James issthe fiction editor for Paizo, he is also the creative director for the Starfinder RPG releasing at Gen Con 2017.  In this interview we discuss Starfinder. We touch upon the character classes and how Paizo plans on making them feel futuristic without loosing their fantasy aspect.  We go on to talk about tech and how religion matures in Starfinder.  It was a lot of fun and I hope what we discussed doesn’t change too much while it’s on the drawing board.

I have to admit I was skeptical about Starfinder at first, but the more I hear the more I like it!

The Guys from Megacon Games share with me Mercs 2.0 Banner Saga and a sneak peek at the next Myth product.

I really like the new Mercs book.  Banner Saga looks awesome and the next Myth product is, I think, going to be a refreshing change.
