I have played the hell out of Yawning Portal. A pure gem in my - and my player's eyes! Also if I needed something quick on hand Kobold Press' Lairs books are amazing.

That’s how it’s always been pretty much since 3e. Also how PF does it in their APs: Xxxx Monster (Pathfinder Bestiary 2 page 192) for example. I think Paizo used to have a rule that AP authors should only use monsters from two bestiaries so they aren’t spread over like six bestiaries. Also as...

I will have to say that while Pathfinder 1 streamlined many things (skills, grapple, reigned in some polymorph/summon spells, etc.), they made the class design a bit more complex IMO. Many classes are full or stuff you need to track, and does feel a bit fiddly. Now that can be both a pro and con...

Yeah, I do check their site out from time to time since I'm curious. But they also don't have stuff on Roll20 or Foundry AFAIK.

Ok - that I did not know. Interesting....thanks. Wouls also explain the lack of GURPS news.

Yeah I'm also baffled that they don't highlight any GRUPS or Dungeon Fantasy releases in all of '24. That's weird. It's as if they don't make TTRPGs any more.

Ha ha - been there. I tried CoC once with my D&D group. I still remember trying to describe a lighthouse in the most eerily way, and suddenly we could hear one of the players snoring. He simply fell asleep! Now I think it was stacked against us. Firstly we played on Roll20 and if I am ever to...

Yeah can only imagine Roll For Combat’s stream if WotC did something like this.

Also, didn't the internet play a part? For the first few years, you couldn't just Google 'druid power build' and get a recipe for making your DM cry. You had to build from what you had in your books. Modern games have to take that into account. That's what I like about PF2. They tried to lift...

Just look at this. The difference is stark. It's like a NY Times front page next to NY Post.

I just can't take these shocked YouTube faces any longer. It has almost become a meme at this point.

Wow. Just wow. So what you’re saying is that the layoffs are more about looking proactive than something actually needed for the financial health of Hasbro? That sucks.

This...I didn't see coming. Especially since WotC seemed to be doing fine. Also I don't really get the "boycott"-mindset. There is nothing strange or weird about companies downsizing. Wishing for more ill to befell those left seems.....weird to say the least. What I'm thinking is that I wish...

Why would they release the SRD before the books? Has that ever happened? Can’t imagine why WotC would do that. And the argument hinges on that.
