News break - Pathfinder delivers novel way to fight powergamersBellevue, Washington. "The open playtest of
Pathfinder RPG was a huge mess," Erik Mona, president of
Paizo Publishing LCC, confessed to a team of press officials this morning. "We've basically created a whole set of
new imbalances in the rules, and it ain't looking good" said a consternated Mona. Luckily, his team recently "hit on the sweet spot" in their search for an answer. "The only thing wrong with imbalances is people exploiting them, innit?" Mona asked slyly. "So we figured, the only thing setting people apart exploiting weaknesses from those that don't, is their cleverness in the
finding. Of the weaknesses. If ye get my point." In a stroke of genius, Paizo then decided to flag all imbalanced classes, magic items, and spells explicitly as such. "So everyone can find them!", Mona added with a beam on his face. "It's fair to all, not rewarding cleverness and all: if
that other game ain't doing it, why should we?"
While deemed to deliver a crushing blow to advocates of powergaming, press echo declared it a new watershed in progressive RPG design.
