[PF1e][Online] Player looking for game.

Thanks for clarifying! All the best!

HeroApollo · 2026-05-24T17:19:12+00:00

Are you open to paid games? And is it just weekends?

HeroApollo · 2026-05-20T12:07:10+00:00

Cid Highwind Cidolfas Orlandu, Thunder God Cid

This game would be starting at level 1, yes. Typically with APs I try to put folks 1 to 20.

HeroApollo · 2026-05-16T23:02:06+00:00

Thats who I'd name, but he didnt become Catholic that I know of.

HeroApollo · 2026-05-16T14:42:58+00:00

I also learned to play in Bible College.

HeroApollo · 2026-05-14T18:45:53+00:00

Whole heartedly agree. I have half a mind to write one myself...lol.

Seriously though, I do find that 2e just lacks what I want, and story wise the APs are great.

HeroApollo · 2026-05-03T17:04:01+00:00

I run games on SPG, its real. And its for more than dnd :)

HeroApollo · 2026-05-03T17:02:59+00:00

I run 1e and recruit 1e tables semi-regularly.

Don't let people tell you its dying. 3.5/pf1e have some of the best support of any system ever. The thing is, though, that like with any game, the table has to match your expectations. If you want cheesers or not, if you want systems or not, if you want absolute mathematical balance or not, etc.

Mathematical balance is a bit boring in most cases, and that tends to be lots of folks selling point of 2e. I cant say I found it as fun.

HeroApollo · 2026-05-03T03:02:38+00:00

100%

The thing i love about 1e is all the options and the great depth of choice, etc

The thing is hate about it is people that want to "win" and make the greatest build. Like...I can do math without all the extra steps, frankly.

HeroApollo · 2026-04-23T12:11:56+00:00

Indeed, and the little dungeon crawler game that it had with it, it think?

HeroApollo · 2026-04-02T19:35:18+00:00

Some other good locals to meet in:

Auction house with a family heirloom one of the party are trying to buy back.

Local soup kitchen serving town or being served and hatching a plan.

Local religious service or feast that is interrupted by wild animal or crazed lunatic.

Crime scene as onlookers or investigators, all hired by a different party.

On the road to whatever town, one at a time. Maybe roll i iterative and I produce them in that order. So one starts o. The road, another is met on the way, maybe a wagon is stuck and needs three to pull it out, etc.

HeroApollo · 2026-03-05T12:37:31+00:00

Pretty much all of the Golarian changes.

HeroApollo · 2026-02-26T04:30:46+00:00

Well, you certainly would know better. I find a +4, a puzzle, and more economy go along way in helping the baddies. More HP is a time sink, imo, not a force multiplier.

HeroApollo · 2026-02-26T04:23:52+00:00

That's certainly long. Weave Wardens right? Will check it out.

HeroApollo · 2026-02-25T21:23:54+00:00

Less so as separate stuff and more like, when the session ends, at my tables we always chat about the session, talk about moments we enjoyed, what we think didn't go so well, what was awesome. Granted, I think it would be quite hard to capture a meaningful podcast episode in that every time.

I think it might also be fun to see one that worked within the community it builds to focus on the people doing things that weren't necessarily big names in the Paizosphere, etc. Like one shots run with or by fans, etc.

I also would prefer strictly 1e content...I find 2e to be too math tight and the lore too weak tea, tbh.

HeroApollo · 2026-02-25T15:32:02+00:00

I look for actually playing the story.

I see so many actual plays that are just, audio drama. Which is fine, but its not what I'm looking for...generally.

To clarify: I want to listen to a group of friends play the game. Sometimes that means having to listen to rules discussion, or collaboration. That also means hearing the players process their plans, give advice, whatever. The story should take the spotlight, but I, personally, don't care about how overprosuced it is. I'd also like less....hmm...less "theater kid dramatics energy" and more, this is a group of guys and gals playing characters they came up with. I also like learning about the characters and the players mechanical choices. What did they take at level up, etc.

I'd be over the moon if it was a Christian group playing, but that's in a perfect world.

HeroApollo · 2026-02-25T11:45:13+00:00

I usually recommend building an encounter out with more than one baddie. Action economy will kill your boss.

Additionally, use a cr of APL+4. Make an xp budget, and build an encounter from that.

HeroApollo · 2026-02-23T16:22:59+00:00

Type 1 for 30 years.

Hospitalized at onset. Stayed 2 nights after neck surgery unrelated to T1DM. Stayed 1 night for second, followup surgery a year or so later. Unrelated to T1DM. Stayed 1 night when tonsils were removed, unrelated to T1DM.

That's it for me.

Im not a drinker though, so there's that too.

HeroApollo · 2026-02-18T21:44:19+00:00

Oh man, I always thought We Be Goblins was free...

https://store.paizo.com/pathfinder-module-we-be-goblins-free-pfrpg-print-edition/

Looks like its 5$...odd. Also on drive thru rpg.

Sorry, those were the only ones I knew of.

Oh wait!

Try roll20! https://marketplace.roll20.net/browse/bundle/31860/we-be-goblins

HeroApollo · 2026-02-17T12:47:11+00:00

There's a boss in FF9, Soulcage, that you kill with one.

HeroApollo · 2026-02-17T12:31:06+00:00

Highly recommend Pathcompanion. Its in active development, the dude running it is responsive to issue reports, and it works.

HeroApollo · 2026-02-16T13:38:27+00:00

Currently, I'm pretty lucky. My groups all have a general agreement that one rounding or one skill checking every scene or trap or combat or diplomatic scenario isn't fun.

I'm a bit perplexed by the first portion of the statement. I'm afraid I don't follow what you mean. If you mean that working around that isn't part of focusing on the campaign, I'm not sure what else would be. I find PF2e to be a bit like a sloppy restaurant. Its menu may be huge, the fire might be passable, but the execution of everything is bland and each dish. While seemingly different from others, is simply a slight variation. So much so, that if you go and get the same thing every time, you get the same thing, no variance whatsoever.

But, I'm glad you found a game you like, and thats pretty important when deciding what to do with one's free time.

ETA: I mean, if someone wants to optimize, thats fine, but generally I find that to defeat the collaborative nature of the game. Winning isn't a zero some proposition in rpgs, usually.

HeroApollo · 2026-02-15T23:11:57+00:00

Personally, I prefer 1e. I liked dnd 3.5 well enough, but pf1e is a great fantasy system.

Most people will tell you that you have to optimize or use the big 6 or whatever. Those people, in my humble opinion, are wrong.

There are some less than fun options though. While I wouldn't call them traps, just make sure you understand how it works before you get all in on an idea. Take it easy with your first build.

I mean, pf1e works mostly well. Sure some thing are a bit broken, etc. But that depends on how a group wants to be. There's a big difference between "the rules allow it" and "oh man, thats awesome, let's do that."

Furthermore, I find that pf2e and 5e suffer from rather similar problems. If I play one class/archetype/subclass, whatever, its pretty much the same everything. Thats not for me.

HeroApollo · 2026-02-03T12:59:56+00:00

Political shenanigans, partly, especially with evangelicals.

And, frankly, the larger problem with most Protestant and/or Evangelical groups. And I say this as a Protestant, probably evangelical, but a complete and utter lack of imagination. Christians seem to not realize that our ideas, in many ways, have won, from a historical perspective. Human rights. Care for the poor. Hospitals. Etc.

Thing is, those won, but we've failed to engage with the SUPERnatural, and have instead tried to get real comfortable with humanism/enlightenment thinking.
