When it comes to D&D rivals, no other game has come as close to capturing the feel than Pathfinder. Helping things along is a dedication to not just matching D&D vibes, but even outpacing it through certain books. Pathfinder Lost Omens: Impossible Lands is one such book, an absolute masterclass of worldbuilding. Fortunately for you, Greater Than Games has it for 50% off for this Black Friday weekend.
Pathfinder Lost Omens: Impossible Lands is now a much more affordable $29.99. Anybody even remotely interested in cool tabletop RPG settings must grab this. The setting takes place in a specific region of Golarion, where two undead wizards battled for over a millenia. While the war has long since ended, the scars of these magical battles still throb throughout the land.
From the corpse fields of Geb to the god-killing smiths of Alkenstar, this book more than lives up to its name. As an avid player, one thing I will always rank modern Pathfinder over D&D are these beautifully crafted sourcebooks. While diversity has become standard fare across the top TTRPGs, I personally feel that most with Impossible Lands.
It explores Pathfinder's take on folklore and culture, from South Asia, West Asia and certain parts of Africa, while still giving it an original flavor. You can tell as much from the writers they've hired for the book, who come from a host of backgrounds.
And they put these diverse backgrounds to incredible use. Impossible Lands has 344 pages of the deepest lore for all five of its fictional regions. There's a "lived-in" vibe that's immediately apparent as you read through the lore, the hallmark of great fantasy. For only $29.99, treat yourself to one of Pathfinder's best.
