52 Fates

52 Fates: What’s in its future?

So now that 52 Fates is published and in official print, this means we’re done, right?

Nope!

There are already many things that will be into the next edition of 52 Fates, and the expectation is to have these published, at the latest, at the beginning of fall 2020. However, it will be through gradual updates, so you would be getting the game updated as each piece is added in. So you might be wondering, what’s in the pipeline? Here’s a quick overview:

  • Re-edited: The whole book will undergo a detailed revision for clarification, better syntax, and overall make it more readable.
  • Rule clarifications in regard to some aspects like riposte reactions and outstanding abilities.
  • Additional backgrounds.
  • The character creation process, although being simple, will be made more clear by describing it in a step-by-step mode.
  • Review most spells, with minor tweaks, and reformulation (or probably replacements) for the control and release spells from the Star of Deceit , as many players don’t find that type of spells appropriate (and I agree, in hindsight).
  • Expanded bestiary: there’s around a dozen more creatures that will be added.
  • A base adventure setting: There will be a detailed city for players to start their adventures, complete with maps, NPCs, local and country lore, and a simple new adventure to get your feet wet immediately!
  • More lore related to the Arcane Crosses!

As you can see, there’s a ton of work that will be done. Will all the downloads 52 Fates has (more than 4,000 on itch.io alone), the time has come to put more detail, refinement, and up the quality of the game so that people truly get their money’s worth, and above everything, they have fun and live wonderful adventures.

Stay tuned!
