I've gotten back on an Action RPG kick again. I'm playing Titan Quest (with Immortal Throne installed), Silverfall, and Diablo (for that juicy old-school flavor!). I've also been dinking around with TES IV Shivering Isles. I'm liking it so far, but it still feels like more of the same in spots.

I was part of the closed beta and while I enjoyed the game for a while and didn't succumb to many bugs, it didn't fill me with enough wonder and awe to keep playing. It's basically more of the same MMO with LotR skin draped over the top of it. I think it will do well however. My issues with...

I beta-tested DDO and didn't enjoy it. I even checked it out a few months ago and still didn't enjoy it. It didn't really feel like D&D to me. Anyone complaining about Eberron being the setting hasn't played it in the least. Beyond Warforged, there's very little in the game that even makes...

Here's another vote in favor of Psionics. This time around psionics really meshes well with the core rules. While I always enjoyed psionics before, it always felt like a poorly thought-out system for a totally different game tacked onto D&D. Not so this time around.

Much of what I liked has been covered so far. I'm eagerly awaiting this book. From everything I've seen so far it looks like SW Saga Edition may get several rules ported over to other D20 games. The talk of future releases makes me very happy as I thought the line was pretty much dead...

I don' have a group ATM, so I'm primarily a reader. Thanks to Dungeon Bash (and a lot of my own houserules) I can still call myself a gamer every now and then.

Thanks for the links, Grodog. I'm a member of the message boards on the KC Guild site and I'd never heard of or seen the other.

I'm surprised that KCMO was on the list at all. Beyond minis games and Magic it seems like my corner of the metro is a gaming wasteland.

I drink while gaming most of the time.

If it was, then I'd certainly buy it. It'd actually be something I'd likely have time to play!!! :p

Don't hold back, Razz. Tell us how you really feel.

Ditto.

There was little that I liked about the D20 edition of Gamma World. There is a really good D20 Post Apocalyptic game out there though: Darwin's World 2E. It's great. A bit darker in scope and feel, though. I would pick it up and then use setting information from whichever edition of GW you...

They may, but I don't think that it would be so different as to alienate anyone. There are some areas in the rules such as Bardic Music, Turn Undead, and some spell descriptors that are needlessly complex from the viewpoint of new gamers (and some older gamers) that can be cleaned up, easier to...

I don't know about that. Any new edition won't be for us that currently play. It will geared towards pulling MMORPG players into the fold. Sure, story will play a part, and I think the crunch will be lessened, but with the HUGE success of the miniatures line we're likely going to see any new...

I think we're going to see a D&D that's tied more closely to miniatures. It's a smart move on WotC's part as the minis sell in ways that the newest Complete X just won't. I think the system will still be D20, but will be simplified in many areas. In a lot of areas such as spell casting, I...

Eh. Merric, you may be right. However, and I've said this ever since Rasyr started going on and on about 4E, is that unless it's a substantially better product I doubt that I'll be interested. Granted, I don't think that we (as in current players) are the focus of any new edition. Sure, WotC...

I got an email yesterday about this. I didn't realize I stored any CC info on their site. :\ At least the card that it's tied to has been canceled for a few months now.

I really do hope to see it this month (or well, this year), but I'll believe it only when I hold it in my hands at this point.

Good to see you haven't forgotten this thread, RC! :D Thanks, and keep 'em coming!
