    At Least 4 Months For Conversion Documents

    How disappointing. The conversion documents are the ideal solution for those who are not satisfied with 5E's comparatively very slow release schedule.

    D&D 5E (2014) What does 5E NEED

    Good conversion guides to use products from other D&D editions. If they made those, drivethrurpg would already provide anything anyone ever needed.

    7 Years of D&D Stories? And a "Big Reveal" Coming?

    Maybe we'll get to pay 50% more for the same content too! Woo-hoo!

    D&D 5E (2014) So what exactly is Wizards working on?

    They may be using the Adventurer's League to help determine popularity. If the AL numbers grow, then they can continue their current light schedule. If the numbers shrink, then they will have a decision to make. As someone wrote upthread - if they can sell 1 million copies of 1 book it's...

    D&D 5E (2014) So what exactly is Wizards working on?

    I think we need to remember that this new, slower schedule is unprecedented for WotC. As mearls has indicated, they are still trying to figure out the best mix of product vs. profitability in this new reality. Once they figure it out, product releases are likely to be more consistent. Still...

    D&D 5E (2014) So what exactly is Wizards working on?

    I'm guessing they are working on this year's Gen Con release. Something like the Forgotten Realms Campaign Setting or Monster Manual 2.

    Pathfinder STRATEGY GUIDE Preview

    Looks like the perfect book to make character creation less intimidating. I like it!

    Dwarven Forge Now Wants To Build Cities!

    This is one of those things that seems really cool, but I know that I would never use it. I'm going to pass on this one.

    Second 5th Edition Survey! Plus Results of the First Survey: The Ranger Gets Some Attention!

    Sounds good. That seems to sum up the most-oft-repeated qualms about the edition.

    [UPDATED] What's Paizo's "Big News"?

    Essentially for the consumer the TOR announcement seems to boil down to: The books will be the same length, but in a different format and $5 more. Yay.

    So...how 'bout them Patriots?

    [UPDATED] What's Paizo's "Big News"?

    Pathfinder Ice Cream!

    D&D 5E (2014) Am I the only one that dislikes Adventure Paths?

    Exactly. I think one plays an AP knowing that a little (or more) railroading is going to happen. You play for the challenge of dealing with whatever's thrown at you while realizing that it's not a free-form campaign. The GM I think has to be alert to how players are responding, and if the...

    D&D 5E (2014) Reasons Why My Interest in 5e is Waning

    I like Pathfinder, but crunch "creep"? Have you seen Mythic Adventures? It's a world-record setting, grand canyon-pole-vaulting long jump! Forget about "creep"! :)

    Paizo Tells You About the PATHFINDER STRATEGY GUIDE

    It's my fault - I'm buying them. :)

    D&D 5E (2014) Reasons Why My Interest in 5e is Waning

    Or you can look at it in a positive light - praised if you do and praised if you don't. (There's plenty of praise in this thread for what WotC has done.) :)

    So What IS Happening to Tabletop Roleplaying Games? Dancey & Mearls Let You Know!

    Mearls was spot on for me regarding time. In the 80s, I'd spend hours and hours designing D&D adventures. Now, I'd rather watch something on Netflix or surf the web when I have free time. To me, though, that's what's so VERY appealing about Pathfinder - tons of pre-made adventures that I...

    So What IS Happening to Tabletop Roleplaying Games? Dancey & Mearls Let You Know!

    No, not at all. I love playing and running Pathfinder. I don't love designing it. Pathfinder combat duration isn't an issue for my group, but then, we like the tactical part as well as the role-playing part.
