What Next?!?!

I am running a LARP game in the Southern Oregon Region. It focus a lot on being a New WOD setting. For record keeping sakes, it would be nice to have all of the core books for each of the races be available.
I would agree with the earlier post, that Hero Lab would probly sell more copies if there was a wide veriety of systems available for WOD users.
I would also agree with the relseases follow White-Wolf's releases; WtF, MtA, PtC, Second Sight, CtL, etc.

Hope that helps!!
 
I am in favor of the core books first because the supplements can be added later. I like the idea of all the core rules set with additions being added by Rob or by the user. Just my two cents.
 
Well cores are comming out, but Changeling is the next, most likely due to the fact it is selling like hotcakes.
 
I'm a HUGE fan of the idea of adding all the current material out right now (such as found in the Covenant Books, and the Clan Books) The Armory book would be nice too. THEN adding other games.

i'd go in this order personally:

1. Finish source books up to date for Requiem
2. Add Mage
3. Add Mage sourcebooks
4. Add Changling
5. Add Changling Sourcebooks
7. Anything else.

The theory is that mage is the BIGGEST game sold/popularity wise second only to Requiem, then Changling would be taking over that next slot if not shooting past Mage.

Also, while you finish one thing, adding new stuff from whatever came before it in the meantime would be nice too. So when Mage gets done and comes out to us, you add a pack for Requiem stuff that was released in the months between (like the last clanbooks or whatever). then the mage pack, then another pack for Vamp, then Changling, then a pack for each, then a pack for Changling, then a pack for all, then the next game, ect...

That way you're not sitting there at a screen all day long every day trying to play catch up on something you've already thought finished just because another book or 2 came out while you were finishing putting Mage together. You'll never catch up that way. So if I were you guys, I'd do sourcebooks so that one system is complete to date, then the next system, patch the previous and put out catchup on the one you just finished. Patches for new material can come in between other projects, or even bundled up with the Mage release for instance.
 
Changeling seems to be more popular at times then Mage, at least in sales it definatly is, and it's up in the air whether it's being played more, but right now it's the hot thing, so I think that's why CtL is comming up next. And I'll say it again, when CtL comes out, that's when I buy Hero-Labs :D
 
I would say that from a business perspective, it'd be a good idea for you to create all of the different game lines first. That would reach a much wider audience. Also, when would you decide to stop producing supplemental material in favour of a new game line - considering that White Wolf are continuously releasing Vampire supplements, it'd be a never ending job!
 
I think mage and forsaken should be next, followed by changeling (promethian is nice, but it's a standalone game, really, and I know very few that play it regularly). if I had to vote, I'd say forsaken first (it came out first, is easier and I'd buy it first) but mage is a close second.
 
I wonder if anyone Actually reads the other threads. FYI by white-wolf and wolflair agreement... Changeling, Forsaken, Mage (I believe, I'm actually to lazy to look up the order)
 
Most gaming groups I have played with over the years usually play with:
1. Vampire
2. Werewolf
3. misc WW games

Personally I'd like to see more Vampire add ons , Werewolf core rules , and lastly Mage core rules.
2.0 Makes mixing games much easier than 1.0.
 
I know LW is currently busy with other projects, but any idea when more World of Darkness work will be done? Right now the only things I'm playing are Changeling and Mage with the Camarilla.
 
I'd like to see:

1) Core Books
2) Hunter the Vigil
3) Whatever you decide after that...

Basically because I'm running a H:tV game! :)
 
Core books please! As others said, If I'm missing a merit or skill, I can add that in a lot easier than a whole new template.

Specifically, I'd look for:

1. Werewolf the Foresaken
2. Mage the Awakening
3. Scion
4. Hunter.
5. Changeling/Promethean
6. Supplements
 
I think that like many people posting on this thread, I would like to see core books covered before supplements. Whilst I have many of the supplements, the amount of use I get out of the additional mechanics is limited, compared to the main rules. With a little effort, it seems possible that some of the additional mechanics from the source books could be cobbled together using the editor if it became a necessity.

Personally, (and this is purely my preference based on what have been running), I would like to see

1) Hunter
2) Mage
3) Scion
4) Changeling

I don't really run much Werewolf, Promethean or Exalted at the moment, so none of those are a major priority for me.
