Watch Fantasy Authors Play Pathfinder!

Thursday, June 9, 2016

Last year at Gen Con, I had the opportunity to run a bunch of award-winning fantasy authors through We Be Goblins! in front of a live audience. Now we've teamed up with our friends at Tor to put the whole game online, unabridged and uncensored, so you can watch Elizabeth Bear (Karen Memory), Scott Lynch (The Lies of Locke Lamora), Wesley Chu (Time Salvager), Max Gladstone (Three Parts Dead), and Django Wexler (The Thousand Names) run around as goblins, riding pigs and setting things on fire for the glory of the Licktoad Tribe! Plus, watch me frantically try to accommodate plot twist cards thrown in by notoriously sadistic Editor-in-Chief F. Wesley Schneider. It's a spider-riding, horse-chopping good time for all involved!

We're not going to get yet another Goblins module for Free RPG Day 2016 are we?

Yes, we are. You even commented in February on a thread where it was mentioned.


Welp, that's a let down. :(


Why? The goblins modules are hilarious. A new FRPG Day adventure featuring some of the newer classes would have been fun too, but the Goblins are always fun. You get to be a true hero in them. A hero to goblins at least.


I have never been tempted to watch a video of people playing games, but... Scott Lynch? May do.


How about an audio only version?

I don't like to play as monsters (even if they are playable races).

Liberty's Edge

Then perhaps it is not the module for you, free or otherwise? No one suggests you need to do so, lol, I in fact only ever get to play the more odd and "monster" races in those, as they don't always fit in or find a good story to work in other modules and adventure paths - so I find these free ones very hilarious. And this is just entertaining as a video.

I was at this event to represent the PTBC and got to pick a lot of the cards Wes was throwing in to mess with the players, it was a great time!

Will something like this be held again this year? If so, two of my colleagues from Order of the Amber Die will be returning to GenCon and might be able to attend...

Frankly, you don't really like a lot of stuff considering how many times you post in blogs to complain about new products .-.

Even if it's for monster on monster action? (sounds dirty :/ but I don't think the goblins will notice)
