Yes, it does. --Erik

Interesting. I should have checked that before I posted. I do think the Ravenloft boxed set was obviously art directed. Vampire still had extremely interesting art, but I stand corrected on the timeline. --Erik

Although the first Vampire book(s) look amateurish by today's standards, it had VERY solid art direction and simply _looked_ better than the 2e AD&D stuff being published at the time. There was a ROSE on the cover and full-page, brilliant black and white pieces from Tim Bradstreet that blew the...

We are expecting the second print run to arrive in the office next week, and from there it will likely be 2-3 weeks before it gets to stores, and shortly thereafter until Amazon and other vendors will fill the order. Sorry about the delay! Everyone (including us) got completely slammed and...

I have seen lots of credible evidence that suggests rather emphatically that the bulk of RPG players do _not_ make use of PDFs. But I've also seen credible evidence that there are a lot more RPG players buying PDFs than there were three years ago. And I think a huge percentage of PDF...

I am certainly no expert on the comic side of the business (I basically stopped buying them altogether about 6 years ago), but my impression is that the business has actually improved considerably in the last few years. Also, the rise in popularity of trade paperback collections--and especially...

The playtest will definitely begin in November. --Erik Mona Publisher Paizo Publishing

Colin McComb recently wrote an outer planes Pathfinder Module entitled "Beyond the Vault of Souls". It's pretty awesome. --Erik

I haven't listened to the original podcast, but I can't really agree with Jim's hypothesis as you recount it. First of all, the word renaissance means "re-birth," so tracking a "renaissance" all the way back to the beginning of the hobby doesn't make sense from a semantic point of view. I think...

I'm going to go with "an open 4th edition" and clarify by saying "a year and a half ago".

I had a chance to handle the box for this monster at last weekend's Alliance/Diamond Retailer Summit in Baltimore. It is a behemoth. Can't wait to see how it sells. I imagine it will do just fine.

Communism was a red herring.

Fat layabouts, mostly.

I saw Roger at at least two Gen Cons after 2000, but he was always attending with his son, who as I recall was into Magic and other CCGs. I know Roger was very interested in model rocketry for a time, and was spending a lot of his "hobby" energy there as recently as a few years ago. --Erik

Then again, as fantasy gamers, we do love our monsters. :) --Erik

Good idea! --Erik

Why not just have her give the Thieves Guild character the quest as a prerequisite of advancing a rank in the guild? They could set up something where the PC is "fired" from the guild, thus avoiding a guild war. Alternately, you could drop the pretense than anyone is worried about this and just...

We'll see. --Erik

We hope to release three iPhone apps in the next couple of months. Almost all of the programming is done, and we're basically waiting for the paperwork at Apple to clear at this point. If those prove to be profitable, we'll look at doing more and expanding to other mobile platforms. I was...

Excellent stuff. I like that the fighter is the actual dude from the rot grub illustration in MM1. --Erik
