    3.5 high level woes and Paizo's hand in it.

    Pretty much yeah, but that's the nature of an RPG, its all in the hands of individual DM's. That's what a DM is supposed to do. Not every published adventure (of any level, in any form) will work with every gaming group or mix of PC's. Which leads to the main point, Paizo wasn't the problem...

    Forked Thread: Why Ravenloft and 4E May Not Mesh

    Pg 13 of Manual of the Planes: The World Axis cosmology only represents one of many possible planar arrangements for a D&D campaign. It’s the default setting, and all upcoming 4th Edition DUNGEONS & DRAGONS game products assume that the World Axis cosmology is the one you’re using in your...

    3.5 high level woes and Paizo's hand in it.

    No offense to anyone, but I wouldn't blame Paizo for this...I'd blame the DM's. As a DM you have to know what your players can handle, and what constitutes a balanced or tough encounter for them. (and when to recognize an impossible encounter). Those over the top, very maximized, near...

    The first three people to post their email addresses in this thread....

    I would have tried for this if it didn't take 5 minutes to load a page here on ENworld!

    Recommend A Holy Symbol For A God Of Knowledge

    How about a feather? Oh wait...nevermind. Shame the eye is already taken, that would have been perfect. I think the book/scroll idea is good, so too is the stylized ibis. Maybe a stylized Owl? A torch?

    Is 4e bringing new players to the game?

    I think the more important question is: Is 4E bringing in more players than are leaving? Also: Was 3E not bringing anyone new in at all anymore? Anytime a new edition comes out you'll have people jumping on board. Plus, I'm sure there were still new people coming into the game before 4E...

    WoTC March 2009 Editorial Calendar

    They can publish all the books they want, I just think their resources would be better spent on finishing up the classes and options we're missing instead of giving us multiple splat books on the classes we already have. I know "everything is core" for 4E, but I think something like the...

    Will 4E Eberron be as bad as FR?

    Sig line from Keith Baker: Keith Baker Eberron Designer I am NOT a 4E designer, and nothing I say on the subject should be considered official or even necessarily accurate! Warning! Any posts I make concerning Eberron are unofficial and could be contradicted in future material.

    Any word on the GSL?

    Much better. Now this is a liscense that can be used! Whew. Hard to believe it took this long to modify that pesky section 6! Nice to see some stuff from PH2 and MM2 added to the SRD.

    No, there just needs to be a DDI article to add more options to the Artificer!

    Will 4E Eberron be as bad as FR?

    I've never been a big fan of FR, but I can understand why fans of the setting would be upset with the changes that were made. Pretty drastic changes. I don't think they intend to go as far with Eberron, so it should come out much closer to its previous incarnation, but we'll see. Maybe they've...

    Any word on the GSL?

    All the hints and clues feel like smoke and mirrors don't they?

    WoTC March 2009 Editorial Calendar

    I guess I should clarify a bit too...I don't mind new options and powers, but the usual trend with splat books like that is power creep. It's almost as though coming up with new builds and so forth stretches the baseline so much that the new options always end up so much more powerful/desirable...

    WoTC March 2009 Editorial Calendar

    But there aren't any martial powered characters in PH2. Its Arcane, Divine, and Primal. Maybe the editorial meant to say Primal Power? I would hope they at least get all the basics out before they keep retreading over top of what we already have. I'd rather have PH 3 before MP2. I can live...

    Martial Power 2? Ugh. I know they were going to do a new PH, MM, and DM Guide every year, but do they really have to do multiples of EVERY book now?

    2000 monsters

    I think its a testament to the ease of monster design in this edition, but I wouldn't really qualify all those re-skinned and leveled creatures to be seperate monsters. Not really. If someone dumps a scoop of peas on my plate and tells me I have 300 vegetables on my plate, I still really only...

    Will the WOTC Gametable return or is it dead forever?

    It may be true that most software these days is late, buggy, etc., but that's no excuse not to demand better. Especially when we're promised something different. If we all just start shrugging our shoulders and lowering our expectations, what standards do those producing goods, services, etc...
