Support for all of those systems is listed explicitly in the Kickstarter and the preview PDF.

I love this so very much. Good find!

I assume you know he was a politician as well?

I’ve got the whole family giving it a go this time around.

That's awesome! My 13 year old wrote a few hundred words the first day, but I'm not sure if he's continuing. He started Skyrim recently, so...

I’m finding it difficult to motivate myself to be creative after work… Any tips?

Is there a better time when you feel more creative? I like to write in 15-20 minute sprints 2-3 times a day (although of course some days I do more or less or don't write at all). Maybe after work would be a good time to work on your outline or other meta-writing? Describing scenes or characters, etc. Then perhaps before work you set a 15 minute timer and just chug out what you can based on the outlining work you did the night before?

I always find it easier to be creative when I already have some prep to lean on. Putting on the right music can help, too!

FWIW, I'm not shooting for 50k this year. Just want to write every day, build a better writing habit overall. Last year I felt pretty satisfied doing 35k, and it was fun just to be trying something like this with a community.

Glad to help! I'm somebody who wishes more videos were blog posts so I totally get it. I tend to enjoy Matt Colville's videos, though.

There's a short summary at https://shop.mcdmproductions.com/collections/the-talent-and-psionics/products/the-talent, with a few excerpts from the PDF (in images, unfortunately), but I felt like in this case the video covered it better.

And yeah, I feel like strain could be so much fun to roleplay, compared to spell slots.

Has anybody tried this while it was in beta? I'm super curious about what the powers are, and what the strain dice rolls look like.

Not sure who Raith Roguestar is, but the original source for these monsters (and more! a Pumpkin King boss with lair/legendary actions!) appears to be https://emberdm.tumblr.com/post/188729099266/medievil-pumpkins-dd-5e-monster-stats-for.

Hi! Sorry if this came across as a specific complaint about you. It's a trend I've seen on YouTube that I don't understand, is all. By all means, express yourself however you want! But of course, don't be surprised if old fogies like me don't engage with that style of content.

And thanks for the blog post! I'm a DM trying to find the best way to distribute fun magic items to my party. I have one character who wants to craft a stronger shield but lacks the necessary skills. This could be a good approach to get him the effect he wants without losing the shield he's been spending time and effort on.

You really don’t have to watch the video

I didn't. I'm curious about the content, though.

And I'm genuinely confused about this style of video being so common, but since it is common, I have to assume that it works for some people. I'm glad it works for you.

I don't understand this video style where I have to watch a video with words appearing on the screen and a cartoon character talking. Why is this not a blog post so I can just read it?

Ooo, some nice monster options here! Things like the Kobold Chieftan remind me of things I've been hearing about in MCDM's upcoming Flee Mortals! I checked out the preview at https://mcdm.gg/FleeMortalsPreview and it looks like a lot of fun.
