I always thought the Drift was an underused concept. I want there to be floating chunks of other planes - bits of Heaven and Hell, abyssal dreadnoughts, devil-whales, chaos smurfs, a bit of everything in there. Society travel tends to be very quiet; I want the travel to be the adventure. I hope this moves in that direction.
No, there's nothing, except this is a book that substantially changes one of the core concepts of the world. Books of this sort have been used to justify edition changes or the ending of lines in the past. Couple that with the decision to bump the AP back to one per two months and anecdotal evidence I've heard from store owners of fire sales on new product and low sales and I can't help but wonder. Perhaps I am wrong. Perhaps I am not.

I love the product, and I love the designers, but I am finding the management to be increasingly revealed to be terrible, and unfortunately I'm not seeing the prospect of improvement. I don't want to stop supporting the designers, but man I would love it if they could buy the company and run it right.

I'm in the process of leaving a job I'd had for ten years after a new boss made the place unpleasant and starting a new job Monday which will require a lot of training. My brain has been... taxed and my attention has been low. I should probably bow out now because I just don't have a lot of bandwidth to spare at the moment.
What is the downside for Paizo if they allow all races open to all players immediately? I can see only upsides. If I buy a cool book and love the options and want to play this organized play thing I've heard of, show up only to discover 'No you can't play that until you've been playing for x sessions', then I am unsure as to whether I come back. Sure I can play a pregen and maybe I have fun. Maybe I am turned off by the idea that I just spent money on a book I cannot use in their official campaign. Maybe I find a home group? Maybe I play online? Maybe I decide to go play something else? But if the Org Play program is Paizo's best advertising (and I say it is) then it's not serving their interests to lock cool options behind an ACP system. I get it's not rewarding existing players who did put in the time and effort to get ACP, but honestly? It really doesn't bother me that much. Recreate boons into special bonuses like PFS1e and go that way. Or lock advanced options, like special ancestries made for PFS away behind the ACP gate. Or unique spells? Or unique magic items? Or cool tattoos? Or magical services like resurrection. I just don't see the downside to opening up the cantina feel to all players. It seems like it can only expand the player base.

Sounds good. I'll be on the lookout and we'll get the game started as soon after it drops as I can. Thanks!

Is it possible, when plotting these out, to alternate onboard seasons with heavy metaplot seasons? That way you always have the best of both worlds.
I would love to toss a hat in the ring. I'm thinking an Uplifted Bear Entrepreneur Biohacker, on his way back from a disastrous showing at a venture capitalist convention. Turns out that a vial of liquid skin for burn victims that has a side effect of inflating them like balloons is NOT ready for distribution as much as I originally believed...

I have seen Roll20 work on old tablets, so I can't help but wonder what the glitch is or what could be causing it. It's a very stable platform, so maybe you're just being punished by some obscure gremlin?

You might know basic information about something without needing to attempt a check, but Recall Knowledge requires you to stop and think for a moment so you can recollect more specific facts and apply them. You might even need to spend time investigating first. For instance, to use Medicine to learn the cause of death, you might need to conduct a forensic examination before attempting to Recall Knowledge. Bolding is mine. Recall Knowledge isn't for common knowledge; it's for specific actionable intelligence. |
