Penny Arcade continues to showcase Pathfinder!

It's really good to see Pathfinder getting the attention it deserves from webcomics. Wizards of the Coast seems to be working out a lot of product placement deals lately. Not that product placement is necessarily bad. In fact it's all been classy and entertianing. Nothing wrong with a nerd comic taking money from a nerd company to showcase a nerdy product which fits within the comic's nerdy theme, and which the comic's nerd audience will enjoy. But considering that Pathfinder is currently a more popular game than D&D fourth edition, It's good to see Gabe & Tycho paying attention to it.

I must confess, I would love to have Tycho as a GM. He's beyond insidious, he's positively evil. That kind of harsh game environment holds a certain appeal. Plus, the man has a way with words that I could never hope to match in a hundred years of studying the craft of writing.

Pathfinder made an appearance in today's Penny Arcade! You may want to click back a few comics to read the rest of the storyline. Essentially, Gabe (the fellow in yellow) is GMing a 4th edition game, but he's lost control of it. He's allowed his players to become overpowered, and is no longer capable of challenging them. Tycho (the fellow in blue) is a much more experienced GM, and has resolved to help his friend teach his players a harsh lesson.

Because GMs are all about the harsh lessons.

Regular Wednesday post will come this evening.
