Dungeons & Dragons Adventurer #52 (Hatchette Partworks, September 2024) | Modern Magazine

[@RIVERSRPGChannel]

I’ve used those ideas in the beginning on adventures in my games.

I'm liking that the magazine, while often showing me things I already know, is being informative for new GM's.

I liked this one. Now, I can only talk by what I saw in the video as I didn't read the magazine, but going deeper into a subject is exactly what I wanted from them. Problem is that the magazine is too light. But I guess that's fine if you consider that it's a weekly magazine. Or, rather, more of a fascicle, as they're meant to go together. And yeah, the maps in this issue render the previous issue's totally unecessary. And they really needed them to come with this one issue because it's what's in the adventure. It's like they had to pack _something_ but didn't have _anything._ Perhaps they could've packed the d4 with issue 51...

I think the perfect balance would be to have 4 sections on one subject, so we get a deeper dive on that particular thing, and then the remaining 4 being all different topics, to give some variety. But they either give us 8 articles on different things which can be interesting but only a surface level look at anything, or only covering a couple of topics in more detail, which just reveals how thin the magazine is. I've been told the maps were a replacement as they surveyed the readership and they complained about too many dice. But that just makes the situation worse, as the maps are almost completely useless.

@@RPGGamer think it’s kinda aimed at subscribers as we get 4 issues delivered a month.

No more dice please... I invite you to write to Hachette to let them know that we don't want any more dice, we have too many! 😅

[@RPGGamer]

I've been told there was a survey, and readers indicated there were too many dice, so they started handing out the A3 maps, which are printed at a scale to make them useless, which is not an improvement.

@@RPGGamer yeah changed from 47 so will see, the maps could be bigger agree with that, notebook was one of the most requested things hence got that.
