You're right, and I will edit the post to make it more appropriate.

When are people going to stop doing this crap? Who are you, frikking Fallout Boy?

I've always said it like, "a beer."

Do people even read these articles?

It sounds really ripe for adventure, but now I really want to know more about the "disastrous joining of two worlds."

I have a few thoughts on this subject and the discussion it spawned. First, I'm a little surprised no one has surmised that we might first see official Bards in the FR players' guide. Bards are a pretty big part of FR (Harpers, anyone?), and if we're getting a whole players' book for FR, I'd...

Sounds like a player problem to me.

I disagree. First of all, those roles have always been there, the whole, "infantry, artillery, special forces, medics" paradigm. Also, by recognizing these roles and building each class to excel at one, the game provides more freedom for role-playing. You can play whatever you want, safe in...

Yeah, Kind of, sort of. Just about every campaign setting has been PoL to some extent or another, depending on how you look at it. It's about the feel, which is supposed to be one of mystery and high adventure.

Careful, Dude; WoW has professions that level independently of class. ;)

Even the Dwarf chicks are sexy over here.

I think there's a couple of misconceptions about PoL getting bandied about. First of all, it isn't a setting. It's a very loose framework with which to build a setting. Stop calling PoL a setting. Second, there's nothing about PoL that prohibits nations, kingdoms and the like. They're just...

Not exactly. In its most simplistic form, the light is good, and the darkness is evil, but this is just the most basic, comic booky, black and white interpretation, and it only has to be this simplistic if you want it to be. At its core, PoL is a world where vast regions are unexplored or ill...

Does it now? Do you mean that 4E lets heroes face encounters whenever they want? Is this a sideways attack against encounter based resource management? You're not just conveniently forgetting that there are still per day resources that must be regained along with all the other factors that...

And dragons not having access to Alarm?

Or, you just can't think of a way that is does make sense. You keep ignoring the fact that there aren't just epic forces for good, there are epic forces for evil, and that the world of PoL doesn't contain a finite amount of either.

Pol isn't a frikking racewar. It's a battle between the forces of civilization, "good," and the forces of darkness, "evil." Just because Good and Evil aren't "forces" anymore and more like the metaphysical concepts of good and evil in the real world doesn't make PoL any less about the struggle...

Thinking about it a little more, I think it means any decent DM can think of a reason why the world remains PoL even with epic heroes out to save the day.

Are we talking about interspecies conflict now? I thought we were talking about good and evil. Homo sapiens' dominance hasn't done anything to stop the development of evil. If anything, it's promoted the spread of evil as much or more than it's promoted the spread of good. Also, I'd say good...

Dark Sun isn't points of light?!?
