    Would Paizo Make a Better Steward for Our Hobby?

    Yes, I think Paizo would make a better steward for the flagship RPG.

    Mari Kolkowsky (D&D Art Director) got laid off yesterday

    WotC did - before WotC was sold to Hasbro. :) So we got 1.5 - 2 years where they knew what they were doing.

    Pathfinder 1E Current Pathfinder Players: Are you considering switching over to D&D 5E?

    I can see no scenario that has me playing D&D Next instead of Pathfinder. (I don't have time to play/GM more than 1 game at a time.)

    Mari Kolkowsky (D&D Art Director) got laid off yesterday

    She has apparently been there 13 years. For her to survive this long is impressive.

    Did Dragonlance kill D&D and take its stuff? (And a Question of the Way Forward)

    Dragonlance is a mixed bag for me. On the positive side, I loved the original module and the novels were my introduction to fantasy literature. (Before Dragonlance I only read sci-fi.) I've now read tons of fantasy, of course, and looking back, Dragonlance doesn't match up as well as some of...

    Ryan Dancey: This is why there was no M:tG setting for D&D

    Well, like I said, the same person who has a problem with D&D has no problem with World of Warcraft. *facepalm* The difference is that the media of today is not reporting that those who play World of Warcraft (or Magic) are also involved with satanic rituals (like they were in the 80s about D&D).

    Ryan Dancey: This is why there was no M:tG setting for D&D

    A relative of mine (who knows nothing about D&D other than the name) today still believes D&D is related to satanic practices, but has no problem with his kid playing World of Warcraft. The D&D brand has baggage from the 80s that Magic simply doesn't have. Yes, it's stupid, but the perception...

    What is the Greatest Dungeon Crawl Ever Published?

    Rappan Athuk for me is #1. My favorite one from TSR was Greyhawk Ruins.

    ICv2 has D&D in third place after Star Wars

    Interesting. Paizo usually keeps such numbers close to the vest, so I'm surprised to see this out there. I wonder if it's accurate.

    ICv2 has D&D in third place after Star Wars

    I was thinking that too. However, those books are god-awful expensive.

    When and how did you learn to play D&D?

    1981. My parents bought the basic set as a gift for me. If they had only known what they were starting....

    Hypothetical question for 3pp: 5e goes OGL what would you publish?

    It certainly makes sense to be more inclusive than exclusive (since being exclusive didn't seem to work out for them). Of course, a free OGL-like license was supposed to happen with 4E too, so we'll see if they actually release something acceptable to 3PPs or not.

    Pathfinder 1E Bestiary 4 or do we really need another monster book?

    Yep. Bokrug, Cthulhu, and Hastur are stated up as "Great Old Ones" (pages 135-141).

    Pathfinder 1E Bestiary 4 or do we really need another monster book?

    I'd say we do want this one because since they introduced the Mythic rules, they will now go higher on the monster CRs. Plus, there's Cthulhu. :)
