An Objective Draw Steel Vs. Daggerheart Review
As I write this at the tail of end of August 2025, we're kind of in the last gasps of all those projects that came about when Wizards of the Coast decided to mess with the OGL waaaaaaaay back in January of 2023. Pathfinder has been remastered, the ORC license came out, Kobold Press farted out Tales of the Valiant and everyone forgot it, etc. Most relevantly, MCDM's Draw Steel and Darrington Press' Daggerheart have both been released. The only one left is like...DC20? So, with both in my grubby little hands (thanks to getting a primo copy of Daggerheart at my local Books-a-Million), the only thing left to do is decide which is the objectively better game. Now some might say my decision to run a Daggerheart campaign kind of gives the game away a little bit, to which I say do not worry. I am being fair and impartial. After all, as we all know, art is an entirely objective thing which can be quantified. With that said, let's jump right into it!
