Can’t wait for this! Hoping for a physical edition - nothing online yet as far as preorders go. Something just feels right about having a physical copy of an RPG.
It's 2019... physical is unnecessary.
@modular some of us really enjoy physical games. for me, i think i like having a collection i can look at/display and i enjoy the box art. plus a physical game can be shared with my kids.
@modular Digital distribution and people like you ruined the videogame industry, thank you.
@spectraleggings it's 2019, not 1989. Have you ever heard of Darwin?
