It’s aug 1st my dudes, pdf release! (Screams in excitement)

The skittermander are in the core rules! Awesome

I really appreciate this video. Is there any way we can get a written list of the available classes and ancestries? I'm interested in what they've got.

Borai, Prismeni, and Pahtra were all in SF1e, it's cool they will be core options. I think that Starship combat is going to work like it did in SF1e, but checks will be based on skill DCs like combat maneuvers in PF2. The degrees of success will determine how well it works, at least that's my theory. Anyway, thanks for the video.

Great review! Did you find the smaller playing area with the larger ship size (compared to X-Wing) sufficient for maneuvering?

My main problem is detecting magic has now slowed the game down drastically. In the old days, 3 rounds of concentrating let you know the number of magical effects in the detecting area. Now, you know there is magic somewhere within 30 feet. Is it a continual flame torch? Is it a trap on the floor/wall/ceiling? Did someone pick something up earlier and a detect magic wasn't used at the time? Is there something on the enemy you just vanquished? Is there something in a nearby chest? etc... It got so bad at some sessions that it that it wasn't uncommon to have over 1/2 an hour wasted as every player casting Detect Magic had to describe every action they took to discern what was magical (i.e. take a 5 foot step back, cast again. take a 5 foot step to the right, cast again.) This is without adding in the time for casting Read Aura. The DM grew so tired of it that he implemented a perception check to notice if there was more than 1 source of magic. We were still getting affected by more magical traps and situations as well as missing items (in one case a quest item) than we did in the first edition.

I bought the Sketch covered hardbacks for the new remaster release because they're gorgeous, but I am getting the pocket version for my table top/everyday use.

Has anyone figured out the math for determining the threat levels of combined forms the numbers don't seem to make sense to me

Yes Pathfinder is much better balance than d&d. Combat takes two to three times longer. So you want me to remember something that happened 5 minutes ago and apply it to a roll. Pathfinder is so much more difficult

Seems like a good approach. Critical hits stagger the monster instead of boosting a character

Love the ranger for how versatile it is. I was making a character semi-inspired by the Japanese superhero Ultraman and was pleasantly surprised by how well Flurry Ranger fits the vibe I was going for -- a sumo-wrestling monster hunter, master at grappling and tripping.

Catching up on the 2e stuff. Good video Steve.

29:00 - absolutely, I've played D&D, but this is different enough that it is difficult to understand the character creation system without understanding the gameplay system.

Do you have to choose a weapon that you have proficiency to use? Or does it function like spiritual weapon?

Great video! Thanks for the info

Finally got to my favorite class!

Almost to $2 million!

She's not like other familiars!

1. This is the first time seeing your videos. 2. We really have to look at this in a more realistic way. So I think the real question is not how this comps with D&D but how it comps with ToV, Pathfinder, MCDM and Daggerheart. I'm a GM and I want to be where the players are. I'll probably go to D&D 5.5e but I do want to choose a secondary to learn and be able to run. I'm trying to hold out for MCDM. But they are taking a LONG time.

Other familiars awe how cute do you want to scout. Be careful. Witches familiar: you contain my spells and shall join me in battle. Oh you think harmless watch my familiar do decent spirit damage to you and heal my friends or immobilize you.

😅

I am just not familiar

The thing that gets me on ceremonial knife is it says you can make one during preparation. It doesn't say you can have one at a time not if you make another the original looses it's power. So each day you can make a new one and have multiple.

I love that I can use Poker chips for Actions Points, Stamina points, and Mana points

WotC/Hasbro suffers from a special sort of derangement of "as long as we slap the label on it, they'll just buy it." I am not excited or interested in OneDND at this point, especially after hearing all the reviews of their latest adventure module being F tier. They used one of D&D's best villains and for the 50th anniversary they said "who cares about quality? It will make money because it's D&D." That, and after the O.G.L fiasco, the Pinkerton scandal, and the "orcs are black people" comparison, many have sworn that not a single dime more is going to them. PLUS, DC20 early backers are getting a 5e conversion guide so all of the bestiaries we've collected can be repurposed and incorporated into this new game. Even without the above point, DC20 has the appeal of 5e: easy to pick up and explain to your friends who haven't played it. If you were required to say one reason was exclusively why 5e is popular, that would be it. Now that another, new, flashy TTRPG can be easily explained to friends who haven't played, AND is shockingly intuitive, I do see it stealing D&D's throne of "the World's Greatest Roleplaying Game."

39:37 I view Dragon Bane as a classless system and the starting careers are just where you start.

Great video!

Hello, I wanted to ask, is there a limit on how many specializations a character can take?

Good video. One of your chapter titles is wrong: Druid Feat Preview.

Enjoyed listening to your review! I've played this co-op (2P) and solo, and am blown away by how well they managed to translate the video game experience to the tabletop - the attention to detail is remarkable. Probably my top game of 2024 so far.

As far as i understand its more of a modified Version of Pathfinder 2e than a Evolution of DnD5e. Or am i wrong?

Woot! Hello from the Dev Team! 💚 Thanks for sharing with the rest of the internet :)

Thanks for sharing. For the Algorithm. 😉

First! CZcams stuff

You are underrated

Who are the "sith" or druids?

Discord mod looking head ass

fun fact : fungus are closer to animal than they are to plants ^^

He's the best of all the Primes

Cool seeing your thought process on this!

More players mean less randomness.

Great video. Thanks Steve!

about to run this campaign, this really helps me out, still deciding whether to get the next adventure for this

For what it's worth: I really wanted to watch this actual play, but I found the music so loud and intrusive that I couldn't stick with it.

Optimus impression ain't half bad.

Great discussion!

I’m so jealous, still waiting for my copy to get delivered TT^TT (distribution problems)

Good to hear some info about solo play! The more I see the more I like the game but im still not sure id want to play it solo too much!

I have played it on TTS and can say it is very fun. This and the DRG board game are very complex yet authentic to their original experiences.

Where do I download the game? Link please.
