Book of the Dead Review - Part 2: A Storyteller's Perspective [Pathfinder 2e]
16Hello Travelers & Tourists,
Welcome back to RPG Reviews - where I take a look at new or interesting TTRPG products & offer my thoughts on them. This week, we're taking a look at the newest offering from Paizo for Pathfinder 2nd Edition: Book of the Dead!
However, due to the nature of this book, I've actually decided to split my review up into two parts - a longer "Player's Review" (posted last week) & this video - a shorter "Game Master's Review." Don't worry - my usual Sunday Content (Storytelling in Pathfinder 2e) will return next weekend. Book of the Dead is an interesting product that offers material that both Players & GMs are likely to find interesting, so this video will be a second look into the material that storytellers will find interesting!
Full Disclosure: Paizo provided a free pdf copy of this book for purposes of a review. I would like to thank Paizo for sending me this pdf, but I would also like to note: Paizo has not scripted this video in any way. The opinions stated in this video are entirely my own.
As with any review done on this channel, please remember my universal "Grain of Salt:"
You should always "Try Before You Buy" if at all possible, as first hand experience is always the "best review" you will ever receive. My opinion is just that, an opinion - so you should always take it with a grain of salt.
If you would like to check out some of the Book of the Dead content for yourself, check out this link to Archives of Nethys where you can read up on the new monster - the Fiddling Bones:
