FASA Games, Inc.

Hey everyone, R. S. Tilton here, I'm basically assisting with the development. I have been playing GMing Earthdawn off and on for around 15 years. I run Epic RPG Blog with my kids, and have been gaming since I was 12. My opinion on this is, it is a great change. Durability was always the first thin...

Combat has always been a bit of an issue with Earthdawn's disciplines. The problem is that they aren't really built to work together tactically because Earthdawn isn't that kind of a game. It's one of the consequences of constructing the disciplines so thematically; it doesn't make real world sense ...

To be fair, I don't think anyone expected the Kickstarter to bring in twice as much as the original goal within 48 hours. All of the comments regarding the physical books were made on the "hope" that they could raise $10,000 within a month. Suddenly having a budget twice that size may send...

Most likely true. 2ed Earthdawn with Exciting New Changes! Released the core rules, tribbled out a couple adventure modules and folded shop Earthdawn Classic Edition with Exciting New Changes!

Stormcrow brings up a really good point that I never thought about before. I don't know if other people are in the same boat, but I do feel like your position on Earthdawn is absolutely affected by whether you spend most of your time as a player or a GM. I've owned a copy of every edition and have b...

Thanks for taking time with the Q&A session. Seemed to go over pretty well with everyone. And let me just say that nothing excites me more about 4th edition than knowing that Vivane is not being reduced to "Parlainth West." As much as I love old Vivane, I'm really intrigued by the idea...

Quick question about the hardcovers, though. I saw on the Q&A that the books are going to be digest sized. Are the hardcovers going to be digest sized as well or will they be full sized? Not that it matters to me one way or the other, I just hadn't seen many digest sized hardcovers out on the ma...

I'm on board! I expect to see those Kickstarter-only hardcovers under my tree next Christmas!

Also, I don't think it's very productive for us to argue over whether or not the proposed changes for fourth edition are the developer's "house rules" or not. Doing so veers a bit too closely to the realm of personal attacks. It's clear that FASA Games wants to take a new approach to the g...

I can't believe that this has devolved into an argument over whether or not Earthdawn qualifies as "dark fantasy." Attaching that label to the game creates more problems than it solves. Earthdawn is a fantasy rpg. It has some elements of dark fantasy (Horrors, blood magic, death cults, etc...
