Episode Synopsis

Welcome to the Saving Throes podcast! This is my Tabletop role-playing game podcast, part of the Red Rooster's Gaming Coop network where I talk gaming and gaming culture every week. Each episode will feature a topic or theme along with my take on current happenings in the world of tabletop role-playing games and semi regular updates on the games I am currently involved with, or new games or products I have come across.This week I am introducing a new segment called Roll for Initiative where I compare roleplaying games and determine who comes out on top as a the stronger competitor. For this first instalment I thought it would be rather timely to compare the different editions and iterations of Pathfinder - first edition, second edition and the recently released remastered second edition, as there are some key differences. All 3 versions bring something to the table and tastes may vary, but depending on where you are coming from, there will be one version that will stand above. I compare the major changes from 1e to 2e and then the more minor adjustments to 2e for the remaster project which was done to finally get away from the shadow of D&D and the baggage of the OGL. Tune in to hear my recommendations and as well what I personally prefer.If you would like to reach out, you can reach me at [email protected] - I would love to hear from you!
