#RPGaDay2019: Share
I already talked about sharing on the previous RPGaDay post, specifically sharing ideas, but to reiterate: sharing ideas is a good way to get feedback and possibly build on them, which I believe can help you improve so long as you're willing to listen.
This isn't to say all feedback is useful, and that you should always incorporate it. It's a mixed bag, of course, but I've encountered many people that refuse to budge on most if not everything they're working on, even if they've explicitly asked for feedback, which I used to find very strange.
Something numerous people have told Melissa and myself is that they're surprised at how open we are to criticism, but given what I've seen I'm less surprised, more...disappointed. I think being open to criticism should be the norm because, again, it can help in a variety of ways (such as avoiding becoming egotistical).
I'm also going to share Jim's video on the topic, as I agree with pretty much everything he says (and it fits the theme): if you like something, share it with others you think might also enjoy it!
The first issue of The Delver, a magazine featuring fungal-themed content for both players and GMs (including an adventure in which myconids find religion), is available!
Our latest Dungeon World class, The Ranger, is now available.
Dwarven Vault is our sixth 10+ Treasures volume. If you're interested in thirty dwarven magic items (including an eye that lets you shoot lasers) and nearly a dozen new bits of dungeon gear, check it out!
By fan demand, we've mashed all of our 10+ Treasure volumes into one big magic item book, making it cheaper and more convenient to buy in print (which you can now do).
