Maybe Lisa Stevens at Paizo would look at purchasing White Wolf? That would be an interesting turn of events.

This seems to be a recurring theme with these huge money Kickstarters: It all starts out with dreams and promises, but the day to day realities of running a sustainable game company seems to be the thing that trips them all up. Sounds like we need a Kickstarter to pair good business managers...

Pathfinder 2nd Edition. Paizo Publishing.

Um, re-read the second sheet. She has cantrips, like always. Fire ray is a domain power which even in PF1 is only available a set number of times per day, usually based on Wisdom for clerics. There's very little change there.

I'm not sure anyone has pointed this out yet, but this is a playtest. It's supposed to elicit comments like this, so the devs can see who salutes whatever flag they fly.

What is the character arc for Drizzt? How has the character changed over its many stories? I remember reading the novels and thinking, "I like everything about this novel except this drow, who never seems to change or grow." Was I right? Or is there something I didn't see?

Some of the pushback comes from PFS, where goblins have been only available via hard to get boons, usually charity ones that people spent a lot of money on. There are complaints that this makes their spend invalid. It's nonsense to me, since any money spent on a charity is good, even if the...

I think ancestry is an improvement over race and I expect WotC will adopt something similar in their next iteration of D&D, for the simple fact that companies like Hasbro and Paizo realize that being insensitive to the concerns of people leads to excluding large swathes of them from becoming...

Well step right up, because they DO have a softcover version for $29.99! https://secure.paizo.com/pathfinderplaytest/preorder

I bought the original run of these and really liked the 'idea' of them - but in reality, what a pain in the butt if you don't DM at the same place as you live. You set up a great scene, then you have to disassemble it and take it to the place where you play and then reassemble it. It's a...

Hey, I only know these ten guys, so they're my top ten! seems to be the reasoning behind that list. Lovecraft, Poe, Ray Bradbury, Neil Gaiman, JK Rowling, are just a few who should at least merit mention. That's the problem with these 'top 10' style lists - they just reflect the slice of the...

The mood in America (at least) has become very Zero-Sum over the last few years. If you like THIS, then you must hate THAT. And if I like THAT, then you must hate ME. I think it started in gaming over the 3rd edition - 4e split, when Edition Warriors became the loudest voice in the playground...

Which sounds great, except the general strength of the Forgotten Realms is its history. Trying to 'kitchen sink' it means you have to ignore much of that history, or incorporate it all, and I'm not sure which idea is more problematic. Why not build their own generic new setting and make that...

Growing the team is great, but I wish Wizards would focus more on creating new properties instead of just updating old ones. Yes, I know, they have a built in fan base and all, but still, the only way for 5th edition to remain viable long-term is to grow that fanbase and a new setting would...

I love threads like this, because it allows me to add names to a list I keep of people whose opinions I can safely classify as worthy of no consideration at all. If we don't talk about the stupid, terrible things that people do and why they're unacceptable, then we strengthen those who act like...

Is shake-up really the right term to use? It's not a controversial move, no one was fired, there was no top-down reorganization. A long time employee moved on, according to him in a friendly, amicable fashion. This isn't the annual WotC firings or something sinister; it's a normal part of...

Why don't we just play a Fantasy Flight roleplaying game and roll 73 types of dice and consult the oracle as to what they mean?

D&D Sixth Edition!
