I skipped the Kickstarter for Kingmaker, but I might go in on this one.

I know! Even for a RPG comment thread, this is an amazingly wrongheaded post. I thought it was sarcasm for the first couple of sentences.

Bob was a relation of Bud Appel, in fact rumored to be Bud’s adopted son. So... was he?

Looking over my Kickstarter pledges (apologies for any duplicates my skimming of the thread didn't uncover): They Came From Beneath the Sea! - Onyx Path Publishing Night Shift: Veterans of the Supernatural Wars - Elf Lair Games Thousand-Year-Old Vampire - Dear Leader Games Unspeakable: Sigil &...

"A few rules: It must be a standalone tabletop RPG, NOT a supplement, setting, adventure, sourcebook, expansion, or accessory. If there is a QuickStart version, or a preview, it’s the full release that counts. It must be due out to the general public in 2020. It must be nominated by at least...

I was in the same boat, but I was a teenager skipping lunch to use my parents' lunch money on games (and comic books)! There were so many books (and boxed sets!) that sounded like they'd be awesome, I'd sit there poring over the TSR (and White Wolf) catalogs agonizing over which ones I could...

Like macd21 said: Geist: The Sin-Eaters, Second Edition

Why do you keep trying to steer these threads into political territory? This isn't the first time you've tried to derail a thread. You know the rules around here. There's plenty of precedent for a larger game company contracting a smaller company for development (e.g., Kobold Press and...

I had no problem with this article--maybe because I came in after they altered the headline--but on top of this phenomenon they've also had several "interviews" lately with no actual interviews in them. Strange journalistic choices going around.

That doesn't sound like us. Are you sure? /s

(I'm confident he was making a joke.)

As long as it's not a bite of frozen beef, apparently.

Hero Lab is a great product (or was when I used it regularly in my 3.x days) and I don't wish the Stephens' situation on anyone. Hope things work out for all parties.

I was one of those '90s teens who fawned over pretty much anything White Wolf put out in their heyday, so I ran a 3rd edition campaign of Ars Magica back when that was the current version (ignoring the troupe play; I was in junior high and didn't want to bother talking my players into it). My...

I continue to be impressed with how Chaosium has turned things around the last few years. What a great "second act" for the company. I also appreciate when Abstruse takes the time to break down complex or minutiae-laden topics for filthy casuals like myself, including the explanation of "fair...

...Is it the magic? It's the magic, isn't it?

By god, you saw your opportunity and you took it!

I imagine this will come up in this column eventually, but Troll Lord Games is currently Kickstarting a 5e-compatible version of its pulp RPG, Amazing Adventures: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/676918054/amazing-adventures-5e-rpg Well funded already, knocking down stretch goals, etc.

I patronized the local game stores he owned (and still do, under their different ownerships) before he sold them a couple of years back. I can't say I knew him well beyond some regular customer-clerk small talk, but he was certainly a prominent presence in the game scene here, and will be missed...

I thought of it, too, but that would have been well outside the scope of what's clearly a promotional interview and would have come across as a non-sequitur in context.
