To be fair, this isn't Paizo. This is GoblinWorks. My understanding is that they are entirely separate entities. There is obviously a lot of overlap between the two in terms of IP and creative input, but Paizo spun GoblinWorks off deliberately in order to minimize the impact on their core...

Rule #820 of Software Development: "Couldn't you just add these features in real quick? It looks like you've already laid most of the groundwork!" makes developers sad.

I think a quasi-adversarial nature to the DM-player relationship is ideal, actually. Obviously the DM doesn't want to punish the PCs so badly that the campaign falls apart (party wipe, player dissatisfaction, etc.) but the game does play best when the players (and their characters) are...

Yep, that's just about enough of that.

No worries, Mark. It is tremendous news - very happy to see the novel line receive the trade attention it deserves (and to see a Dave Gross novel up first in the queue!).

He isn't being "critiqued" - not in the benign sense you're using it. His personal character is being attacked; he was called divisive, unethical, morally bankrupt, other epithets within the first few posts of this thread. It's not like people are posting his articles and giving thorough...

See, this? You don't need to do this. What you're doing, right here. EN World, as a whole, isn't hostile to Tito. A tiny subset of it is. That subset, however, is here, in this thread, with Tito's name on it. If this thread is his first in-depth exposure to EN World, and this is how he sees...

Are you serious? It was practically a bludgeon. EN World isn't hostile to Tito, either. Just a handful of people whose exposure to him begins and ends with a poorly-constructed narrative tied to a single event. I'm sure he won't, but he gets to choose how much he interacts here. If he feels...

There are about three hundred ways Tito could choose to handle external communications. His job is to decide what the best way to go about that is. Coming across as an openly hostile community - which a number of people in this thread seem very, very intent on doing - is the sort of thing that...

I very, very much doubt that. What he might do, however, is reconsider the value in spending time here, listening to us and communicating with us. The man served as Editor-in-Chief of The Escapist. I think it's safe to say he can handle the internet just fine. But the internet is a big place...

By the way, folks, Tito will almost certainly read this thread, if he hasn't already. Just something to keep in mind when deciding what to say here.

Oh no! A professional mailing list? Why, they're absolutely poised to take over and suppress the internet of 1991!

Cute, but false. As its Alexa page shows, The Escapist has actually improved its traffic ranking since the start of the Gamergate movement, from almost 6,000 in mid-August to its current rank of roughly 4,500 - a massive improvement that has been, aside from temporary traffic spikes (likely due...

Again, this isn't something you're going to magically win ground on. Gamergate isn't an in-the-shadows movement. It's not a secret. It isn't being suppressed by a monolithic, organized conspiracy. We're all familiar with it in at least a passing capacity. You guys lost the...

Unfortunately (or fortunately, one might argue), the ethics and priorities of the Gamergate movement are not shared by most gamers. It's a pretty narrow, vocal bunch that have decided to latch onto Tito's supposed ethical lapses. I think he'll be fine.

Only for Gamergate conspiracy people, really, so I don't think it'll be a problem.

That isn't an article. That's a forum post. It's no more an "article" than what I'm typing right now.

Oh my god what are you even By the way, your d20game.weebly.com website is engaged in an infringing use of ArenaNet property. And the iTorrentz bookmark in your browser toolbar in that screenshot sure shows a clear respect for intellectual property rights. Glad you have a team of the best...

I'd love to see the primary property within the D&D brand become the world's first significant post-tabletop RPG. I want to see someone define that space and figure out how a game can effectively occupy it.

Pardon? I know when the games were released.
