I know that the new Path Finder will have some players stuff in it, but I've always got more use out of Dragon then Dungeon (I'm a DM and my players got me a subscription to both, on e fore my bithday and one for Christmas).
But I really would love a players Mag, that wasn't tied to Pathfinder, even if it's 6 or 4 times a year.
I agree. I always loved looking at new information for players. My campaigns typicly feature fights against NPCs of the common races with class levels rather than against monsters. The player info always helped me improve my NPCs.
I posted a similar request last night in the Dragon general questions messageboard. We definately need a players magazine. The bottom line is that Pathfinder, no matter how great it is, won't get the job done for the majority of PLAYERS. Good for DMs, not so good for everyone else.
No one at Paizo has answered my question about a non-compete clause, though, so I suspect that's what is stopping this.
Lately I've found the Dungeon material more inspiring, but it they approach this right and make it something I want to use for my NPCs, and that players would to use with their new campaign world, I'd sign up for it.
I agree! I want a Players Mag as well. Dragon always interested me more than Dungeon...
Yeah, a player's magazine is exactly what we'll need after Dungeon and Dragon have ended.
Even if they can't offer a true subscription and have to increase the price thanks to a possible non-compete clause, I would be willing to pay for a smaller-than-Dragon monthly supplement if only to see the Dragon (and Dungeon) columns return.
Yes, please have some version of players book/magazine.
Pathfinder and Gamemaster adventures will be great for me, the DM. But my players are often wanting to spend their hard earned cash. I don't want them buying duplicate copies of Pathfinder and reading the adventure! I also don't want them buying the latest WotC supplement since they will want to use it in game. I'd prefer them have a Paizo product that was developed in parallel with the Pathfinder/Gamemaster products.
So Paizo, what products do you have that I could recommend to my players to satiate their gaming material appetite?
