    Paizo Jessica Price (ex Paizo employee) spills the beans

    I mean... I get the point you are making but... They... they were working on the Death Star... Death. Star. I never found the that scene particularly compelling... To keep the offtopic posts to a minimum: I thought the plotline was fine but neeed one extra element; a spy in the midst...

    Paizo Jessica Price (ex Paizo employee) spills the beans

    I feel bad now that I bought the core rulebooks recently. I know Crystal and Price have not called for boycotts and they can be counter-productive but it's the only action I feel I can reasonably take.

    Pathfinder 2E Pathfinder 2e: is it RAW or RAI to always take 10 minutes and heal between encounters?

    I've seen a lot of references to the game being designed around HP being only, say, a resource in fights, not between fights; i.e., that the players should spend some time and resources (like healing potions, healing spells etc.) between encounters where they take damage that reduces them below...

    D&D General That one player who cancels at the last day

    The more I read more stories the more I am lucky that I have a 9 to 6 software engineering job and don't have to deal with that. I hope they compensate you well - pretty clear they couldn't run the shop without you.

    D&D General D&D Survivor - Dungeon Masters: Matt Mercer Wins!

    There is something extremely fitting that we have someone who literally has Witch in her name as one of the final two. And uh... A... Mercer too...

    D&D General The "Jack Of All Trades" is a cursed archetype in tabletop RPGs

    It should also be noted that a Jack of All Trades is significantly more useful the less members of a party there is (though they can still be useful in larger groups depending on play-style). That's where they shine really; if you have less than 4 players, having someone who can double up on a...

    D&D 5E Bards Should Be Half-Casters in 5.5e/6e

    I want to address this part, which I know is only a small apart of the OP, but I think it's an important thing to address. Part of this issue is caused by Wizards changing Warlocks from being an Intelligence caster in D&D Next to being a Charisma caster in the PHB. It simply doesn't align with...

    D&D General Critical Role: Overrated, Underrated, or Goldilocks?

    Watching Critical Role has been quite useful to me in one way - rewatching (Campaign 1 Spoilers) has made me recognise how I made many critical mistakes when I had a character die and then had to introduce my new one, related to my previous character. It just triggered that self-reflection in...

    D&D General Critical Role: Overrated, Underrated, or Goldilocks?

    I have found from my experience that whether an audience affects you and your performance varies wildly from person to person, especially if the audience is in person or not. I do not have as impressive experience as either Oofta or Charlaquin in terms of speaking to an audience or on stage...

    D&D General Live-Action D&D Shows/Podcasts: Love Them or Hate Them?

    I must admit the best Critical Role content I watched was the Doom Eternal oneshot. The guests especially where fantastic.

    D&D General Live-Action D&D Shows/Podcasts: Love Them or Hate Them?

    Genuinely unsure. You would think after watching half-way through Critical Role Campaign 2 and other Critical Role campaign stuff, and a smattering of other sessions and such, but I admit I drift in and out of focus, and am terrified of being contaminated in a negative way by watching them. I...

    D&D General I know it's not Christmas yet, but this D&D advent calendar...

    I thought the link was broken... nope, the link actually has an emoji in it. End times. Seems pretty cool as a gift though.
