I'd suspect in addition to all of these, TSR's lawsuits against Gary Gygax's attempted successor companies and products (Dangerous Journeys, Lejendary Adventures) aggravated the issues. I believe the Mayfair Games/Role Aids lawsuit was under Williams's leadership as well.

There were a few panels from Paizocon (at least one used to be on YouTube) called "Secrets of TSR", which had a whole bunch of TSR Alums who worked in the main office talking about the work environment and how, for example, they had try to steal time to playtest product off the clock, because...

Also, if you're looking a way to get through some of these on your commute, a lot of the Forgotten Realms books are available from Audible, though they are something of a mixed bag. The Drizzt Do'Urden books are generally solid, whereas stuff like Darkwalker on Moonshae is... less so (Darkwalker...

I too am interested to see how the card game goes. ;):)

I suspect that someone might be more inclined to try to strip copyright for a campaign setting than the game as a whole - Dragonlance, Greyhawk, or the Forgotten Realms.

Does this mean Arbys and ENWorld will be collaborating next?

The problem I've had with PDFs is finding the right reader for a tablet - one that lets me browse my PDF library while also allowing me to work with a PDFs table of contents so I can more easily skim through information (like going from the map of a dungeon to the write-up of a particular room)...

Minor aside, but I suspect that if we get a ($Planeswalkers) Guide to the Multi-Verse, I'm willing to guess they'll go with Karn.

Is Dragon+ at all available in a PDF or HTML version? I'm hesitant to use the app as the last time I used the app (admittedly a year or so ago), it bricked my phone.

That is awesome. My hope is that around the time the Amazon LotR series comes out and the general public (or people who sell things to the general public) starts thinking about Lord of the Rings again, this gets picked up by Target (or it even gets picked up by Target before that).

That's kind of an unreasonable comparison - that's equivalent to saying that your online first person shooter is not succeeding and can never be successful because it's not doing as well as Fortnite.

The Decipher license was hamstrung by (IIRC) being limited to the material contained in the films and the first three books. The Cubicle 7 license came around after most bookstores stopped carrying RPGs, which, if you want to improve visibility to expand the market (before the existence of RPG...

The thing is about Gygax and Arneson, going from Playing At The World, is that Arneson, from the sounds of things, really didn't have reproducible, standard rules. He had a whole bunch of notes that he could make heads or tails of, and which Gygax was able to organize, edit, and polish while...

Over the next 5 years, one adventure and one setting & rules book for 5 settings, opening each setting up on DM's Guild in the process. In no particular order. 1) Birthright (with the setting book having kingdom management rules) 2) Spelljammer (with a more expanded setting) 3) Dark Sun...

I check my FLGS when I can... but my two closest FLGSs closed (Ancient Wonders and Legend of Gamers), and between going to the game store and getting my comics from my FLCS (a different store), those two stops can take what was an hour of driving and turn it into 3-4 hours, depending on which...

Have you checked Target?

Has Paizo said if the Gamemastery guide will have guidelines for creating NPCs and advice on putting together stat blocks?

Not a fan of the Funko Pop aesthetic - I more prefer the Nendoroid style as well (along with the fact that the figures let you customize their appearance - something you can't do with Funko Pops).

I have not had the opportunity to run this kind of dungeon yet, but there is something like this in one of the novels in the Martha Wells Books of the Raksura series.

That one is nicer, but I would like more room to write down what feats do.
