I will also note that in at least the case with FATE and Alien, they both had a big push for VTT options in the last few months, making them accessible to the online gaming crowd when most needed. That probably helped a bit, too. Cyberpunk Red doesn't surprise me though because for one shining...

This is an impressive new headcannon link between the two film franchises...I love it!

Having recently rewatched 2001 for the first time in ages I can see the connection. It's existential horror tinged with a futurist's optimism. Alien is just existential horror with little to no optimism.....but both movies have a style and feel that is complimentary in distinct ways. (EDIT with...

Death in Space is a no-brainer for me to back...and now it is backed! Side note: Tales of the Smoking Wyrm #3 is wrapping up in four days, DCC fans should take note.

Gah! Double post!

For the record I've rather enjoyed reading through this book, several of the modules stand out to me (but haven't run any yet so hard to comment on their actual versatility.) The missing alignment thing is a mild disappointment; I consider it a useful metric to help the DM but also admit it's...

I have friends who rely heavily on audiobooks. Although I've listened to them occasionally on long trips I actually tend to tune out audiobooks and lose track quickly, or find I am annoyed with the style or tone of the reader, and as a result just can't get anything out of them. I do much better...

I get more reading done in the Summer because I go outside with a good book while the rest of the clan is fishing or whatever. But then I get more reading done in the winter when everyone's shut in and it's cold out so I have a book to read in front of the fireplace. The real contest for my time...

It would take about 8-9 hours to finish 500 pages for me, but with the full time schedule and family commitments I have I'd manage about 1 hour a night over 8-9 days to plow through it, which is pretty much my standard speed (Dad's reading hour is around 10-11ish each night).

For what it's worth, the top reason I like PF2E as a GM is because its monster statblock design is eerily similar to 4E's method of monster design, which I loved.

My understanding is it has all errata through around October/November of last year as it was reprinted and released mid December. I am not sure where the stuff you refer to falls in to the mix, but if that was a change made after December then its probably not in there. This link might help...

The Pocket Edition of the Core Rules is the 2nd printing and has the first round of errata in it, yes. PF2E does not need an Essentials edition. That was a fairly unique scenario with 4E which was a hard fix for a system that uniquely commanded it.

This is why I also intensely disliked that movie (plus the overly long, panic-inducing fight scenes).

My own take: I personally was very in to Marvel in the early eighties then jumped ship largely to DC in the mid to late eighties, and embraced the Image comics movement of the early nineties before getting out of comics until around 2012 when I jumped back in feet first and have been avidly...

As a slight contrast, I have always assumed that both Gotham and Metropolis are just two different versions of New York, or maybe one is Boston and the other is New York (which is which is up for discussion), but this chiefly because I live in the southwest and have never visited New York, so...

I voted sandbox, but then realized the poll is confusing two options that are not related to one another. Sandbox can just mean you have a layout of encounters and locations that can be encountered in any order, but it doesn't prevent the GM from scaling those encounters to work for the party...

Thanks for the tip! Done.

I loved Everway in the nineties, it was a very influencing game for me and still stands out as some of the best visual imagery in a game I've ever seen. Would love to back this, wish I had known about the KS sooner, could have planned accordingly (got too many other KSs being backed, not made of...

I run hexloration campaigns in PF2E per GMG rules pretty consistently, but what I do with the encounter tables is create slightly more elaborate ones that are based on party level. So a chart for CL 0-2, CL 3-4, CL 5-6, CL 7-8, CL 9-10 etc. Then, when I check which chart to roll on for the...

My group on Wednesday nights plays 4 hour sessions on Roll20, with a typical session having 2-5 encounters (some of which end up in fights), and on the combat heavy nights we average about 30-45 minutes per combat. I tend to favor tougher encounters when they do happen. This is consistent across...
