Nice and legible, easy to read and no graphics that make your inner 5 year old think that you could do better than that. :) It's a professional looking RPG, and doesn't look like it's a thematic sequel to Arthas Soulgazer's "50 Shades of Vorpal"... EDIT: Is the identity of Arthas Soulgazer...

"People who worship heroes must be prepared for disillusionment." I'm going to sound grognardy here, but this is what happens when your hobby becomes popular. Attention whores (not directly referring to anyone specific with that word) become celebrities, and they act like it. No matter what...

So your interests must lead to a lot of 5E playing then. A good majority are 5E projects. A vast wasteland of KS projects after projects for one system. Like all 5E Kickstarters should be. Their own list, so products for other systems can have their moment in the sun, rather than a...

Because they have to cater to the same people that find "timey wimey" hilarious. :|

I think, for me, the strongest and weakest link is the 616 mechanic. For hard core gamers, the roll is contradictory. High numbers are good, except on the 'middle' die, where low is good. I could see this particular setup confusing some entry-level gamers who want the MCU experience. It's a...

Paramount has a whole legal/editorial team devoted to IP approval. Their sole existence is to review any requests from people wanting to use the IP and such. Star Trek itself has an editorial team devoted to it. With the manpower, they can process things rather quickly. I'm not 100% on...

Those 100% don't read sites like these. They are fully dependent on social media of the companies they worship and the podcasts/videos of other zombies and zuzus. If it's not a 'How to build the best ***** deck" or "How to min/max your ****** warrior" they don't have much use for these sites.

@Charles Dunwoody but if you buy a Blu-ray or 4K disc, you automagically get a digital copy through whatever service the company uses. (Usually Movies Anywhere, I believe) It could also be pointed out that almost all of the KS's I've backed over the last 7 or 8 years have ALWAYS included a PDF...

MCG burned me out on the Numenera KS. I bought into it, thinking that people would play it, and I simply forgot that I live in an area that 95% of the players are WoTC Zombies, and the other 5% are Paizozuzus.

Another fine entry into Egg's Fifth Edition Kickstarter Roundup.

As I've pointed out, it's all a cash cow milking anyways.. Example: My FLGS runs a full weekend of AL every other week. If it ran weekly, it would still be filled. On an off week, in an attempt to pitch the C7 Doctor Who RPG, we had a demo game. I signed up because I was curious about the...

Ladies, Gents and creatures of all ages, we have a winner! Their current system isn't selling as good as it should, so what better way to hook 'em than to provide their game in the form of the opiate of the masses? Does the job, leaves nothing but the scent of Brut! See: "Feeding at the teat...

Someone a few pages back used "Critical Role" as an example of 'typical' game play. Believe that, and I've got some swampland in Florida or a Bridge in New York for you. CR is a filmed, edited audio-visual experience, most likely scripted to a certain point by people who are now ACTORS, ie...

Two words: MURDER HOBOES I've played since First Edition, and the majority of my friends were indeed, murder hoboes. Any attempt at role playing were mainly related to in-character discussions on who to kill next, or how to do something with maximum blood shedding, really. This is why I...

For the love of all that is good and holy, NO MORE HISTORY BOOKS! Anyone and everyone who is willing to talk has been and repeatedly interviewed for mutilple books. Unless they can channel the spirits of Gary and Dave, it's a dead horse that everyone seems to want to beat to make some sweet...

As I mentioned in my previous post, I think there is something to be discussed though. Not so much about the fundraiser itself or the why, but in publisher response. Like I said, 3 out of 8 were actual product 'donations' and the rest were coupons. This is akin to Halloween trick or...

This would be worth it, as it has big boy T-Shirts, but alas, I'm not in the UK. It's also worth pointing out that of the 8 offers that come with it, only 3 offer an actual product for nothing. Everything else is a discount for a particular product, or a generic discount in the webstore. If you...

I've been becoming more and more of a fan of the Euro RPG world. A lot of the work seems to be unfettered of the Edition Wars, and have a more organic albeit complex system that works far better than almost anything American published in the last 20 years.

My feelings when the week's report is almost all 5th Ed materials. I think that would be too much work for him, though.

To the best of my knowledge, the ONLY OldGuard that stands with Justin LaNutso is Ernie. I talk to a lot of the Old Guard, and they all pretty much have backed away from Mr. LaNutso. But I think the sentiment is right. We just need to ignore him and he will go away. I've commented elsewhere that...
