What are you looking forwards to the most?

Hello, everyone! Today I thought it would be fun to talk about the future. As you all know, I'm always working on a million different things, and while I can't promise everything on this list will actually be released this year (I'm way too optimistic and there are always bottlenecks, be they the illustrators I work with, or my own desire to get things done). With that said, all of these are in varying degrees of completion, so I they should be done sooner or later. So let's see!

• The full Gravebound Edition revamp for Ker Nethalas: This is almost done, with only the Quickstart and the Warren of the Ratkin books left to be fixed. This is currently my focus, so it's just a matter of time.

• New Ker Nethalas content: As you guys know I have the Book of Horrors (the bestiary) in the works, as well as a book focused on adding more exploration tables and content. Then there's the fabled Ker Nethalas: Dominion, and Ker Nethalas: The Hollow Realm, the two large expansions that I've been talking about since the game was released.

• Frosbound Exiles: This one is about 40% written, but I do want to implement the Gravebound Edition changes to it, not so much to make it compatible with KN, but to bring it up to current standards. I honesty don't know when I'll get back to this, it's a really ambitious project.

• Sacrifice 2e: This one is annoying, because as you guys know I started working on it as a D20 ruleset. But it's actually a really good D20 ruleset, completely skill-focused and with lots of original ideas I've never seen before. But that's usually bad news because the OSR boys will come out of the woodwork to tell me this is not how a D20 game should look like, so at this point I've given up on D20 games and my plan was to adapt it to my Momentum Engine. It's a lot of work, though, so I'm honestly lazy to dismantle a pretty cool system, since I don't know how I will convert those cool, unique ideas to the Momentum Engine. We'll see...

• More Riftbreakers 2e content: The Arenminst Forest book is currently in the works, and it will hopefully be the first in a series of booklets covering the different regions. I also have the Guild & Raids book planned, and the one dedicated to the Labyrinth.

• Empire Undying: Lately I've been again working a bit on this on my spare time, and honestly, I just really love this game. I think it's my magnum opus, when it comes to settings. You know when you write something, forget about it, and return to it years later, only to find out that it's actually pretty good? I know it sounds arrogant or egocentric but I was reading through stuff I wrote 5 years ago and thinking all the time "damn, this is good". I almost think I was a better writer back then, haha. Maybe it was because I wasn't trying to be as productive as now and just taking my time. In any case, this is a really fleshed out setting, and the mechanics are pretty great too, so I'm excited to show what I have. I am in the process of adapting it to the Momentum Engine, so it's taking a while, but I think it's going to turn out great. You'll have something to see next week!

• Into the Warp & Ruin: My extraction shooter game, with lots of really original and fresh ideas. This one's being a tough nut to crack, but I'm slowly getting there. I think it's going to be super fun, at least for those who enjoy that sort of roguelike experience.

• Across a Thousand Hollow Vaults: The book I'll never finish... It's been almost done for 2 years now. But this year must be the year I release it, one way or another. My main issue is that I honestly don't know how to release it. Logic dictates that I release it in the same format as the first book, but things have changed since then, a lot. And I honestly don't want to get into a crowdfunding campaign of that size again, it was horrible. But I also don't want to just release this as a PoD... So I don't know. We'll see!
