I went out for beers and eats with a good friend of mine who is our regular group's other GM and who will be playing this game. Talking about what kind of frame we wanted, he expressed an interest of playing in a grounded world. Rather than trying to find ways to reskin or nerf a good portion of...

This question is NOT aimed at new entrants into the hobby. of course those people need rules and adventures and stuff. But the vast majority of ENWorlders are NOT new entrants into the hobby. They have been playing RPGs for years, probably decades. They own games, probably multiples systems...

Oh damn. Thanks for highlighting this.

I don't like JRPGs as a rule, though recently I bought Octopath Traveler 2 based on how much Mortismal Gaming loved it (and I have pretty much never disagreed with with his takes). I have not yet loaded it up. And I guess Expedition 33 is technically a JRPG, and I mean to get to that.

We literally know nothing about the gameplay. At all. Folks need to take a step back. Action adventure games have RPG elements all the time: Arkham, Tomb Raider, Horizon, etc. Each one of those is a 3rd person action game with talent trees and upgrades. There is no reason this game won't have...

That isn't really an internet problem so much as a Social media problem. Or, as I like to call it, The Great Filter.

Unfortunately, I have never played a FF game so I cannot be certain. I will say that the general vibe from the art I just googled seems like it would work with some reskinning.

Point of Order: Eberron is not Steampunk. It is magitech/aetherpunk.

Maybe it is one of those "new settings" we have been hearing about for years and never seen (with apologies to the micro-settings in Radiant Citadel).

The announcement for the new Diablo 4 DLC reminds me how much I love that game -- except for the bosses. I hate video game bosses that change the entire play structure of the other90% of gameplay. Yuck. If I had a "skip boss" button for D4, I would probably never stop playing that game. One day...

Is the patch thing still true of the new Steam version? That is what I am asking.

This analogy does not work because the lawnmower is still in your neighbor's garage. Look, GenAI commercial art is bad for art and artists and consumers of art and, well, everyone. But that is a terribly narrow slice of what AI is and can be used for. There are costs, of course, and like...

Also, I totally forgot in all the Game Awards excitement: Temple of Elemental Evil is out on Steam. Has anyone gotten and played it yet?

The idea that no good can come from AI is as short sighted an idea as believing AI will bring us a techno-utopia where everyone can be Spielberg. There are a lot of things AI is really good at, in the same way that there are things computers do much better than humans. We absolutely should be...

I own it and just haven't gotten to it. Not least because I kind of don't enjoy depressing entertainment and I am worried it is going to be that.

OF COURSE they don't sell it in PDF. ::sigh::

I would be interested in their take on 5E sci-fi since, if I understand it correctly, the TTRPG part is a bit of a passion project for the game director.

Aside: Brass Against's Tool covers are AMAZING.

I think i want to get really acquainted with Rivellon before Divinity comes out. Which Divinity games are worth playing all the way through? I plan on definitely doing D:OS2, but should I D:OS1? What about the older games?
