For my second region deep dive in Tian Xia we're talking about Minkai the setting for the final chapters of the Jade Regent adventure path, and therefore among the most deeply detailed realms in all of Tian Xia!

I also leaned heavily on artwork from the Legend of the Five Rings collectable card and roleplaying games for additional imagery.

Loving all the Tian Xia content! While its not all 100% first party lore my group is running a campaign set there so its cool to learn more stuff about it. Great work as always

[onogal]

Your upload is saving my day right now, terribly sick atm. Love that you're doing Tian Xia nations as well, incredibly useful to my players when we start a campaign there on sunday.

Thanks again for your hard work.

I'm excited for more Tian Xia lore for the Ruby Phoenix group that's ongoing. I'm especially excited for Goka as someone playing a rich sorcerer of Phoenix bloodline from Goka.

Minkai seems really interesting and I wonder how good Jade Regent is as a 1e AP.

Thanks Mythkeeper! Hope youre halloween was good!

[Mr_San]

YES! thank you. now I have what I need to make a proper backstory for my wandering samurai.

[ericknorskr]

Again im binge watching your videos while I play through an unfair wotr save.

I also wanted to congratulate you on your ships of golarion video. amazing video!
I'm doing my master thesis rn and it's about the british navy.
Mostly about the costs and the process of converting a regular ship into an battle-ready one (It was much more expensive than building one from scratch, believe it or not.). and that video scratched an ick that i can only scratch while reading Rif Winfield!

[bazilgrey]

All your videos are great!! Are you ever going to do. Thuvia and Rahadoum deep dive?

[faethlyss]

I love your deep dive videos. They are detailed, interesting, and informative, the perfect combination for this type of video. I don’t know if you’d ever consider it, maybe as a break, or pallet cleanser, but I’d love to see your take on deep dive video on The Scarred Lands setting. I’ve never seen a true deep dive on that setting and it’s one I truly love. Anyways, awesome job as always.

[hikiwa]

Great video, as always!
I wanted to know if you were going to cover Tianjing. It has always intrigued me, but it always felt as if there was very little written down about it, especially on the wiki.

Take care!

[tanhy]

I hope paizo republishes the Jade Regent AP for 2e

[kingfisher]

I really love these videos! You ever consider doing some on starfinder? I ask because it is Golarions future history and I think you might really like to see whats going on nextdoor. While golarion is caught in the datk ages, its neighbors are not. Nevermind the gap. Its a great view of planets civilizations in different stages of technology. But the thing is, its cannon. I would also like you to cover the adventure paths over time if you care to do that like War for the crown.

Got here at 10 seconds and there were already 24 likes that’s awesome.

I hope we'll get a video of Tianjing, city of empyreans. How a city of aasimars guarding a portal filled with qlippoths always fascinated me.

[justinmuze]

Have you run any homebrew games in Tian Xia? Or ran Jade Regent? I would love to be a player in your games.

[donovan]

Fun fact: Teikoku is Japanese for “empire” so it makes sense that character conquering Minkai

[JamesAdams-ndtd]

This series is well-timed (probably intentionally) for after the Tian players guide came out.

On a sort of related note, Any thoughts on revisiting any old topics in light of the release of the Remastered books?

[JackThor]

I wonder how many people notice the L5R art being used. I don't find any problems with using it there hasn't been many ttrpgs doing east Asia fantasy.

[israelmorales]

I don't know the details of the adventure....but Amatatsu Ameiko, become Empress because inheritance and now she expects meritocracy from the Samurais?

[adrikstepanov]

This makes me wonder if Paizo ever decides to push the timeline of what is Pathfinder universe's "present day" even further.... hmm, also, what's Pathfinder's version of Korea?

[yamikami]

Wake up weeb its the weeb place.
While you guys playing dice, i was at home studying the blade.
