IIRC He published it on DTRPG as the Dusk RPG Player's Guide and got it DMCA'ed for its use of MtG IP without permission. If you dig he might have put up his rough notes somewhere, but I'm pretty sure that's what became of the final book.

I know I'm a bit late to the party, but this thread seems neat, and it's not THAT stale. Ideally I would have seen it go in the opposite direction they went. Step farther away from being a sort of Disgaea-Inspired miniatures game, and move to a more diegetic Forgotten Realms TTRPG in the style...

This presumes you're familiar with the brand already. If I were to publish a game tomorrow and it was a perfect match to your tastes, if you saw no ads for it you just wouldn't know about it, because I wouldn't be a known brand.

Maybe it'll grow on me. And yeah, I knew that. Your blog (and his) were what got me to pick up the books after I read the shareware pdf on dtrpg. I thought it unlikely there were very many Alzrii running around in TTRPG space. :P

Most recently, GURPS Mysteries and GURPS Social Engineering. Before that Foundry + Baileywiki Extension + theRipper93 Extension. Before that, the books for Eclipse: The Codex Persona. Haven't figured out Foundry yet. I kindof regret the Eclipse magic book. Haven't had much use for it. But I...

I've made some friends from FB, but typically it's because of the built in messenger, rather than through the conversations. Something people use forums for less, though you do also have an inbox here. I still have FB, but it's for the FB groups and messenger. I actively purge doom from it.

My take: 1. Most of them took too long to add in mobile-friendly user interfaces. 2. Most casual mobile-phone internet-users want an app, not to log in through their web browser, even if it's basically the same thing. 3. And then when you have one platform you can reach everyone you know on...

The closest I've found to that are the custom feeds you can make on Bluesky. I have a few I've made myself that are TTRPG focused (and that people could follow), but it does take some knowhow to set them up. Still. Social media with your choice of algorithms you like is better than either a...

That seems likely. There's Matrix / Element. I don't know what features it's missing, but I've heard it's Discord-esque.

I've tried the 'demigods ruling over cities'. And it's FINE IMO, but I think these days I'd rather have more distant gods. In my upcoming game they're be much more removed than a typical D&D setup. No communing with them; no quickly fetching servants from them; no quickly fetching your dead...

I got into FR as a kid through the comic books and dos games, years before I ever played D&D. A miscellany of FR Novels mostly. Here are some of my favourites off the top of my head. Erevis Cale. Elminster in Myth Drannor. Scions of Arrabar. Counselors and Kings. The Last Mythal. Evermeet. I...

The people I encounter who read fantasy fiction these days, seem to mostly be reading not books, but webnovels. Often translated from Chinese. Some of them are pretty fun, but the genre is quite different than D&D. And, of course, I would say Anime, Videogames, and Movies are bigger influences...

If not something very close to the 3e FRCS, or a similar FRCS based on the structure of the PF1 Inner Sea World Guide - it would probably, like you, be an equivalent to Unearthed Arcana or Mongoose Games Designer's Companion (but you know, for current edition they're trying to sell). Something...

I rolled back to a heavily houseruled 3.x a few years back for when I d20 fantasy, both for the gameplay and the FR content which was excellent for that edition. So A D&D (but not current edition, and increasingly houseruled) is arguably probably my primary system, but I do quite like GURPS 4e...

An interesting thought. Especially if you find yourself hyped for some of the new stuff. I used to be "it" but then they changed what "it" was! (I bought D&D books for the Forgotten Realms content {though D&D wasn't my first TTRPG}) - When I picked up 5e it was because people had convinced me...

Much appreciated. Not what I was looking for, but an interesting retrospective from the devs of the system. D&D 3E/3.5 - Jonathan Tweet: Third Edition and Per-Day Spells "At that point, designers were still in simulation mode, and encounters that were “per-encounter” by fiat seemed too...

https://web.archive.org/web/20011019190018/http://www.wizards.com/dnd/main.asp?x=dnd/welcome,3 None of the articles I'm looking for seem to be there, sadly. Now I'm wondering where I read them. Maybe it was in Dragon. I think they were interviews with Monte Cook or Jonathan Tweet, or Skip...

I'm looking for old Design Diaries regarding the choices they made for D&D 3.0, in revising AD&D. I found a few old RPG Hour Chat log word documents on the Wayback Machine, but there were a lot more interviews I remember from back in the day. I'm particularly interested in the ones where they...

~Just In Case In the meantime I plan to just keep using the PRD / d20PFSRD / d20srd / PDFs for my actual game rule reference.

The bulk of the actual work was combing through the Pathfinder wiki looking for character and deity names to find and replace with generic things, such as replacing Nethys with "Magic God" in all instances across wherever it appeared in the 3300+ files. I'll take a stab at giving d20pfsrd a...
