To be fair, when we only have 3 core books, and 2 adventure path books since August, I really can't blame the board for talking about the same stuff over and over given the extremely tiny amount of new information that we have gotten. It's either talk about that stuff (which inherently gives us...

Is there some reason they aren't dumping these all together? Surely they have the PDFs, why trickle them out as they do? It's stuff like this that annoys me about nintendo and their virtual console as well. Oh well, it's better than nothing I guess. You'd figure they would want to have all my...

The system is without a doubt bloated but like many others have said you clearly don't NEED to use or buy every book, they are simply options for the GM to use to flavor the campaign. Interestingly enough, if you look back pathfinder doesn't actually publish that many rule books per year. I...

I'll conceed that. I completely apologize. The pet stats being like PC stats HAVE only been for the past 15 or so years. My mistake.

It sounds like you have the mindset of D&D type of games where pets have largely the same complexity and builds of player characters. This is no so in Numenera. You are right, these pets aren't built like PCs and therefore don't have those pools. The defense roll is just like any other defense...

Either you don't have numenera or you didn't read carefully enough. Here's an excerpt from the book under beast master (which covers your summon monster stuff as well). It took me about 10 seconds to find. ""You and the GM must work out the details of your creature, and you’ll probably make...

Easily my most look forward to thing this year. Love the Strange and Numenera.

I don't necessarily play pathfinder, because I have moved onto other things but I still keep up with it supporting them. In the past few months I have sort of slacked off with the new books. Last book I got was Advanced class guide. I recently ordered the Strategy Guide, and of course Pathfinder...

I agree completely that you don't have to use them. The thing is though that many people DO like to use them. Clearly, because they are selling these splat books and people keep buying them. So I think many people want to embrace the entirety of the game. The bloat issue also occurs for new...

Just been trying to take in the information and process it. Pathfinder is so huge now. I'm really happy they decided to do about 4 big core books a year. Initially this was great but even now, the game is starting to bend at the foundations from the immense amount of STUFF in the game. This is...

It's annoying when my players strictly follow builds they find in theory crafting. What that says to me is that any story I put time an effort into will not affect their character at all because it is all planned out. I tend to like to craft my story to draw out emotions in other characters and...

Ah, I would have guessed otherwise since almost every book that I have ever seen published under OGL has that phrase. The part where I said you can't deny refers to the working of each phrase. One word is different, but otherwise they are pretty much the same. It's clear they wanted to use the...

Again, I get that I really do. The logical next step in the question is "Why aren't more companies and independent publishers writing for 5e and producing stuff?" It seems like any sort of license via OGL or GSL is completely worthless. There are only 2 real check points on making products it...

Right im not saying they DON'T have the right (which is why I wrote the "im not touching you" mentality) I know it's legal but really really skirting the line, you cant deny that "Worlds first RPG" comes awfully close to the "Worlds Greatest RPG" which the OGL required people to use, if I...

So they have the rights to put 5e and World's First Fantasy RPG while using the 5e rules? That does seem incredibly similar to the "game" children play when they stick their finger a millimeter infront of their sibling's face saying "Im not touching you, I'm not touching you". Very interesting...

It seems like it would be almost impossible to start at 20. You wouldn't know the ins and outs of your character, and the DM wouldn't know the possibilities of what everyone could do. I guess you COULD but I imagine 99% of the time it would be a terrible mess of a game for either the DM...

How are they doing this? Did Wizards put out a license? Are they dealing with wizards behind closed doors with deals?

I don't know what to expect. I definitely want them though, just because they haven't made good ones does not mean they shouldnt try. I'm not going set my self for dissapointment.

We all know Wizards it tight lipped and sometimes Mike or someone else may let something slip on twitter. Things like the updated realms etc. I like that. I really value company interaction with fans like this. Keep us in the loop about whats going on, what we might expect etc etc. Recently I...

Well... if you made the article and you can put *update* on the article (Which you clearly have already done to let people know the name changed). I suppose my request falls to you, the person who posts the article and can update it relatively easily. A shame I really had to spell that out given...
