Paizo Publishing announced Starfinder in May 2016 and the sci-fi RPG has earned a pretty solid core of fans since then. One possible wriggle is the fact the game barely saw any birthdays before the company also announced Pathfinder 2nd edition and some fans worry that happened too soon. The Starfinder Beginner Box isn’t designed […]
Can Pathfinder 2nd edition catch up with Dungeons & Dragons on Twitch?
At the start of the month Paizo Publishing announced Pathfinder 2. We’ve already asked one question about the timing with “has Pathfinder 2e come too soon after Starfinder?” but there’s an equally important one. Have they left it too late?

The only problem with that is tomorrow is the 12th. I’ve taken a peak at Twitch. Right now in Paizo land there’s the […]
Find out all about Starfinder, quickly
One of the big successes of Gen Con 50 was Paizo’s Starfinder RPG. It sold out every day, often in hours. The game is set in the Pathfinder universe and space. It’s not a sci-fi but a Science Fantasy. Is it a reskin of Pathfinder? Nope. There’s more to it. RPG YouTube channel Taking20 put […]
