This. More specifically, pick up the World of Darkness core book and the Vampire: The Requiem book for the vampire specific stuff. Buy d10s en masse, and have a wild, angsty good time.

Considering that WotC is generally willling to eratta things they think are broken with an actual eratta document, I've begun to think the math glitch is intentional, and the designers don't feel it needs to be fixed. I think that as you increase in level, you're intended to fight lower-level...

This argument has been going on since PHB2 was being previewed, and I've had the "priveledge" of seeing the debate, and in-game application of both arguments. I think this might actually be a question of optimization mentality vs. casual mentality. If you're a player that wants to optimize and...

Also, don't forget that a fighter can stop movement by connecting with an opportunity attack. That's always been my favorite way of earthbinding a flying baddie.

It's pretty much the same, as far as what you're listing. The rules are certainly cleaned up, and I agree with all the changes, but there is still a lot of DM prep time, and not much has been done to decrease turn length. It's very much worth picking up though. Paizo did a bang up job with...

I'm sure there's a steampunk supplement for Gurps somewhere back down the line. SJG's stuff is usually good for cross-game reference.

The response I had, and still have, is simply a request to define "homogeneous" for me so I can contribue to a logical discussion. I would like to know where the OP is coming from, and I'd like to make sure I understand his terminology.

This is the type of post that I look for when searching for dissenting opinions. Nagol, you have just expressed exactly what it is about the system that you don't like, but didn't disparage those who play the game and admit that the game isn't for you, but may be for other people. XP for you.

I don't understand how I've been anything but open minded. I really do want to know where the core of the homogeneous argument comes from, and I've yet to hear an argument that forms an actual argument and isn't just a buzzword. I haven't seen your arguments, and I'd like to have an actual...

This is something I'll have to disagree with you, unless I'm not understanding your statements. The powers and abilities of every class are extremely different, to the point that you can look at the effects of two given powers and have a really good idea as to what class they belong to without...

I'm sorry, but I'm going to need a bit of clarification on this. In what way to you see 4e's mechanics as being homogeneous, and how is this a bad thing?

Alright, I am now the proud owner of Legacy of Fire Chapter One: Howl of the Carrion King. I'm taking a little vacation this week, and I'm looking forward to digesting it. Already I'm impressed with the amount of content and production quality of the book. I hope Paizo did it's normal good...

Got mine 8/22. Great looking book, and very much worth the price.

I'm going to have to throw in my lot with this as well. If you play a fighter, than a wizard and still think the classes are the same, you're probably not paying attention. Every character using the same system for their abilities doesn't do the slightest thing to discourage versatility or a...

You guys make it difficult :) I'll probably pick up Legacy of Fire and the new one, if for no other reason than to see the differences between the two. I mean really, how different is Pathfinder from 3.5, after all?

Legacy of Fire sounds like it'll be the winner. Although I do love underdark games...

Alright all you Pathfinders, I'm a primarily 4e DM, but I picked up Pathfinder and I'm thinking about buying one of the adventure paths, both for plundering ideas and fun reading. What is the lowdown on the paths Paizo has done so far? Which one, in your opinions, is the best?

They really are an exceptionally powerful class if played right. A wizard going nova is a terror to behold.

I still have to disagree with the statement about controllers being ill-defined. Control is a very important part of just about any game, and follows the same abstract, albeit difficult to verbalize, principle. If you ask a Magic player, a Warmachine player, and a D&D player, each specializing...
