    Share your background music playlists / resources

    I queue up a number of soundtracks, some Two Steps from Hell, some video game themes, some new age - then put it on shuffle. I don't try to create a specific mood for any specific part, but have semi-appropriate music that doesn't have lyrics.

    Kobold Press' Midgard setting has a lot a great stuff in it.

    D&D 5E (2014) Anyone else finding character advancement pretty dull?

    Part of the reason I jumped from PF to 5E was the slower release schedule of Crunch. Both in money spent, and in keeping up with all the stuff in the game. The marketing of the game is for more casual players and a lot of new people. The lower level of crunch is perfect for that market. And if...

    Looking for solo & 2-player tabletop recommendations

    My wife and I only play co-op games. I'll admit we go for the more complex games - so I only have a few. Stuffed Fables - it's a story based move around the board and fight game (sorta dungeon crawler) - but you play as stuffed animals, so the theme and style of the game help overcome the...

    PF2E POLL

    I likely won't play it, but then I moved from PF to D&D5E a while ago. The chassis is amazing - the open structure of classes, with ancestory and other options is the most flexible iteration of the children of 3.0. I like the three action round, and spell system, and resonance (which I know...

    Golarion update to 2e?

    I think that they said something about assuming every Adventure path had been run as part of default for 2E. While 1st edition PF had separate rule and settings line 2E is going to be more like Starfinder, with the stuff all together.

    Plight of the New RPG: Shattered Dawn - Part 1

    And the issues I've had with this writer for decades pops it's head again. A mediocre article, if a bit slanted, then the above is stated blithely dismissing people who don't play the way he does as not worth considering- something he does often. Makes respecting his opinion (no matter what he...

    Resonance, Potency, & Potions: A Look At Magic Items in Pathfinder 2

    The thing I found nice were Runes. Can just be special abilities for weapons you already own for treasure. Made me think of Bladerunes from Rolemaster 2nd, and Materia from FF. I made my peace with resonance a while ago.

    Two New Settings For D&D This Year

    yeah - I am really thinking a Planescape/Spelljammer combo - lots of groundwork for Planescape as has been mentioned; and for spelljammer Neogi and Giff are in books, and mention of a spelljamming helm in the upcoming books. Themetically a ships sailing astral seas fits within Planescape (I...

    12 new monster images revealed from Mordenkainen’s Tome of Foes!

    After playing through 5 editions (and then some) I'm letting that sort of be my guide - if there is humor in the PH/DMG. 1st ed had the cartoon "+5 backscrater" "Last mostser we talked to ate half the party" "papers and paychecks". 2nd - I didn't see much of it, but aside from Spelljammer it...

    D&D 5E (2014) Why does 5E SUCK?

    I was just contrasting complicated games and simpler games are both great - and people like different things, when you seemed to be scoffing at the idea that simple games can be as fun as complicated one.

    D&D 5E (2014) Why does 5E SUCK?

    lulz. I play Hero as my primary system, I scoff at the "complicated" 3.5 claims*. I also love 5E. People like different things.. some individuals like different things all by themselves. There is no one true system for anyone. * Note playing to stereotypes, I actually find Hero less...

    Survivor Iconic Cities- GREYHAWK WINS!

    I wasn't the one to vote it down, but it is gone. Woohoo. I really didn't care about the other cities, I got into this for no other reason that to help vote down Sigil. (Planescape is my least favorite setting for D&D by far, and Sigil is what I disliked distilled).
