Teambook 1: The New Romantics
by Brian A. [Verified Purchaser] Date Added: 11/08/2023 09:14:35

Interesting characters who are a mix of likable and not, great for interacting with PCs, or just giving some characters who might be in the background but offer more presence as needed.

The Babel Dossier Volume 1
by Brian A. [Verified Purchaser] Date Added: 11/08/2023 09:02:40

Full of great items that can prove to be hooks or mcguffins in your games, or actually items for use. Well worth the price, especially the whole bundle.

Crucible of Legend
by Jason [Verified Purchaser] Date Added: 11/07/2023 11:12:38

Honestly david is on the money. This was a pathetic release and actually removes the narrative feel of exalted. I am beyond sorry that I purchased this title I have not found a single optional rule set that actually adds to the Exalted game play experience and have found that most of the setting advice just makes the stories bland. Sorry but this gets a 1 and makes me terrified by what onyx path will do with the rest of the splats.

M20 Lore of the Traditions
by Marcin [Verified Purchaser] Date Added: 11/04/2023 13:46:02

Don't buy this book, it's not worth the paper it's printed on.

This book has been written by Americans, for Americans, with the assumption that nothing of value exists outside of America. It's a racist tract of American cultural imperialism.

In order to be transparent, I'm a European, whose family experienced ethnic and political persecution.

The authors bend over backwards to rewrite the lore of the traditions, to make them evil and supportive of crimes against humanity. But it's selective, for example the book is mum about Akashics and Imperial Japan, barely mentioning their support for the real life evil of Chinese Communism. The book however makes sure to tell you the Sons of Ether, when not busy persecuting scientists of color, were supporting Japan in WW2 and their human experiments. The chapter on the Celestial Chorus even states as a fact there are 21st century crusader states in the Middle East, and it's clear the authors mean real world countries (which exactly, they don't say).

Whenever the blame can be put on someone, it's always the white mages who are all collectively racist and sexist, and only women and people of color can stop them.

This book takes established lore, and throws it out, for no gain at all.

And it gets worse when you realize how the book makes everything USA centric. The Verbena are reduced to Wiccan mages in the USA. Not a peep is said about Norse pagans, Neo-Hellenes, or Old Slavic faith. It's all ley lines and covens of witches. The Dreamspeakers chapter, is one long winded rant told from a Native American perspective. Austronesian spirituality? Not there. Siberian shamans? Not a word.

When looking for something, anything, that would be useful, one has to recognize the dearth of material in this book. It has only a handful of pages with rotes, wonders, etc. Some, like Enochian or the Kitab al Alacir are copy pasted from older books. Others, like NFTs, are already outdated as hell.

If you really want solid lore about the Traditions, try finding the old Revised edition guides. They at least offered unbiased takes on the traditions and more crunch.

They Came From the Cabin in the Woods!
by Matthew [Verified Purchaser] Date Added: 10/27/2023 11:54:02

Excellent addition to They Came from Camp Murder Lake! While not a fully fleshed out adventure, it provides a detailed location (a lakeside cabin for teen campers), three antagonists, and the story hooks and background for a good TCfBtG session. The one addition that'd be nice to have is a write-up of the cursed Arcade Machine, either as an antagonist or a unique source of Enhancements/Complications.

M20 Victorian Age Mage
by Oliver S. [Verified Purchaser] Date Added: 10/26/2023 03:52:25

The greatest thing about Mage is that it shows you all sides and all shades of grey. There are no good guys, only interests and tough choice. This title is a total departure.

To sum this setting up: technocracy="the europeans" (whatever that means) = bad. Anyone else pretty much good. If thats your view of history this game is for you.

I find this view not only inaccurate, extremely simplified and frankly, quite racist, but mainly it elimintates what makes mage great. That we are all struggling, we are all faced with difficult choices and if anything unites us all (as humans) it is this dilemma.

So this is a total no for me.

M20 Lore of the Traditions
by Alexandre [Verified Purchaser] Date Added: 10/22/2023 20:48:34

If you want a book about how and why Traditions exist as "traditions" from the various cultures and have a values both as themselves and as a inspiration for fictionnal interpretation in the game lore, this book is not for you. But if you want a book that reinterpret the various cultures throught the lenses of the very progressive american left, go ahead, cultural assimilation is just a clic away.

Exalted: Essence
by Ian [Verified Purchaser] Date Added: 10/20/2023 08:25:32

Very valiant attempt on Onyx Path's part. While I personally think that attributes and skills were over-simplified, Essence handles Charms better than any other version of the game thus far. Even better, it takes the entire range of the Exalted Host into account in its design from inception! With a few fixes, this ruleset could be the springboard for a rock-solid Fourth Edition of the game.

Crucible of Legend
by Ian [Verified Purchaser] Date Added: 10/20/2023 08:00:34

Gonna have to agree with David here- it seems like Exalted really is cursed anymore. Every developer who gets their hands on it misses the forest for the trees. Almost unilaterally, they get hung up on useless minutiae, and just SKIP the important details to worry at trivia like a dog on a bone. They still haven't made a Venture system that works for 3E, naval combat still barely works, and yet they devote an entire CHAPTER to marm the reader about "how" to enjoy this game.

Tome of the Pentacle
by Philip [Verified Purchaser] Date Added: 10/17/2023 07:05:47

Awesome book! The history of the Awakened was incredible to read about - so many incredible stories and ideas. The Awakened around the world had some great concepts that I want to use in my own game. Definitely worth the wait!

Signs of Sorcery
by Philip [Verified Purchaser] Date Added: 10/15/2023 17:25:58

Great book - a must-have for any Storyteller keen to run mage.

There's a bit of everything in this one - lots of stuff that didn't make it into core is here. It's an expansion in every sense of the word.

It's got rules on crafting, perfected items, expanded stuff on the Supernal Realms, summoning supernal entities, more High Speech, nimbus and mage sight merits, more yantras, soul stone stuff, new mage templates, grimoires, bits on ascension, the metaphyiscs of Awakening and more.

Mage the Awakening 2nd Edition
by Philip [Verified Purchaser] Date Added: 10/15/2023 17:22:47

One of my all-time favourite games to run. The freeform magic system is sublime, the setting is a lot of fun and you can tell some really out there stories.

I really enjoyed this module. Great introduction to TC Assassins and it gives the scenario that isn't just a straight forward assassination.
