If you consider the 'basic' edition $55 or so bucks per book (based on currency) is pretty reasonable for tomes of impeccable construction. The deluxe is a commitment, maybe tilted to the hardcore such as myself, but it is damn nice - speaking from owning it. From a utility perspective, you are looking at months of play so the value is there.
Nice video! Btw, my girlfriend saw your ring on your finger and said that you should get it enlarged, because it can be dangerous. She is a doctor and cares for your health, she made me write this comment, cheers!
This looks so amazing. I'd love to play this someday. There are so many interesting takes on magic and mythologically inspired dream-like strangeness. So many great mechanical ideas too. And the tie in to semi-familiar historical events and places is yum! I love your breakdown of it all, well done. On an unrelated sidenote, I am a jeweller and I need to warn you that your wedding band is too small and causing circulatory issues in your ring finger. This on it's own isn't great, but if it gets worse, and your nad gets even tighter, you could easily loose your finger. I highly recommend having it resized a bit. You can DM me if you have any questions.
surprised to see my old dm's name pop up on the channel! this guy is responsible for getting me into the osr. he ran a great game, I'll have to go check out the book
Yes. The poster maps are exclusive to the slipcase edition but the regional and disastrum maps are in the endpapers of the books in the standard edition.
Two things: Do the inhabitants of Otterworld use their noodle while doing the Noodle Dance? If the aliens are from the fifth dimension, they should travel in a beautiful, a beautiful balloooooon.
Looks interesting, but wow did I open up a can of worms posting about a Flame Princess game on Discord. I didn’t realize all of the drama with this setting.
LotFP material is often very artistic and experimental. It's also often transgressive, and many of the people involved with different adventures are very divisive. It's often difficult to discuss an adventure without someone bringing up a different adventure or a different author and how much they hate it/them and you should hate it/them too. All nuance is lost because the guys on Discord want to score their political points and pile on. I think that's a shame, because LotFP put out consistently high quality books (like these) and treat the authors and artists well - for example, through profit-sharing. If you don't like a particular author (a common complaint) then don't buy the books they wrote and they receive none of your support.
This is like William Vollman's Seven Dreams series by way of Caves of Qud. I'm not even a ttrpg enjoyer and I may be picking this up. Thanks for the coverage!
Hey man, you need to be careful about that ring. It looks to me like one of the five accursed treasures of Bel-Sharazni, long thought happily lost in the depths of Kulkarna. Wearing it over time could lead to your body dropping off and only leaving your now-sentient finger behind to continue your life. Take it from me you don't want that to happen as it makes typing a long and laborious affair.
Due to my job and family time I can’t get a group so I solitaire RPG. Please tell me this is possible with this because it looks freakin awesome. Thanks.
I would recommend PbP if you have problems with schedules. It is basically the only way I get to play TRPGs nowadays. It may be a little different from regular table play but it is definitely worth it if you get used to it, and most people run OSRs, DnD 5e and Pathfinder 1&2 (there are people running other systems, but those are the big three that get a lot of games).
This campaign is surprisingly close to my homebrew one. However, a few details directly contradict stuff I've written so it would take a bit of work to use it
Great video! Have you ever actually reviewed LOTFP? I've heard you mention it many times but I searched your channel and couldn't find a video about it. I'm curious why you name drop it so often in your videos.
Oh, dear Flame Princess, the redheaded goth child that refuses to grow up. The rules need a specific story vibe to run as written, and the adventures I'd censor quite heavily for my table - the authors are free to write whatever they want, and the GMs are free to change whatever they want. That said, the few books I own are the treasures of my small collection, just because of how good, and weird, the physical books are.
Very much work went into this product. But is this a setting many people are interested in? I gotta say maybe because im European its hard for me to commect with this setting
I have tended to stay away from LotFP due to its setting being something I don't feel like I can convey very well to players. But this could be the gateway product for me. Just brilliant.

oh. when he said expensive, he really meant it.
And the shipping from Finland is brutal. PDF is probably most cost effective for Americans.
@@QuestingBeast Kind of kicking myself for not buying it at GenCon :(
@@matthewelias7545agreed. I should have grabbed it while I was there.
132€ for standard and 302€ for the slipcase is certainly not trivial

My girlfriend is a doctor and she disagrees. She thinks he needs finger reduction surgery.
@@jasperbirdcycle2024lmao

@@jasperbirdcycle2024that's a good point
Haha, commenters keep telling me that, but contrary to appearances it isn't very tight and comes off quite easily.
I know it's not happening, but I can't help but hope for a reprint of Veins of the Earth. What an incredible book that is.
Some Patrons in the Quinns Quest Patreon suggested your channel for new TTRPGS/RPGS - and boy am I happy they did.
It was a great project to be involved in! A great review and summary, thanks Ben!
The early modern seems so perfect for dungeon crawling and murder hobo-ing and the typical activities of fantasy rpgs.
Maybe you'd be interested in Into the Odd or Electric Bastionland
"Oh hey LotFP curious what interesting sceewed up thing Ben got"
*clicks and sees the tomes*
"OHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH"
Gorgeous.
Their appearance reminds me of the three books in the 9th Gate movie.

Does anyone know if there is a map with the Standard version? (In the books or separate). Very close to buying but the hex map is crucial for me.
Perhaps it comes with the PDF? I'm not sure.
Yes. The poster maps are exclusive to the slipcase edition but the regional and disastrum maps are in the endpapers of the books in the standard edition.

Awesome review. That setting is very distinctive. WANT.
Oh sweet Lamentations
What got me into the OSR as a whole
I'd love to see Atun-Shei either run or play this as his Witchfinder character.
Thanks for the review ! Looks to be a great campaign !
Wow, what an amazing work. So cool!

Do you plan on reviewing “Don’t F___ the Priest”?
No, I don't show NSFW products on the channel.

The core rulebook has a lot of NSFW images, which is not something I show on my channel.
@@QuestingBeastThere is a no-art availabe for download for free in their website.
