just yesterday a murderer was convicted thanks to a herculean effort by a lot of people to overcome systemic racism, Jeff Kaplan left Blizzard, Jim Steinman died, and a whole lot more besides. It was a big day. On a personal front, I went to the doctor and found out I’m doing better health wise than I thought, which was nice, although I’m still a weird mutant who produces way too much iron. Sadly, it’s enough iron to make me sick, but not enough to grow steel hard skin or anything like that.
Anyway, let’s chat about Blizzard and games and stuff.
Chris Metzen’s Auroboros D&D setting raised nearly a half million dollars on day one of its Kickstarter
Kickstarter has become one of the biggest ways to promote self-pub or small publisher TTRPG projects, and the latest project from Chris Metzen's Warchief Gaming has proved the power of an established creator with a fanbase, because Auroboros: Coils of the Serpent has been out for almost a day and it's made almost $550k US as of this writing -- solidly eleven times its funding goal of $50,000.
