In all seriousness I like this news. I keep saying this, but it never becomes any less true -- give us 1,000-foot updates rather than rehash the 10,000-foot material we've already purchased or could get at a discount from dndclassics.com. I just hope future APs include more relevant setting...

Good to know! :)

The new Pathfinder Alchemy Manual is pretty awesome, for a staple-bound player aid. I'm not sure if I'll have the time or inclination to do any conversions of it for D&D5 but if the book flew under your radar and you are interested in alchemy in D&D it might be worth your time to pick up.

This wasn't a negative April Fools joke? *waggles eyebrows at Shemeska* ;)

I'm glad to hear that D&D5 is not impacting Pathfinder sales. I hope it continues to be true and also that Pathfinder does not impact D&D5 sales. These are two very different games and it would disappoint me to learn that people weren't making use of both rulesets. That said, I just dropped a...

No, no, this was a Wizards.com article; the first look at the D&D5 halfling. It was in the very early days of the playtest. We all screamed bloody murder about the Fathead and Creepyhands halfling subraces and Jon Freaking Schindehette *shakes fist* said that we needed to understand the...

You joke, but I'm still waiting for a map of the damn city that doesn't repeat itself. You wouldn't catch TSR trying to pull that crap with Waterdeep or Greyhawk.

I never really abandoned the playtest but I definitely lost a lot of faith at one point. Skill dice just seemed like such a terrible idea. I know I had other concerns but I don't have a firm recollection. The final playtest packet was good enough that I convened a group of old D&D buddies and...

Obligatory shout out to the eternal skies of Arcadia. Once a Blue Rogue, always a Blue Rogue.

This is such a minor concern that I hesitate to even mention it, but I was actually turned off by how non-committal the adventure was about Tharizdun. It actually uses the phrase "The Elder Elemental Eye -- whatever that is" at one point. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ I know Tharizdun being the EEE is...

I'm not sure why you'd think that given the total absence of evidence and clear statements to the contrary made by the developers. Yeah, I think that if I moved the Ruins of Undermountain to Oerth it would be evidence of a setting bias.

I really dig this book from page 243 on. The setting conversion suggestions are full of love and well received, and the concept art reminds me of my favorite pieces from D&D3. I actually had to check to see if they'd brought Lockwood back (they hadn't :( ). But it's too little to justify a...

Sorry, Brock, but Illinois is one of 19 other states that have already passed similar religious freedom legislation.

*cough* Thanks, Morrus. :blush:

Many companies at GAMA hold presentations. Most of them tell industry peers about upcoming plans and about sales and other figures for the last year. Fantasy Flight Games is no exception, and they showed a graph of some phenomenal recent growth, no doubt partly buoyed by great licenses...

I had to check a few times to make sure it was the 2015 presentation.

I thought the concept of power sources was extremely robust. I used to have impassioned arguments with folks that Wizards ought to fill out the power source/role grid. Then Wizards made 84 gajillion arcane controllers and couldn't figure out a single martial controller and I lost interest...

None of this appears to be "news," but this article has a shot-by-shot of the Wizards presentation: http://www.figures.com/forums/showthread.php?t=72532
