I'm alive! Just deep in the lore and map weeds as I flesh out more setting stuff. Revisions are exciting and also tedious!

im relearning that a crucial part of revision is absolutely despising every word of your book, every word youve ever written, all your life choices, the cursed egg from which you sprang, and the human creation of alphabets

Getting back in the habit of sketching out my setting maps, I had forgotten how satisfying drawing mountains could be.

@paizo.bsky.social ... This is such a nice change. I am so happy to see these changes. Alignment removal and base score removal... 10/10. Not to mention Disarm changes...

We're still looking for one more player to run an Intro to Pathfinder2E! Come on down and learn one of my favorite systems! DM me for details!

Speaking of, here's another that probably needs some revisions, but I still like the foundations.

So, I'm running an Intro to Pathfinder2E game, what is the thing new players tend to be intimidated by the most in this system? And by extension TTRPG in general?

Another TTRPG map! I found this one in the back of a folder that i don't think I've looked at in literal years! Might be time for some revisions, but how does everyone feel about exaggerated island clusters?

There is something magical about being a Pathfinder GM, looking through monsters while planning future encounters under a certain theme, and finding one which causes the satisfying internal reaction of, "Yes, this one."

As a foundation for stories and shared settings i appreciate it as it gives a baseline that can be acknowledged by the audience. Beyond that, i think people are too attached to the idea of a single, immutable series of events. Granted, this is just in regards to fiction and TTRPGs.

I'd say 3 is a solid number of classes for testing, that way you can get an idea of how you want them to be balanced against each other. On the other hand, it would depend on how much identity is tied to the class itself vs something like archetypes within each class. Though I'm a sucker for choice.

Worldbuilding question for any that want to answer: When designing dungeons, and by extension any structure, is it better to build it with it's in-world function as a priority, or with the intent that PC's will interact with it and you should place your McGuffins with player habits in mind?

Maybe proper introductions first! I'm Alex, nice to meet you! I'm a TTRPG enthusiast, which includes writing my own worlds and adventures! So I guess this is where I mention Pathfinder, DnD, maybe some Shadowrun and Numenera for good measure? Don't mind me, still adjusting to feeds, lol
