Episode 19: Lords of Waterdeep, Pathfinder MMO, Business Board Games, and Character Death

In episode 19, the founders dig into the recent Wizards of the Coast hit Lords of Waterdeep to bring you a walkthrough and review. Tony delivers to us news from the gaming world and we have a debate about the Pathfinder MMO technology demo project on Kickstarter. Then we tackle the topic of business board games suggested by one of our listeners. We cover the basics of what elements define a business board game, what makes a good business board game, and what business board games we are and aren’t fans of. Our final discussion segment covers death in tabletop roleplaying games including why character death is needed, how lethal a game can be before it starts becoming more stressful than fun, and a possible alternative to death.
