Or, for those of us who have embraced high tech gaming, when you prefer a virtual map and display rather than doing things the old-fashioned way.
Many of us have grown used to these strange ways, though. |
Mythic Table is open source, it's got some experienced professionals on the design team, and it's been growing behind the scenes. If you haven't checked it out yet, you definitely should... especially now, since they're going to start blowing up in the very near future!
Let's Kick This Party Off!
So, if Mythic Table is already out there, and already free to use, what do you get from the Mythic Table Kickstarter? Isn't this kind of campaign usually something companies do to build up finances in order to make a product in the first place?
Well, yes. But in this case we've all had a taste of what Mythic Table is capable of... now the question is what would it be capable of if we really put some gas in the tank?
Fill 'er up! |
First and foremost, the Kickstarter will help Mythic Table expand the assets it already boasts, giving players and GMs alike all kinds of shiny new toys to play with! Improvements on lighting options and dice styles, doors and windows, map creation, GM control... if you can think of it, chances are the designers want to rev it up. And that is, at least in part, where support is going.
It's far from the only thing the Kickstarter will be backing, though.
In addition to tweaking all the toys, there's also plans to work on content integration (specifically with World Anvil to start, though I doubt that's where things will end), allowing GMs to import maps and campaigns, as well as binding accounts. There's even talk about creating a digital marketplace where maps for Mythic Table can be bought and sold, giving players and GMs alike access to unique items that are designed to run smoothly on this platform.
That's a lot... but if action economy has taught us anything it's that when you have enough people all working together, it's amazing the things you can accomplish!
Speaking of New Releases...
While we're on the subject of fun new things you should keep an eye on, the second supplement for my own fantasy RPG setting just dropped a little bit ago! Moüd: The City of Bones is available for both Pathfinder Classic as well as Dungeons and Dragons 5th Edition, and you can either fold it into your existing RPG setting, or use it as part of the ever-growing amount of stuff available for Sundara: Dawn of a New Age.
I'll go more in-depth on what makes this new location special and unique later, just wanted to take a second to mention it!
