    Pathfinder 1E Are people still playing Pathfinder 1e?

    You seem positively reasonable!

    Pathfinder 1E Are people still playing Pathfinder 1e?

    This is an interesting exchange. I was a bit shocked at the suggestion it could have been worse than the massive, bitter, years-long, business-spawning and brand-damaging that were the 4E Edition Wars… but then I never hung out on the Paizo boards. I didn’t take an interest in Pathfinder until...

    Pathfinder 1E Are people still playing Pathfinder 1e?

    So for whatever this metric is worth, several times I’ve compared the number of users online at the two main Pathfinder subreddits (r/Pathfinder and r/Pathfinder2e). Usually the PF2e sub has about 60-80% more users online than the other Pathfinder sub, where PF1e content is still common. Right...

    News Digest for the Week of September 16

    Dang, I just preordered PF2e Kingmaker this week from an LGS, and the store’s website said it was due for release next week (week of Sept 18, IIRC). I guess I’ll be waiting a bit longer! Any word about PF2e’s Crown of the Kobold King, which I also preordered??

    D&D General Dave Arneson’s Pitch for the future of TSR and D&D in ‘97 to Peter Adkison

    I maintain that the D&D of the past six years has been successful despite 5E as much as because of it. In my perception, the biggest drivers of the TTRPG hobby over that time have been streaming (esp. Critical Role, but many other shows and podcasts too), online play (technically possible in...

    News Digest for the Week of September 9

    Damning, if true. I have no objection to them removing awful content, but it’s a bad look if that content itself was brand new and written by them

    D&D 5E (2014) The DUNGEON DELVER'S GUIDE Is Live!

    !!! Okay that sounds dope. Maybe I could get the HC for Dungeon Delver’s at the same time as an add-on? I’m only into this one at the PDF level currently, and my objective is to minimize shipping costs.

    D&D 5E (2014) Official Dragonlance Minis Are On The Way!

    I understand. Personally I get frustrated if I don’t get enough use out of my minis—they just become wasted plastic. No judgement on anyone who loves minis, but I think there’s a real addiction possible with minis (speaking from experience) and so I urge caution. I also think the world has...

    D&D 5E (2014) The DUNGEON DELVER'S GUIDE Is Live!

    I might still too! What I need is several friends who also want this book, then we can combine shipping haha

    D&D 5E (2014) The DUNGEON DELVER'S GUIDE Is Live!

    I’m afraid you’re right. Oh well, PDFs are still pretty accessible.

    D&D 5E (2014) The DUNGEON DELVER'S GUIDE Is Live!

    I want this so bad, to sit on my shelf alongside my other A5E books… but alas, foreign exchange and Canadian shipping costs may keep me at the digital tier. (Not the fault of the creators!) But $100 CAD is a steep price for one book. Not expecting a solution from anyone, just commiserating with...

    Coyote & Crow: Stories of the Free Lands: An Interview with Connor Alexander

    Meh, no game is gonna satisfy everyone. Good luck with whatever you choose next. Happy gaming!

    Coyote & Crow: Stories of the Free Lands: An Interview with Connor Alexander

    That’s true, cultural exchange and appropriation is a real tight-rope. Food is always an easy example to relate to, but it’s also so low-stakes. For something more difficult, the Pope recently visited Canada to apologize for the Catholic Church’s role in the Indigenous residential schools...

    Coyote & Crow: Stories of the Free Lands: An Interview with Connor Alexander

    I surely would have too. It’s very hard to say the right thing all the time, even if you’re well intentioned, and especially as standards shift over time. “PR speak” is one defense, but even that can age poorly, and has the ugly side-effect of gradually reducing discourse to mealy-mouthed...

    Coyote & Crow: Stories of the Free Lands: An Interview with Connor Alexander

    Fair enough! I think that’s what I’ve been trying to go for anyway. lol “Must” was a stylistic choice when I wrote it. I chose it to emphasize my point, which was just that if I’ve reasoned my way to my position and believe it’s ethically sound, then I shouldn’t let idle criticisms sway me. I...

    Coyote & Crow: Stories of the Free Lands: An Interview with Connor Alexander

    This is a good list, a deep dive into some of the arguments out there. Thanks for that. Alas, as an outsider, I struggle with how to engage these complaints. I think, in the absence of a specific compelling argument against me playing Coyote & Crow, I must play it anyway. I don’t think I can...
