I never had a game console, but I had a PC with CD ROM... a 386 SX box from 1992-1997, then a Pentium MMX from 97-2000... I had the combined Populous 2/Power Monger CD... loved those games. :)

Probably not; elsewhere Baur said that Kobold will be making no further products for Pathfinder 1e.

Axe of the Dwarvish Lords 11 Blade of Avernus 1 Hand of Vecna 16 Infernal Machine of Lum the Mad 13 Orrery of the Wanderer 15 Sword of Kas 15 It's a sword, and it's not even Excalibur. Wyrmskull Throne 3

(Another related thing I liked as I read through the Midgard Worldbook... ...it manages to be a world with a serious hero shortage without turning grimdark (the tone is closer to Greyhawk, if it had 2e Forgotten Realms magic levels). No Drizz't, Elminster, Seven Sisters or Minsc to be found...

One of the things I like about the way Midgard does it is that while the villains and gods stories may advance, there are no canonical uber-heroes to steal your characters thunder - it's assumed that whoever did the deeds that advanced the plot from the modules (like Freeing Nethus) would differ...

For me, that experience was AD&D 2e. Trying to balance and rationalize EVERYTHING in the Complete Books AND Player's Option... was the sort of quixotic undertaking that 16 year old me reveled in. (And as soon as 3e came out, I promptly and happily tossed it all!)

If you can get away with the "15 minute adventuring day", your DM just sucks. The only time that should ever be an option is: 1. When you have spells like Leomund's Tiny Hut/Mord's Magnificent Mansion, and your enemies are not magically sophisticated enough to understand/deal with this. 2. When...

Sadly this is the John Wick I'm talking about: Though being the guy who created 7th Sea and L5R, yeah, I'd say he knows killin' too. (And he confessed on his blog to losing all his friends in middle school after he killed them all with the demon face in the Tomb of Horrors. So he understands...

Certainly good points. This is why I try to emphasize feelings of fear and menace when the party encounters "real bad mofos" and often have them make Wis or Int checks to help them establish where they are in the pecking order, as well as asking "are you sure?" when they do something that would...

Alright, I'm in! It's Kobold Press, so the odds I wouldn't be were... well... zero.

Yeah, that was why, despite it being a great way to meet and hang out with goth chicks, I burned out on V:TM pretty quickly. I read the manual and thought it seemed incredible, especially compared to the AD&D hackfests I was used to... ...and every storyteller I played with pretty much ran it...

To this I'd add Tim Kask's pet peeve about players these days vs. players in the old days: Take these rumors: -there are giant rats infesting Old Man Willers barn -goblins are setting up camp in a nearby ruin -bandits are raiding a nearby trade route -a wyvern built a lair on Mt. Perilous...

Ooh, but that's what I call fun! (And is basically how my current campaign has gone... they made a slew of enemies in Zobeck… then a big bad one in the skies above Morgau… then several new ones in Loshtadt… and there are about to be a few more added this weekend... :) )

I'm not a fan of those either, but I don't mind them so much because all you have to do is divide everything by 5 and voila, it's a d20-based system. :) Those silly FFG dice, though... grr....

my hat of d02 know no limit …. just kidding! Hate is far too strong a word to use, but I have a very strong aversion to games - both RPGs and board games - that use custom non-numerical dice. That's been FFG's thing for the past decade, and it drives me bonkers. I just want numbers, guys...
