Like it. Hoping for the best.
No idea. Withholding real judgement until I see if it's full of crud or not. Like goblins not being core.
I've always liked Sci-fi, so it has my full attention. I wonder if the little Ad blurb is hinting at the more exotic races will be core this time? Core Android's sound perfectly fitting.
Honestly, after the Ultimate Campaign blog that overpromised a cool option("you can play a kid wizard!" Actual Rules: No you can't. At all.) I wouldn't trust the Starfinder blog.
Slowly loosing trust in Paizo as a whole anyway. Too many slash-and-burn erratas...
i'm willing to give it a chance, otherwise i don't know much about it other than Sci fi pathifnder
It'll give me the interesting option of opening up a Star Wars campaign using either the Saga Edition books or a tweaked version of Starfinder, that's fer sure. Lot's to consider.
I gotta ask: What am I gonna be able to use these craft tech/advanced weaponry skills for? Like, examples? I'm also curious what that Inventor feat is gonna do. Mostly curious cause yaknow. I wanna know if those things are gonna be worth the trade-off compared to some other things I could use instead.
Being an inventor, I assumed that you would be able to 'invent' something. As long as it's plausible within a realm of magic, I'm fine with it.
Inventor
Preq: Int 17, Knowledge, (Engineering) 5,
Allows player to craft and modify advanced, even futuristic/ revolutionary technology using the craft skill, along with upgrading ordinary weapons with advanced tech.
In addition, the Inventor may go through a (vaguely GM-defined) crafting process to craft tech which is, for all intents and purposes, a magical item, without the magic, using solely your technological brilliance.

So, as an example, I could create a brain-microchip or something, that would operate and cost similarly to an Intelligence headband? I'd likely try to find time to retrain Craft Wonderous Item in this case. There are a few specific ideas I'd like to run by you as well (In PM's if you prefer).

Exactly. Or, say, a plasma blade that functions as a blade of fire. A Cryo bolter that functions as a Crossbow of Cold, or anything you can plausibly explain.
Hit me with 'em. I look forward to it.
Be back Saturday, going on college trip.
Don't worry. No problem.
So guys, what are we going to talk about in the meantime?
hmmmmm.... uhhhh....Spell scar Oracle seems really fun to try out, i imagine the wacky stuff that could happen
Hah. A gnomes worst fear. MONOCHROME!
yea the bleaching.... scary man....not a good time
I had an idea, but it'll need GM approval since it's not a race from this kinda setting. Not that I had a problem fixing that, fluff wise. :)
Back.
Welcome back.
Hi again! I dunno about you, but I for one welcome our new Formian overlords.
I did have an intensely amusing idea for an -treme sports star Aerokineticist. You have any idea how much sick air time you can get on a board when you can make it fly/style all on its own without pesky "Spell slots" in the way?
Wouldn't that be cheating?
Not if everyone's doing it. Really, if you're serious about it, who doesn't use performance enhancing magic?
Edit: Mr. GM. Any thoughts on what I mentioned in that Inventor PM?
Teachers that use chalk to smack students is an idea I've had. I've got an idea for a Fire/Air/Chaokineticist to.
Wouldn't that kill the kids?
Not if you use the weaker version. Base damage for chalk is zero.
There's a weaker version? This is the thing I can't stand about the Kineticist. Doesn't matter what source I use, it's an atrocious slog to read through. I love the concept, hate the format.
Huh. A stun setting. I should see if my geokineticist can get one.
"It's a soft mineral."
It's only for Telekinetic Blast.
I'm sure I can throw, like, wet sand at a guy and it'd be fine.
Alright, so, nuts to my last idea. Hear me out on this one. New back-up idea is a mounted summoner, with a lance, that whole shebang. And his Eidolon is a living motorcycle which he rides!
Not grabbing me. It's cool, but I'm not interested in just copying a superhero. Same reason I'll probably never play a Shield Champion.
Hm, thought I replied to the PM... Or set it up so I can reply later. Either way, I was enthusiastic, go on ahead with your plans.
What did you want to talk to me about, Rameil?
Ah, it's nothing much yet, since Ramiel is still alive. Just a third party race of fey.
Hm, thought I replied to the PM... Or set it up so I can reply later. Either way, I was enthusiastic, go on ahead with your plans.
Oh, that'll be fun.
Well then, who wants vibro-weapons?
Which one? I'm partial to Fey, myself.
Everyone does. Everyone wants virbro-weapons. As a veteran Star Wars d20 GM, I can attest to that.
Speaking of which, with the coming of Starfinder, how easy do you think it will be to play a Jedi/Sith? So far I've been imagining them as Magi, but I have a feeling Paizo will throw us a bone with some sort of 'Psychic Knight' Class.
I see so many errata and FAQs in the future ruining Starfinder just like Pathfinder...
I'll send the stuff to you in a PM if you like. Or I could make a Google Doc.
The dev team would be remiss without some type of "not-force." Though, I think we'll get a Monk archetype, or even an alternate class before a new one for jedi.
So... Kineticist are Jedi.
down with both jedi and sith......up with the gray....
Even the time the Force told a Jedi it was okay to use Force Lightning? Or the race don't have Light/Dark Side Force and instead have powers based on their emotions? :p
from my understanding of the force the light side is about order and the dark side about emotion neither are inherently good or bad . jedi and sith that's a different story, but those are just specific groups
