Default Re: Four Perilous Journeys: Four new adventures for The Fantasy Trip

Wow. That's a huge leap in one update. Behold the power of thresholds.

The physical pieces (tokens, megahexes, etc) add a lot of value in my mind. I like books for their own sake as much as many, but the product in adventures (or core rules) is information. Getting that cheaper is good; getting it more accessible, as with searchable PDFs, is also good. But if you're playing FTF, then the game pieces have to have physicality, and so they're a reason to buy a physical product.

(Which I suppose raises a question: does anyone release digital product like the image files for the tokens, so that you can convert them to VTT tokens and the like? Some PDFs you can take apart to get the image files of NPCs and so on -- or often just screenshot them -- but it seems there's a little corner open there.)
