Daggerheart is apparently a 2d12 system (comicbook.com)

just came across this comic book article about daggerheart at gen con. I find it interesting that daggerheart is moving away from d20s.

Looks interesting but a bit finicky. The 3-page character sheet looks somewhat cumbersome, but it could be okay if all the rules and actions/ability a player can take are on it so that they don't need to reference anything else.

off hand, my main reservation is how you have to keep track of each d12 as a "hope" die or a "fear" die. I feel like that will be a tad annoying to track/remember, but we'll see. Since it applies to every roll maybe not.

I think that should be okay. People have fun with Genesys and other die systems with special colored dice. Only having two dice types should be okay, and in a VTT the hope v. fear check would be automated anyways.

I assume it's also that big to accommodate the space for placing the cards on the sheet. But I expect it would be technically possible to have a smaller version if the cards were to be kept separately.
