    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...

    new mearls interview?

    See I'd be fine if a 3rd Party company handled the conversions of PF material to 5E or D&D Next. That way everyone wins. But if Paizo (and they've said that that they wouldn't do dual statted modules or books) starts supporting both, that means that they'll be putting less support into actual...

    D&D 5E (2014) 5E, The Edition Wars, and Shooting Ourselves in the Foot.

    This exactly. It's okay to constantly say that 3e was "broken" or "unplayable from the core rulebook" and things of that nature. Despite the fact that there are plenty of people STILL playing and enjoying 3E or Pathfinder. But start to talk about things that don't float your boat in 4e? Youre...

    Pathfinder 1E What's so good/bad about Pathfinder?

    What do I love about Pathfinder? I like that it's still basically the 3.5 framework that is highly customizable and usable with most of my huge library of 3.5 material. It's much easier to subtract what I dont want in my game than to add or build it myself. There are so many 3.5 subsystems that...

    Pathfinder 1E Will Paizo be the Good Guy? (humor)

    Being that this is EnWorld I'm not surprised at the fickleness and the desire to run back to the mothership at the slightest hint of hope. Me? I'm staying with Pathfinder and I think over on the Paizo boards there are plenty of people who feel the same way as I do.

    D&D 5E (2014) Has 5E Restored or Diminished Your Faith in WotC?

    Youre JUST realizing this? I realized this 4 years ago when 4E came out. Welcome to the club I guess?

    Rampant Anti-Groggism

    Yeah but we dont count because we dont like change and/or didnt drink the Kool-Aid. And apparently there were more of us than was initially thought otherwise we wouldn't be having this wonderful conversation about a new edition with something for all players of D&D.

    Rampant Anti-Groggism

    Wow. Pretty sure that when 4E came out and a whole bunch of us 3E players who had been spending crap loads of money on 3X material and 2E material before that and 1E and Basic material before that felt the same way that you do now. You want to know what the general consensus here at good ol...

    D&D 5E (2014) So why are you buying 5th edition?

    Unless it's made of pure AWESOME I wont even be purchasing 5E sight unseen. I will play in someone's game and if the experience is slightly more than MEH then no sale. If I come away with the feeling that I'll be abe to use all of my 3.5 material, my 1E modules and my Pathfinder stuff with...

    I don't DM 4th edition, but when I do

    As am I. I just thing our level of granularity is different. Before I start running a game I give the players several options because usually when I ask "Is there any thing you guys have in mind that you'd like me to run?" I usually get "Whatever you want is fine" That's from several different...
