Shoving everything into 5e just because it's popular is frankly stupid. Dungeons and Dragons is a system about dungeon crawling. It was designed that way and always has. It's system of race, class, loot, leveling, all of it is designed for a particular kind of game. You can run a story game with...

I've been really dissapointed with 5e dnd, not just because it killed my game of choice, 4e, but because it was poorly designed and lacking customization and real investment for martial characters. What I've seen of Level-Up has me actually considering running it. Maybe I can meld level up...

I don't know if I'll be interested. Zeitgeist as I have it in my hands is a bit of a product of the time. Given you're working on the sequel I'm not certain it's going content-wise something I would want to invest in. Plus it won't be for 4th ed which is my wheelhouse.

I would like to state that I initially commented on how intersting I found it that we came to very different conclusions and I was considering making a point of how reading a 'guide' or 'review' before the text to prepare yourself can color your perception. However you asked for more info and I...

I feel I rebutted the 'flip the genders and think about it you sexist' in my previous post so I won't go further into that. Your arguments up to the gender dynamics I can see your point of view and can entertain that there is definitely some logical issues with that whole thing as presented...

An over reliance on sensitivity limits storytelling and closes off avenues of narrative exploration for the sake of sensibilities of individuals many of whom have no connection to the potential offended party and are getting offended on behalf of them. All that aside I'm not looking at this in...

Alright I've got a bit of time now so I'll touch base on my disagreements and how I saw things. Namely the big disagreements are in Elfaivar gender dynamics and all that comes form that and from the little side bit with the edgy blacksmith. I would like to first off state that I feel the...

I think less about facts and more about personal opinion and interpretations of Elfaivar and the setting. I find you to be generally unfair to the writers of Zeitgeist and your biases are in full view. Perhaps I'll take some time after work to offer more detail but for the moment I feel the...

Wow. Don't think I've ever more strongly disagreed with your take on a book before. Wonder if it's because I actually started running it before I read your zeitviece and thus made up my own mind first. Hmmm. Very interesting.

Yeah I'm on Diaspora and it's... interesting.

Ahh sorry. Reign of Winter, a pathfinder adventure path. On this very website a fellow has converted the first three adventures. https://www.enworld.org/threads/pathfinder-reign-of-winter-4th-edition-conversion.335443/

Running reign of winter in 4th edition myself.

Luc and Lya are brother and sister. Nathan Jierre is the cousin. However Lya is a politician so is still the heir, whereas Luc went into science and is about as charismatic as a wet fart in church.

Could really use a link myself, thanks.
