    Adventure paths suck (for homebrewers). How to improve their utility?

    I'm no longer a homebrewing GM. Havent been one for about 5 years now. I subscribed to Dungeon right just before Age of Worms and have every issue up until the end of it's run. When Paizo went Pathfinder with their AP's I became a subscriber and have been one ever since. The reason that I'm...

    Why did you stay with an earlier edition?

    No option for Pathfinder in the poll. I didn't switch because I didn't care for the new edition (4E). Tried it, played it, ran it and didn't like it.

    Pathfinder 1E World of Golarion going Lovecraft too much?

    Yeah his is how I see it. I know almost nothing about the Mythos. The little bit I do know I've gleaned from whatever influences have been put into Pathfinder and other material. I also have a particular mindset about Horror. If youre able to fight back against "horror" and possibly win? Then...

    [io9] 10 of the most awesome sword fight scenes

    Wow just took a look at that list and wow. No mention of The Adventures of Robin Hood (1938). No mention of Scaramouche. No mention of Three Musketeers (1973). No mention of The Mask of Zorro (1998). If the gal is going to mention BS sword fights like the one in Raiders (which technically...

    For my money that IS the best sword fight ever committed to film.

    Are you happy with your current game/edition?

    I'm happy with my game of choice which is Pathfinder. D&D Next will have to be phenomenal for me to even pick up the core rules much less switch over to as my main system.

    Review of Adventure-a-Week.com & Crypt of the Sun Lord (free module!)

    Yeah that's what I was wondering. One of the main things that a lot of the 4E people were saying early on was how easy it was to convert adventuress from ANY edition to 4E. I mean I didn't agree with that statement at all but apparently there were alot of people doing it.

    Blacks in Gaming (Hyperlink)

    So without addressing the not so subtle "people who whine about racism are whiners" tone of some of the responses here in this thread or the many times that I've run into posters who for whatever reasons really dont like black or brown people in general, I should what completely disavow my...

    Blacks in Gaming (Hyperlink)

    You know having pretty much consistently run into white male gamers on many different boards (HERO GAMES boards, RPG.net and on occaision HERE) who have a very narrow and decidedly not positive view of black and brown people in relation to RPG's I'm gonna stand by what I said. You may see it...

    Blacks in Gaming (Hyperlink)

    LOL. REALLY? And where are these black artists who draw/paint supposed to come from? The massive pool of black people who are into the inclusive world of RPG's? People on these boards and others have talked ad nauseum about how art in RPG's is important and having images that are inclusive is...

    Blacks in Gaming (Hyperlink)

    One of things I liked about the WOTC 3E era as a whole was that the iconics we'rent just another group of white d00ds adventuring. Amber (?) the monk and Redgar (who was really kind of racially indescribable) made a big diference in how I perceived D&D recently. Pathfinder has definitely...

    Blacks in Gaming (Hyperlink)

    Re: Howard as a racist. It's one thing to not have ANY black characters in your book (tolkien) and another thing completely to include them and then go out of your way to portray them as less than and devalued as sentient beings. In Howard's stories you get a lot of the latter. It's real...

    Ashamed of being a Gamer?

    Am I ashamed at being a gamer? *looks down at the Blacks in Gaming Thread* *walks away*

    New Marvel RPG?

    EDIT; Ninja'd by...well EVERYONE. Also see Perez's NEW TEEN TITANS or Christos Gage's AVENGERS ACADEMY. Or honestly any legacy hero who adopts the mantle of their predecessor. Wally West, Kyle Rainer or Bart Allen. Or Jean Grey before Phoenix compared to after Phoenix. Wolverine before...

    Pathfinder 1E Pathfinder Still #1

    Here's the thing, it doesnt matter if Pathfinder is #1. Right now and for the past few months or so you've had people coming out of the woodwork to devalue Pathfinder's standing on that chart. These are the same people who had no issue with WOTC's standing on that list prior to Pathfinder...

    Confirming crits, good idea, bad idea, or worst idea ever

    Dont really care about 5E much but I too never got the whole confirmation roll thing and promptly excised it from both my 3.5 game and then my Pathfinder one. Having to confirm just sucks all of the air out of the room after what should be a awesome moment.

    D&D 5E (2014) Who really IS the target audience of D&D Next?

    Seriously. It's amazing that people dont understand this at this point in the game. If 4E had good APs that would be great for 4E players. But if you're not a fan of 4E then what does it matter how great the AP is?

    new mearls interview?

    I didn't even NOTICE that. And the only reason that it is probably CAPPED is because I probably misspelled it, realized my mistake and changed it accidentally hitting the shift key while doing it. True. I hope that's not the case though. Too many small companies tend to grow too big too fast...

    D&D 5E (2014) Who really IS the target audience of D&D Next?

    Well, I've been playing RPG's for a long time. I have an entire bookshelf and and about 8gb of RPG materials. I've thrown away/ donated/ given away more RPG books annd materials than that one book shelf of material that I now own. I have a fair amount of mini's both metal and pre-painted...

    new mearls interview?

    This is true. In fact I pretty sure Lisa Stevens and EriK Mona have said on more than one occasion that Paizo as a company are going to have only so many employees on the payroll and they might be close to that upper limit now. I want to see Paizo do well but I also dont want them to get to...
