The State of the Chronicles of Darkness

Update on the Mage Orders, as well as two neat little merits. While "Fast Spells" may be a bit powerful, anything that makes the game focus more on lightningbolts than bullets is cool.
-
A part of me is kinda torn. A butterfly internet fairy would be cool as all hell, but I'd get written off so, so fast. People have ruined special concepts.
-
Oh my lord:
- Portray the Pentacle as an Alliance
- Show the Orders as mystery cults
Hello Mage. Nice to meet you again.
What, did someone forget to post when the Wizened alpha write-up came out? Hello again, Nockers! I have missed you too.

I've been slacking as hell (and also not a huge Mage buff)

@Arkandel
So they're abandoning the metaplot-agnostic V20. Meh. -
As long as they abandon the absolute derp-track they've been on in the supplements they've been putting out for it too, let's do this thing.
-
What this speaks of, more or less, is that there's meddling on the executive level.
CCP didn't want to fully commit to NWoD 2nd edition until they saw that buyers were receptive. So they published products that were emphatically NOT a new edition (wink wink) and when the reception was positive, green light.
The responses to the new LARP book and the metaplot advancement in it were positive, so new edition folding them in? Sure shootin'.
I kind of feel bad for the Onyx Path writers. CCP is an insanely libertardian company and by all accounts it'd be absolute shit to have them for bosses.

@The-Tree-of-Woe
Makes sense. I'm not a great fan of some of the new LARP metaplot (Cam believes and preaches Antediluvians are beneficient and loving fathers/mothers?), but others have great potential (the Independent Alliance of the Giovanni and Setites). I would bet that V4 doesn't end up using the exact same thing though. -
Updated the Opening Post with information from Gencon 2015 and new releases.
-
You forgot the mage supplements, Signs of Sorcery and Guide to the Pentacle, or whatever the last one is called. It's a clabbook style investigation book about how the Pentacle was formed, how it interacts, etc.

Thanks @Derp. I am not the poster MSB deserves

@tragedyjones when are Changeling and Mage supposed to come out?

Mage was originally slated for... well, now, I think. Changeling, who knows?
