Not to take anything away from this Osprey game but ZineQuest 2 Produced such a game. The Bone Age - Weird School RPG [Zine Quest]

Both this game and Romance of the Perilous Lands are new beautiful games from Osprey. I hope they do well because I want to see what Osprey does next.

I thnk I understand Gary's sentiment in the context of the way a lot of people played D&D back then. As well as selling their own settings I think they really wanted people making their own worlds, sometimes on the fly, using their own imagination. I wonder what Gary would think of the world of...

Yes it was. The voice of end at the bit still kills me. "Well that was our show it was the best we could do."

TFOS was one of the first games I played regularly as a pre-teen. I remember the game being really open as far as character creation, though that may be just how that guy was running it. I was very happy that my character was a Samurai Pizza Cat, as that was the only anime other than Voltron and...

But how will I argue with the GM that my knowledge geology skill should let me know the weakness of a rock elemental? But I did enjoy the GM narration from the early parts of DDO.

Should probably read the book again.

Those ones mentioned are good. Charisma is important, the ability to get people listening to you and interested in what you are saying. Empathy is good. When you are being empathetic then you are feeling the fun that your players are having. I would say Empathy might be the most important thing...

This is how I end up with a shelf full of stuff I'll never play.

Cleave is a funny feat, we all know. I have often felt like it was wasted on creatures though. Do your players get dropped enough that a creature ever gets to use it? I am thinking of replacing the normal Cleave with a monster version, something humanoids cant usually get like multi-attack, so...

More of everything. But I would like to see more original ideas. In this current boom of licensed games, games as advertisement, and nostalgia games, what are the chances any new IP can really brake through? A lot of game ideas seem original but if I think about them, the influence is obvious...

This is cool. I don't particularly care that it was MtG or 5e for that matter. I have never run a greek myth themed game. The idea of playing in an ancient time is interesting. I always wanted to do the ancient Rome setting for Vampire Requiem but have found that it takes too much teaching on my...

I like a lot of character creation options, its why EQ2 was my favorite mmo. I try and discourage my players from picking a race for the stats. Concept first!

Delve has a cool idea to gamify building a dungeon. The idea could be taken forward for building fantasy cities our maybe even whole worlds.

I really enjoyed the recent Steam game but wished it was more than two player multi player. I would prefer to play WITH my friends and against randoms or something.

Cyteen takes place in the Alliance Union universe, along with books like Hellburner, Down Below Station and Merchanter's Luck. The new Alliance Union book was called Alliance Rising and takes place a bit earlier in the timeline than Cyteen does, before the war mentioned in that book. I believe...

With a growing fanbase for the IP it makes since to capitalize. This does lead to the inevitable lipstick on a pig situation. What I would like is for gog.com to finish their redo of Pools of Radiance: Ruins of Myth Drannor. A much maligned game which is my favorite. I even have the module that...

I'm not seeing all that much love for Malazan books. I only do them as audio. You think there would be a game out for it by now too, especially seeing as it was born orignally from the author learning to play AD&D.

I don't think anyones character in WFRP is "good" really nothing in that seeing turns out all that well for anyone. Certainly a low of WoD games have struggling with good an evil from the jump and that is their purpose. The big campaign in Travaller is called Pirates of Drinax. Everyone is a...

I think there is a difference between justification and concept. If the concept is that the character is a baby eating anti-paladin but is working with the rest of the party for specific reasons like a shared enemy then I allow it as long as it continues to fit. If those goals become misaligned...
