    Grade the Pathfinder 2E Game System

    😆 This is what PF2 players keep telling me. And you might be right. The thing is though, reading through class feat often feels underwhelming. It's the same thing with the "every +1 counts"-paradigm in PF2. It just didn't fired us up. Now it's totally a "us" thing, I'm not saying PF2 is a bad...

    Yeah - forgot that one. I use the Monster Menagerie for 5e. And it's such a good monster book.

    Grade the Pathfinder 2E Game System

    Tried it. Played Quest of the Frozen Flame (or what it is called). Wasn't impressed. Class abilities was disappointing and not very interesting. I remember reading something like as a Barbarian I could get a class feat that allowed to be intimidating when raging. Whaaaat? Isn't a raging...

    D&D 4E Ben Riggs' "What the Heck Happened with 4th Edition?" seminar at Gen Con 2023

    I can't really see what's wrong in any way with that review. It has the brashness of being young in the late 90s.

    D&D 4E Ben Riggs' "What the Heck Happened with 4th Edition?" seminar at Gen Con 2023

    I miss Mike being part of D&D actually. I think he had some good ideas in both 4e and 5e. What is he even working on now? Still at WotC?

    Oh my god I love this. Thanks @Alzrius

    Kickstarter The Jordenheim Viking RPG comes to D&D 5E

    I'm confused. You write D&D 3.5, but the page is for a 5e product. I assume you mean 5e? Also a typo on your page: it should be "3rd" and not "3nd" in "Core Rule Book 3nd Edition"

    D&D 3.x 20th level possibly official WotC pregens

    This is what I love about 3.5; all this stuff I didn't know was out there some where. Long and forgotten by most. Also, it's annoying that WotC doesn't put more value in all this past work. Obviously they want to sell what's current, but it would be nice if - as a service to the community - they...

    D&D 4E Ben Riggs' "What the Heck Happened with 4th Edition?" seminar at Gen Con 2023

    It has been decided it is mostly good - but with some issues (most of which got ironed out late in the version). 😇

    D&D 4E Ben Riggs' "What the Heck Happened with 4th Edition?" seminar at Gen Con 2023

    When this comes up, I'm reminded of this twitter thread:

    WotC Hasbro CEO Chris Cox, "I would say that the underlying thesis of our D&D business is all about digital,”

    Generally agree with this. Though I'm a bit more positive for the adventures 😃 But I agree that some of the latter books has some rough ones in between. Except Ravenloft that was great. But I feel - and I might be wrong - but at some point they started doing books by committee and the results...

    WotC Hasbro CEO Chris Cox, "I would say that the underlying thesis of our D&D business is all about digital,”

    We definitely liked HotDQ better than RoT. Except for the last scene in RoT. That. Was. One. Epic. Battle. Really great. Anyway, I don't know. Sometimes it feels like people expect a 260-page adventure to be perfect for all kind of groups and playstyles. I have yet to see an adventure...

    WotC Hasbro CEO Chris Cox, "I would say that the underlying thesis of our D&D business is all about digital,”

    I get the feeling that HotDQ's bad reputation is mainly found online. "Uhhh Justin Alexander writes a review about how bad it is, that must be true"-kind of thing. I would wager if a poll was made amongst those who actually played it, it would rate quite well. It's also still on the best...

    Pathfinder 1E Are people still playing Pathfinder 1e?

    Are you running Carrion Crown in PF2 or was that in PF1? So you're considering going back to PF1? I'm currently running Giantslayer in 5e - and want to run either Reign of Winter or Curse of the Crimson Throne. But I'll probably do that in PF1. I like 5e good enough. Especially some of 3pp...

    WotC WotC: 'Artists Must Refrain From Using AI Art Generation'

    I sympathize with your sentiment. But is this really true? Was it bad that hard cruel manual labor-based jobs were taken over by machines? I don't think the answer is so simple. ChatGPT-4 and other coming LLM-bases software systems will pretty much make knowledge-based jobs obsolete in 20-50...

    WotC WotC: 'Artists Must Refrain From Using AI Art Generation'

    Yup - this is where I'm at as well. I'm an iOS-developer during my day job, and I'm also going back to the basics. In 10 years the IT-landscape will look vastly different.

    WotC WotC: 'Artists Must Refrain From Using AI Art Generation'

    In 5 years time nobody would be able to see the differences. Foolish to think otherwise. It would be wise to be adaptable instead. Also this happened to blue color workers a long time ago. Don’t think it wouldn’t happen for white collar workers.

    Did they just nerf full casters by removing flat modifier bonuses on cantrips?
