If I'm understanding James Jacobs correctly, the way it works at Paizo is that the designers come up with new rules systems (like Words of Power or the custom race-building system for the Racial Supremacy Guide) and developers churn out feats, spells, adventures, etc. for use with the existing rule...

Open playtests look awesome on paper, but I don't know how you'd begin to implement them without being very open-minded. It doesn't even look good on paper. The general idea used in the industry is to design a game and then put the game to open playtest. Thus the open playtest occurs after everythi...

Kicking employed people out of your economy will not cause increased economic production. Remind me not to do this too often, but I completely agree. There is a reason that places that teach prisoners workplace skills and help them find jobs experience less recidivism; people don't actually want to...

Kind of blows holes in your theory, no? Actually it doesn't. You need to drill down into the actual demographic information within Canada to understand the dynamic; a lot of it is kept under the rug as it were. Generally such diversity is located in the urban centers (the French Speakers don't live...

No. It's supposed to be a roleplaying game divided into two parts: Combat challenges and Skill Challenges. Well it was SUPPOSED to be a system with two forms of concurrent resolution, combat challenges and skill challenges. They were SUPPOSED to work together at the same time. It is important to re...

Yeah, agreed. Folks sometimes hanging their dislike of an entire system on a single example of change - it's just shorthand. Most folks won't have time to sit and listen to the whole explanation, so the old-school gamer picks one of the more easily recognized changes that bug him and uses that as a...

Jewish tradition is somewhat anti-Egyptian, but not completely so. There is no embalming, no removal of organs (save for autopsies and organ donation), a simple cloth cover, and no coffin (if there is one holes are drilled into them to allow contact with the earth). Tombstones are requires to identi...
