    Worlds of Design: Kickstarter and the Evolution of Game Crowdfunding

    Autarch got *something* out (and this is no knock against them, they by all rights could have just walked away), but it was not exactly what pledgers paid for, it when they expected it. To me, Dwimmermount is a classic example of a Kickstarter that never should have happened. James M. gave us...

    Worlds of Design: Kickstarter and the Evolution of Game Crowdfunding

    I'm surprised I don't hear more noise about this debacle. I almost bought into this one, intrigued by the idea of what was presented basically as WoW with PFRPG rules. When the initial art and demos came out, I was surprised at how limited and amateurish it looked, and it never got any better...

    Worlds of Design: Kickstarter and the Evolution of Game Crowdfunding

    Ouch. These are the kind of Kickstarters, where they basically take the money and run, that I'm surprised aren't more vigorously pursued by a local State attorney's office. Someone selling say fake vitamins at farmers market for half that much money would be locked up and heavily fined, but the...

    NORTHLANDS - 900 Pages Of Adventure for PATHFINDER and S&W

    The Kickstarter very clearly says "for Pathfinder and Swords of Wizardry". It stands to reason there was some sort of decision making process behind not offering 5e and not just a random whim or typo ;)

    NORTHLANDS - 900 Pages Of Adventure for PATHFINDER and S&W

    Anyone know why they stopped doing 5e stuff? Did their 5e monster book sell poorly?

    Froghemoths & Flail Snails - Oh My! Chris Perkins' New Adventure Sneak Peek

    The real question is - and Perkins' post may even imply this - will this new story line be accompanied by a Monster Manual 2?

    HELL's REBELS Art From Paizo's Adventure Path

    Paizo's got some of the best art/layout in the business. I'd love to see them do the next 5E AP!

    D&D 5E (2014) Whimsy in your game?

    I think without a bit of humor, D&D can get a bit... cringey

    FORBES: Out of the Abyss preview

    "Corpsetaker" is not amused lol. I've liked all the previews so far, and am glad to see some personality injected into the adventure. Forgotten Realms can come across as a bit Middle-Earth-Lite if you're not careful to add a helping of Sword & Sorcery and a dash of humor.

    D&D 5E (2014) So what happened at GenCon with relation to 5th edition?

    I did. What? Not enough snark or negativity for you? I happen to think that many gamers gathered together having a good time is pretty cool.

    Check out the 5E PRIMEVAL THULE Table of Contents!

    Question for the Sasquatch crew: having already purchased the hardcover of the Pathfinder version (though I run 5e), will a short .pdf of the 5e conversions be available?

    Thanks!

    FANTASY AGE Can Now Be YOURS!

    I there a QuickStart or Demo version of the game to check out gratis? I'm hesitant to pick up another fantasy heartbreaker without at least a rudimentary knowledge of how the system works.

    Primeval Thule Campaign Setting

    5 out of 5 rating for Primeval Thule Campaign Setting I was a little hesitant to pick this up, as 5E and 1E are my games of choice lately, but I had nothing to worry about. I think I was about 200 or so pages into the book before I saw the first bit of Pathfinder crunch, and even then it was...

    D&D 5E (2014) Converting Primeval Thule to 5e - which version is easier to do?

    Primeval Thule is a beautiful book, incidentally.

    D&D 5E (2014) Converting Primeval Thule to 5e - which version is easier to do?

    I bought the Pathfinder version, because I've already been converting Rise of the Runelords and had no problems. I don't even know to start with 13th Age lol...

    D&D 5E (2014) 5e Fighter, Do You Enjoy Playiing It?

    I have a blast with my two-weapon fighter, Kazak the Slayer, on the rare opportunities I get to play him (I usually DM). I'd like to try a finesse fighter (battlemaster?) some time in the future as well.
