I live about 40 miles away from Indianapolis so I am very familiar with Gen Con. I have attended the convention many times since it moved from Milwaukee and even went a few times before it moved. It already has almost 1 million square feet of space and 4700 connected hotel rooms. I don't...

The Indianapolis Business Journal and several of the local stations are reporting that Gen Con is extending their contract with the city of Indianapolis through 2030. Gen Con was probably encouraged by the new 800-room hotel and 143,500 square foot expansion to the Indiana Convention Center...

I am a little bit slow on the reply, but I want to reiterate that spell points would only be given for the level 1-5 slots. This makes the point total 64 points at level 10. You don't end up with the crazy 133 points in the DMG. You might bump the total to 71 at 18th level because full...

Anyone that can't see how having spell points over a convoluted table in a game that has half casters, one-third casters, pact casters, and multiclassing in it...I'm not sure if you are looking at the whole picture. Also, spell tables encourage upcasting. Out of first level slots but want to...

I think Kobold Press has been placed in a difficult position by the adjustments Wizards has made in their design goals regarding the '24 D&D books. Six months ago it appeared Wizards was making significant changes to 5e by adjusting, removing, or adding quite a few rules. Kobold Press...

D&D needs to adopt a spell point system for level 1-5 spells and make level 6-9 spells class abilities that only gives access to one spell slot of each level. A caster should get one level 6 spell slot at level 12, one level 7 at level 14, one level 8 at level 16, and one level 9 at level 18.

That's definitely what I will end up doing. I enjoy the KP monster products. I just want to see ToV not only be a successful KS but also a beloved system in the hobby for years to come.

It was wonderful to see a company reward it's backers this way. The problem is that it only left a 4 page public playtest packet for the players who are evaluating your entire process before purchasing the product in April next year. There has been no buzz created from what should be probably...

I will be as transparent as possible here and I will not use any inductive reasoning. I bought some Pathfinder 2E items but have not played them yet because I am finishing a campaign in D&D. I thought what Wizards did with the OGL was despicable and I hope the Pinkerton agents get the book...

So you believe people inferred that the reprints would be a Remastered edition that had not been announced yet? Did you even think that or did you not notice the announcement at that time? I think you may be confused about who has the extreme position.

My post about whether Paizo should release new books was actually on the Paizo forums, not EN World. The title of the post is "Pathfinder Next Edition Thoughts." Several posters responded they did not want new books. I was critical of Wizards when they attempted to deauthorize the OGL, but my...

It's called a lie by omission. People get called on it all the time. I discussed Paizo releasing new books to help new players about a month ago and was laughed at because no one believed Paizo would print new books 4 years after release and no one wanted them. When this statement was made on...

"Of course, Paizo plans to continue publishing Pathfinder and Starfinder, even as we move away from the Open Gaming License. Since months’ worth of products are still at the printer, you’ll see the familiar OGL 1.0(a) in the back of our products for a while yet. While the Open RPG Creative...

Would love to know if you believe this Remaster will thoroughly decouple PF and D&D legally considering it's being done with rather impressive speed or if it's more likely they will still miss some OGL items not in CC. As a very experienced publisher, you would probably know more of what that...

Well, now I'm confused because Paizo has specifically stated they need to remove certain magic items and monsters, and that necessitated the new printing. You're right though. The SRD is under CC. I was mistaken in my earlier post. I'm not a Pathfinder player, but I'm not sure a light...

The latest spin from Paizo that the short-lived lifespan of their Core Rulebook is all Wizards' fault is especially stretching the truth. Many of their players have expressed all the issues that have needed errata and the company themselves have admitted a huge 640 page rulebook wasn't a good...

I watched a stream the other day with Erik Mona as the guest discussing the announcement of PF 2E Remastered. Wizards' involvement with the Pinkertons and the failure of 4e were both brought up during the first 30 minutes of a two-and-a-half hour stream. I understand that Wizards should not...

I simply believe that Paizo did not release the information about their update of their rules in a timely manner. The community should hold them accountable for this. That's it. Am I asking too much? I'm not releasing any new rulebooks so I don't think it applies to me.

I'm sorry. They have been totally transparent. They have assured all their new players that this was not a bait-and-switch. They have done those things, right? When you decide you are going to update rulebooks the ethical decision is to let possible buyers know that day. Not a week later...

The fact you had to write that much to explain the meaning of that statement confirms why it is misleading. Do you think I may not be the only one who got a bit lost?
