Thank you for these Morris, you rock! I wish they included XGtE and TCoE (which of course would mean DMSGuid published). I’ll check these in more detail.

Midgard Hero’s Handbook from Kobold Press. It’s like a 5E PH2. New races, classes, feats, spells and more.

The one key book I’m missing to help DM 5E is a solid NPC Codex, in a similar vain as the PF1 NPC Codex. I need a verity of NPC types of different levels and set of skills, items, spells, etc. In one LARGE volume so I don’t need to reference multiple books to find the NPC I’m looking for...

Sean K. Reynolds is awesomeness! I’ve met and chatted with him at both Paizo Con and GENCON. I wish him more success.

I am very happy that more people will be playing in the Lost Omens Campaign Setting, one of the best (if not THE best) settings to ever be created. Paizo’s overall Quality is high, most of their material feels like it comes from the same voice, is self consistent, gives plenty of hooks for...

This confuses me. I’m assuming this was agreed to by Paizo out of some mutual love/passion and not for significant financial reasons. No offense intended to Savage Worlds (I’ve never played it so have no opinion) but if Paizo wants to get the most $ out of their IP then more 5E conversions...

Jacob, Paizo especially with both its high quality and inclusiveness, has nothing to justify about its authors. They are , in the main, exceptional and in my opinion the best in the industry. I don’t believe there is any “response” you could give to that poster which would convince them of this...

It’s all about the lore! I think DMs would be surprised how easy and rich it is to run 5E games in Golarion with PF and PF2 adventures being converted on the fly. Mwangi was an excellent choice for the 1st 2E region book because there is so much existing lore from PF 1E adventures and books to...

Exactly. This is a fantasy game. Not an historical simulation.

Agreed. Comfort at the table is everything. A source book can culturally get everything right. But source books are just tools, used by the DM/GM. Respect and inclusion is in the hands of the game master (and fellow players).

You make some excellent points. It’s obvious in rereading my 1E PH and 1E DMG that the term race was picked arbitrarily to classify a playable “monster” or “humanoid”. Nowhere is there even a definition in those books of what Race means. It was an unfortunate choice because players newer to the...

What I appreciate about PF2 is that combats feel varied with plenty of meaningful choices for both players and GMs. And let’s not forget the superior campaign setting, which I prefer to use even when I run 5E.

THIS.

You are 100% right. I should have started a new thread, expressing my concern. We are such a small community, it’s important to know when to celebrate! I’m looking forward to learning more about Tasha’s. It has been far to long since we had an official expansion.

Tar and feathering OA for being racist (which has now been made popular to do by the podcast) would be like labeling and banning the TV show I Love Lucy for being sexist (because she is always answering to Ricky). Yet, if we did so, we would miss the reality that her character is a seminal...

Just finished listening. They have definitely matured a great deal in a short period of time. I definitely feel a lot better about them taking part in the Celebration. Their intentions are good. I still, however, feel strongly that painting OA with one modern brush is wrong. It deserves a...

I am not qualified to do a serious scholarly analysis, nor did I once imply I was. But more importantly, .... I’ll stop. Your mind is closed. You assume too much.

Ease up in the public shaming. You don’t know me. You don’t know my work for social justice and that I prefer Paizo’s adventures because as a company they do a pretty good job as both inclusive hiring and content. It makes me sad that you feel the very first Asian themed D&D supplement doesn’t...

Agreed. Added an unnecessary complexity. There’s a reason didn’t make it into 2nd Edition.

That’s reassuring to hear. Do you have a link?
