I think that what you experience is somewhat true, but not always. I would say that what is more true in my experience is that DMs have preferred publishers. Once you can get a DM to look at a certain publisher (or line of products) you have more success within the publisher or line. For...

Sure, why not? If they fit the right context ... But what's wrong with hound archons? I like hound archons much like I like hellboy. They were just cool. The change for changes sake is again what really cheeses me off. I don't havea problem with fire based angelic criters. Ialso don't have...

New option: Everyone can heal to some point, so now fighting will be less fun because there is less risk. New option: When my attack works with everything I'm really just a fighter in disguise. Eventually the universitality will get boring. [Just look how boredpeople got with the fighter in 3e]

Thank you for being understanding! I don't know who else will take advantage of it, but you can at least count me in the number. Thanks to this most recent sale, I can now claim to own all Dreamscarred Press' products except the racial ones. I don't use the races as printed in the XPH, so I...

You aren't the only person experiencing this problem. I've spoken with Bacris in another thread about missing Dreamscarred Press' sales because I couldn't get onto RPGNow or DriveThru RPG. Even the ENWORLD LINKS haven't worked. Bacris said that he's heard from a bunch of people experiencing...

Wow, that's really weird - but thanks for the update Alzrius. I just tried again, and I can't get anything but a screen saying that they are sorry but they are doing a database update. I even tried to go in through ENWorld's branch and I get the error. I even tried go in through RPGNow's...

I don't come because I'm a gamer. I came because I wanted to play PbP 3.5.

Is this common? I think it is a brilliant concept at first glance, and am surprised that I've never heard of it before this very moment. I realize that it doesn't completely even the score if a player is willing to play with a stat of 6, but it sure helps even the field in the direction of the...

Bacris, Any idea how long RPGnow is going to be down doing a database update? I've got about 10 of your products I'd like to buy before Monday Night [EST]. I'm headed out of town and I'd rather not miss both of your recent sales! I'm already grumpy (at myself) at not taking advantage of your...

IDHMBWM, but if this is the correct wording you can throw me into the camp of the feat adding to damage against undead. The spell channels positive energy, so the question is if the feat increases the amount of energy drawn upon by the spell or if the feat gives someother means to heal. I...

What crap? :D I bought with a very keen eye. I read a rulebook twice (usually) at my local Barnes and Nobles before making any purchase. I don't havea FLGS, so Barnes and Nobles has to do. I was very critical about editing errors and game rules in all the books I bought. As a result, I...

Actually, with Point Buy ability mods are a distinct advantage. Say, for example, you want to create a character with good DEX and poor STR. And, let's say a 32 point buy. The other stats will be vanilla just for the sake of keeping the argument focused: No modifier Human: 08 STR - 0 points...

I don't see any reason why not, so long as you take the feat that is the prerequisite first and you meet all the prerequisites for both feats. When leveling, there is "sort-of" order about how to select things, but with feats are chosen at a particular place within that order. When it comes...

What about playing a warlock with the eldritch spear? You can do a fair amount of damage from a very nice range. So long as you stay a fair amount away from your enemies, you can have some fun. Being a warlock, you can use your UMD to have extra magical fun with wands and the like. As a...

Do you allow psionics in your games? If so, have you ever looked at Dreamscarred Press' work? They have a marksman class that adds some nice stuff to characters with a ranged focus. Grranted ... if the crossbowmen are all low level there is nothing that you can do to make the players...

If this happens, I will convert - so long as the algorithms work and make a non-predictable AI. I don't care what edition it is, I will convert. Until then, I'm honestly happy with 3.x. Now, back to the original question. The OP really answers the question in the denial of the answer...

And ... as someone who is now 32, I can honestly say that I see the world much differently than a decade ago. Neither age is totally bad (or perfect, either) - just completely different! Forty may be old to you, but I occasionally see 70 year olds playing their Wii. Age does not force people...

I wish you luck! It sounds like an interesting proposition. However, as a player I think I would either need to have trusted the DM for a long time or I would be extremely suspicious all the time. Knowing as a player that all the character knows about the world may or may not be completely...

If so, I hope you figure it out before May! :D But, I do know what you mean. I all but quit the boards when 4e was announced. Not that I wanted to hate 4e ... I just like the version of 3.x that I play. [Well, that and all the yelling between 4e fanboys and 4e haters made the mods grumpy...

Honestly? I think that all the change is good. If anything, it is good for business. The last thing the game needs is a new edition that is almost identical to the last edition. If that happened, people would gripe about having to buy a whole new set of rulebooks just to get the majority of...
