Later. Stevens had the info months before ICv2 published it.

Yeah. Paizo's CEO, Lisa Stevens, knew before ICv2 released the info that PF had out sold D&D as early as 2009 if I remember correctly. She had a blog post about it that I'm way to lazy to search cause it won't mean anything anyway. And I was a bit jesting in my original post. StarDungeons and...

I just wonder if you combined the sells of PF and SF they out sell StarDungeons and StarDragons or not.

Dinklage a vulgar human!? He is a demi-god for nerds! Bow in shame. Go drink wine and lie on the lap of a prostitute and pray you are forgiven.

It is a possible explanation, but if you have strong scenario to start with it shouldn't affect the quality of the story. If you also have a Kevin Feige like long term story planned, it helsp too. Ever since DD season 2, it has been explicite that they do not know where to take the story of the...

I'm pretty Disney is letting the quality of it's Defenders shows on Netflix go downhill because it is starting its own streaming service. Ever since Luke Cage the quality wasn't there. Iron Fist was laughable. DD season was about stalling. The Punisher and the Defenders just didn't deliver...

You sir, are a brave one among the braves. Only those who dare read C.J. Cherryh's Foreigner series are braver then thee. We, who turned away from series, salute you and your courage... And the free time you seem to have that we do not.

I think that by buy only physical copies I spend less overhaul, because I'm not tempted by these sales that are real bargains but stack up rapidly. It also forces me to buy novels that I know I'll read (eventually) as opposed to books that I'll probably read... at some point... down the line...

I thought this would be about Lovecraftian racism* in D&D games. * I love the author's work, I even visites Providence Rhode Island to see this tomb, houses, and the library he and Edgar Allen Poe visited. But the man was racist, yo.

So WotC won the battle with 5e (yeah, yeah, everyone who works at both companies will tell us there never was a battle even if there was one for market shares). Paizo lost market shares. Essentially, 3rd edition lasted 18 years. Longest edition ever. Sure it had reboots and tweeks, but the bulk...

There are good short stories and bad ones, just like novels. The problem is that if you buy a short story collection* you'll have good and bad fiction and it will detere you from buying more collections as it wasn't all good, whether from the same author or a bunch of authors. Ashame really...

Rading Pump Six by Paolo Bacigalupi. It is a collection of short stories. I bought on sale after reading and loving the Windup Girl. So far, two stories down and liking it. Bacigalupi juggles with one high concept and one main character per story and tries to develop both in 30 pages or less...

I started playing D&D with 2nd edition and feats didn't exist back then and my friends and I loved that edition. It took us time to even consider looking into 3rd edition. But once we looked into it, feats widen a window that was already there with kits. Kits were made available in the class...

Yeah, the main actors lacks charisma. "But those abs, right?" Said some producer.

Saw the first episode. Not bad, but it lacks soul. Will continue watching.

Snowcash is a masterful work that subverts expectations. A cinematic car chase to... deliver a pizza? That is an opening.

I started reading Infomocracy by Malka Older. Very political, which I like, but she starts by clumbsily explaining the micro-democracy concept by trickling info.

I'd quit, but I'm curious to know what the series is.

It might be hard to find the very first novel published using the FR setting. I think that was the Moonshae trilogy back in 1987. There are many FR novels and not all of them are very good or just good. There are some classics like the Dark Elf trilogy and the Avatar trilogy (to know the...
