Awesome to see today's poll go up today, and understanding the agreements LW have in place with Paizo it's absolutely understandable that there is a Pathfinder focus.

But given data coming from places like 'The ORR Group Industry Report' shows D&D 5e market share is increasing quarter on quarter I feel like we should start our own thread to show what we would be interested in buying.

I think it's safe to assume that there will not be an official license with WOTC until such time that they can see a workable product that will have proven security measures in place to protect their content and LW can provide evidence of a consumer base. (Note: This is just my opinion, i hope I'm incredibly wrong!)

With that in mind I'll just state that all of the official content would be absolutely amazing. I would buy it from RW over any real copies of the book any day.

Outside of that though, if we assume the official content will not be available, what else out there would you be interested in purchasing? Keeping in mind that they will likely be restricted to supporting content based on the OGL. Content specific to the DMsGuild.com would likely not be eligible in alot of cases as there is a separate license associated with selling content on that website.

My list from 3PP would include the following:

My priority for content would be:
  • Monsters and NPCs
  • Fleshed Out Campaign Settings
  • Adventures
  • Rules (Note: Priority of this would increase significantly with a Web View for the players)
  • Player Guides (Classes, etc) (Note: Priority of this would increase significantly with a Web View for the players)

Thanks for starting this thread So my priorities for content would be as follows:
  • Core Rulebooks (PHB, DMG, MM)
  • Campaign Settings
  • Modules/Adventures
  • Adventure & Player Supplements
Keep in mind I'm fairly new to DM'ing so being able to quickly reference a rule without having to open yet another program/pdf/window/etc during prep and play would be a God-send. I'd rather have the full versions of the books, though I'll begrudgingly take the stripped down OGL content and fill in the blanks manually.

As for 3PP, there's a lot of good stuff out there from many different vendors, so I guess it would ultimately depend on what is decided on between WotC and WL. If DMsGuild.com is part of the offerings though that would make me a happy lil DM

As already mentioned somewhere in another thread I'd definitely buy Ravenloft. In 5e the version is named "Curse of Strahd" or something like that.

So far I don't manage rules in RW, and I have no idea what that could make sense for. I use RW solely as a storytelling tool, heavily using structures like plots for the story flow, topics for consistency of my gaming world, and player view to show maps and pictures. I usually create my own monsters as well as NPCs, so no use for them either.

But I will have a close look what the content market is going to offer. Maybe I find something I can include into my campaign, I don't know yet. Any chance there will be german language content? Probably not.

I would be very interested in spells, mobs, and anything recyclable to put into a sandbox.

I would be moderately interested in core rules, supplement rules, unearthed arcana and errata.

I would not be interested in the official modules, adventure paths or the Forgotten Realms setting.

Well about anything really but if I was to order things:

Settings: A big map, with a lot of pins, that points to smaller regional maps, a complete history, npcs, the works... As for which settings I would love to see those first
* Ravenloft
* Planescape or equivalent
* Forgotten realms stuff
* Dragonlance
* Mystara

After that, all rule books including bestiaries

And then adventures.

Note I would not limits things to 5e, but put everything from older editions as well, especially all the informations from settings not already covered by 5e...
