Both my groups migrated to Roll20. Got 6 one night and 5 the other, and as GM my main issue has been me narrating something with my cat yelling at me loudly.....

Paizo not including more adventure paths on Roll20 is a shame. I think you're off the mark on the support level, though....I've been using Roll20 and am 8 sessions in with our ongoing pathfinder 2E game, and for the first time we are using maps and tokens thanks to how easy it is with Roll20...

Very interesting....my group has has the opposite experience, although I will concede that it probably has to do with the fact that my group gets a lot of whatit needs out of Pathfinder 2E, and the perks of 2E (which include the action economy, more fully realized heightened spell mechanic, and...

I embraced Starfinder when I realized it was conceptually much closer to Spelljammer and a spiritual successor to Dragonstar; when I stopped trying to make Starfinder "Traveller, but D20" and instead treated it as "Pathfinder, but with laser guns in spaaaaaace" it started working really well for...

One neither peers into nor (wisely) pees into a hot wind. But I could totally see the miners being minors.

Making a version for Cypher System will get me hooked in on this one.

I think you're taking the wrong lessons here (well, took the wrong lessons). I strongly believe Kickstarters will work better if you review your intent from a consumer's perspective. You not only need to believe in your product but you need to look at your product --a difficult task-- through...

I would definitely buy that!

If I wanted to buy this product (I do) where would I find it?

A lot of the LARPS and other games which presume player conflict as a valid option can pull this off. As an aside, it's funny but the bots in Fortnite allowed my son to finally get a Victory Royale. He's 8, so that's a big deal.

I'm a fan too, but agree completely....the aesthetic could use a shakeup.

I have three games going, one with 14 sessions in (hitting level 6 now), one with about 8 sessions in (hitting level 4 in that group) and a third group playing starting at level 12 and about 3 sessions in (no advancement yet). My top five takes so far as the GM: 1. CR -4/+4 to party level is...

I'll keep my reasons simple. I ran PF1E from day one to 2014 then took a break and went to 5E. I ran some more 1E last year with a good group for a bit. Adopting 5E for me boils down to this: 1. I have minimal prep time to GM and I am the only GM for the group. Pathfinder 2E maximizes my prep...

Yep. As an example: there's like a half-page, one bar section on running encounters in combat in the abstract (theater of the mind) style, with a description of how to do it. That tiny side text section right there is literally all I need to get my more rules-minded players on board with how to...

I've been running Pathfinder 2E exclusively since it came out between two groups. One group is hitting level 6 now from weekly play; another group is just hitting level 4, and there is a bi-weekly group which started at level 12 and is about four sessions in. So far, it's been a far easier GM...

This here is pretty key. In PF2E it's pretty clear that most threats which are above or below 4 CRs from the PCs will either be trivial or deadly. If trivial....let the players tell you how they solve the issue. If deadly, let the players know they are about to die and should consider plan B.

It is possible they realize they can't compete with 5E in that market, and are trying for the slightly smaller market of people like me who want a system with a bit more teeth to it, but which still is designed for ease of access. I'm loving Pathfinder precisely because it's closer to my...

I ranked it excellent, though I have some caveats to that. Pros: 1. 3 action economy grows on you and feels very natural 2. Combat works great with TotM play 3. it is super GM friendly 4. I like the DM mechanic and the easy way things scale 5. Lots and lots of minor revisions and tweaks in...

@Mistwell back in the early eighties my distinct recollection was that everyone played B/X except me (although I did start with it) and I was the "guy who had the AD&D books," ergo I was the cool DM. As I recall, by mid eighties no one seemed to play it anymore, having graduated to other games...

So true! I have gamed with at least one person who spoke to me earnestly about how he liked the design quality of Warhammer Fantasy because it was so inspired by World of Warcraft. Thankfully it turns out the muscles in your eyes don't let you eye roll so hard you can injure yourself.....
