Wife and I are huge FF fans, so will be certainly picking this up once the physical release is out. Also, for anyone interested, rules are free here! Had to look this one up. Artwork looks cozy! What exactly put you off?

I have yet to really give it a good read unfortunately... From skimming through it though, looks solid and a lot of fun. I see quite a few "video game-isms", like skill-trees and burning Focus Points to do crazy martial techniques, like swinging your sword to release a gigantic blast...

Well this looks too freakin' cool! Thanks @darjr and thanks @Lidgar for the convenient synopsis. Art is done by Hodag; looks really familiar... Do you know other projects he's been on? CS break?

Correct, Palm Desert, CA! And they used to be called "Sons of Kyuss" just like the monster.

Really is the best feeling as a GM. My favorite is seeing a "When's the next game?" text.

Loved it, but I like everything Eggers has put out, so no surprise there. Still deciding what Ellen's motivation was at the end. I really like this take from Snorkenhaufer on r/roborteggers:

As soon as I read that I thought it was too good to not be a band name. It is, in fact, a band name. :LOL:

@Warpiglet-7 Your reasoning looks solid to me! And finally decided to grab a hardback myself despite already owning the PDF. My poor bookshelf...

Share!

+1 for @prabe's Taste of home suggestion. A company I recently just discovered is Gooseberry Patch. They have quite the lineup of humble and inexpensive recipe books like this one. One example they give: That said, I've been pretty impressed with my Walmart's offerings of late. It really...

Just the four "base" classes, so f,w,c, and t. It was around $80. Which is why I thought the price decrease was worth posting here about in case that was the only factor holding someone back.

@Gus L Was looking over old messages from Greg and saw this: So you have that to look forward to!

Looks like it to me. Also noticed when multiclassing, you take the least desirable trait of the two classes. So a Fighter/Magic-User still couldn't wear armor. Major nerf to the old rules.

It's seemingly tiny alterations like these that significantly impact the game that are hard to describe to others. Especially since there isn't Weapon Masterty (another rule I'm not a fan of) and no Damage VS Large catagory (where swords excelled at too), so whatever cool magic weapon you find...

Not to mention the auto-parry multiple times per combat! Hopefully they're balanced out with the high attribute requirements, lower To-Hit bonus, and being forced to use a staff... I think my only other reservation is To-Hit bonuses stopping at Lv 10, but I'm not familiar with high level play...

Yeah, sorry. Looking it over now I can see how it's kind of over the top. That's something I can work on in the future for sure, especially when it comes to using the word "really" (will try and keep it to a minimum here). I was surprised by what Greg came out with though. I knew he wrote well...

You can try the Dragonsfoot thread he started. Not sure how often he checks it. Out of curiosity, what are your questions? Oh, if about "skill checks", yes, up to the DM. If an action's resolution is important and you're unsure of what the outcome would be, I'd personally, I'd just steal...

@Gus L Also something else to consider, creators that have their own system have a firm foundation to base their other products on. No worries about another creator deciding to go in a completely different direction, quitting the hobby, or making public statements you don't agree with. In...

Really cool write up, thanks for sharing. Like many others, I only have Barrowmaze, so any insight on his other products is very welcome. I own and have read just about every clone on the market and think Dragonslayer's art justifies it's existence alone. For those that like AD&D over B/X...

Thankfully, my "hardcore" group has moved to PF2R and really liking the tactics, caring about gold, and the complex builds that can be made. We will probably never go back to 5E (maybe LevelUp though). Also, appreciate that there is no randomness to character creation. That put's everyone on...
