As much as I am in the 5E camp, I have no desire to grief PF2 over downtime rules. It's a logical and important thing to include, and is not so intrinsically associated with D&D that it looks out of place elsewhere. I would be more shocked to see them not include downtime rules.

Okay fine. I concede your point. But there were thousands of us watching this stream for our own enjoyment. So it rubs me a little wrong to see you complaining that WotC was refusing to give you inside information and failed to deliver on something you hypothesized. WotC was very clear about...

Oh forgive me. I forgot you were the only person watching the stream capable of sharing the news I am sure the news might have taken at least five minutes more to appear had you not shared it. :P

WotC is not beholden to your schedule. Your decision to watch the stream on the chance that there might have been a reveal, so you could know immediately, was yours. You were not coerced. If you didn't care about the stream, there are alternate venues where you can get the news of a new...

Reading this post reminded me of talk about development of another system that would enable all classes to have their own cool maneuvers and flourishes like in an action movie. 4E :P

Well I feel really sorry for anyone who makes new players feel unwelcome,. especially female players. My preferred group always has at least one female player. I find that (often, not always) they bring a different dynamic to the table than their male counterparts. Many are more invested in the...

Good advice but is this a bigger problem than I am aware of? I have been playing since 99 and DMing nearly as long, and every campaign I have run has had at least one new player in it. I like having new players in the group. Is there an issue with new players being ostracized and made to feel...

Well the obvious answer is look at 5e. A wizard can throw 1d10 fire bolts until the cows come home but that barbarian might be wielding a 1d12 greataxe and +4 strength damage. And then he rages. And we must remember classes are balanced in more than offense. Wizards are squishy high profile...

I always disliked how 3e put a limit on cantrip use. Looks like Pathfinder is continuing this trend wherein a low level wizard who has cast all his offense spells for the day now gets to be a really bad fighter with lousy attack bonus, lousy damage, lousy ac, and lousy hp. Joy! Swing that...

It really is a shame. There's so many skills one can learn from roleplaying, and several youth oriented RPGs these days as well. And with the hobby having a renaissance of inclusion (Not just for socially awkward teenage boys wearing cloaks in their basement anymore!) the girl scouts could help...

The website that offers these patches is careful to point out that they are patches, not badges. That as much as they would like to be an official badge, they are not recognized as such.

Your eyes are being tricked. It's like the laurel/yanny thing. Half the people on this page see stats for the ogre and the other half see the redcap. :D

Never mind. I see from the website that that is the bugbear.

Redcap pictured? I sincerely hope that's a mistake of else the art director needs to be fired since that gremlin on steroids has no cap, no boots, and no scythe. Probably the ogre?

Also a fair comparison but the thing that always stood out to me with the Paeliryon was its liberal use of lipstick, rouge and eyeshadow.

And the winner is...whichever book sold the best because 90% of our voters have never heard of 90%, of the stuff on this list. Maybe we should start a new category called Best...that isn't D&D.

Since Open Sesame comes from Ali Baba, not Aladdin, you may have unwittingly helped prove my point.

Colonials? :D Just kidding. I know the word you are hinting at and wish I didn't. D&D has no need of it.

The beauty of Paranoia is that it pits you against the most dangerous foe present in any RPG: the players seated at the table with you. The toughest dragons, evil liches and crazed demigods in other RPGs are all designed with the intention that the players should prove victorious, and they...

Or this 3E devil that always looked to me like it was into Disney cosplay.
