Giant Bomb Unplugged: Pathfinder: Part 03

@rorie No, YOU'RE a melee touch attack.

Agree with this. Polling chat for moves would really drag things out and detract from the guys roleplaying and doing their thing.

Brad stop letting Brad's feelings get in the way of Detriot Jones' cunning, rogueish thievery! His plotting adds an interesting dynamic to the group, no reason to feel bad about it.

The final boss should be Detriot Jones with everyone's items stolen powering him up :D Only through a V bomb beatdown will Jones have a change of heart and change his ways to become a trustworthy member of the party.

It's Wyder's Pear Cider. Pretty good, not the best, but good!

@artelinarose: Just so you know :)

Someone get Rorie a photocopier for their character sheets.

I have no interest in DnD to be honest, but this is a great series to watch. Hope you guys keep it up.

This is still my favorite feature on the site right now. Just wanna put that out there.

I've been wanting them to play Gamma World so badly ever since somebody mailed them that copy.

I was looking for other DnD sessions online and found this one kind of entertaining. This group tries to take on one of the most infamously dickish dungeons ever the Tomb of Horrors.

I don't know what program they are using, but I would love to try some online DnD with Giant Bomb community members (I've never played a real pnp RPG). I got sick of free MMOs where its a soulless number grind until you hit the paywall and I don't know anybody. These days I'm more interested in storytelling when it comes to RPGs.

This is probably my favorite subscriber feature this year. You guys are entertaining the hell out of me with each and every session. Thank you and keep up the great work.

Campaigns like this always strike me as implausible. Somehow each room is a random unsullied magical anomaly, with a unique fantastical ecology. What's preventing the spiders from eating the goblins, or skeletons from killing the spiders? Where's the pile of post-mortem nosy villagers, or previous explorers? Just what was the lobster eating to maintain its size? You have multiple apex predators in an enclosed space with insufficient food resources.

Im loving this show! Its hilarious! But minor gripe, Vbomb, while being a great character, Vinny kinda dominates every single scenario, maybe he should let the other guys play abit more.

@luddite: It makes me think of "The Cabin in The Woods". It's a game in many ways...

I like the way you think. Details like this are what I appreciate about a really well-designed dungeon in day the Elder Scrolls or Fallout series. A little thought and subtle backstory go a long way to provide context and atmosphere.

One thing though... If reefclaws are at all like our real-world lobsters, they never diminish in size regardless of nutrient availability. Like many crustaceans, they only grow by molting. Because this process is energy expensive, molting is not initiated if the individual is under-nourished or otherwise stressed or in danger.

The question of what it ate to REACH that size prevails, but they are extreme opportunists and will eat almost literally anything. They will resort to cannibalism, will scrape microscopic algae from the substrate for days if that's what it takes, etc.

You guys might be overthinking this, its just for fun ;-)

There's a concept called Take 10/20. When time isn't a factor you can pretend they rolled until they got a high enough roll to succeed. Such as taking 20 to open a locked door when all the monsters have been beaten so it wouldn't matter in game if it took 15+ minutes.

@francisyorkmorgan: but don't please don't

It is a shame that this series can't continue.

Just got around to watching this. It's a shame we never got to see the end.

For any of those just now watching the series and reading the most recent comments, the fourth of these was misspelled as "pathERfinder", so searches for "pathfinder" will only come up with three results.

Here's the link.
