There is 1 week left on the Starfinder: Afterlight videogame kickstarter. They blew past their initial goal within hours on the first day and have cleared through 8 of their stretch goals since then.

My physical copy of Starfinder 2E Alien Core arrived Saturday. So far I'm enjoying what it has. It feels like there are a good number of options for enemies to use in future sessions. Unsurprisingly there are some delightfully silly creatures included. Like the Typodaemon, which create conflict by making discreet adjustments to text, changing a word, adding a taunting emote, or adjusting punctuation to create entirely new meanings for written words.
I ran the first bit of the Starfinder Society scenario “Breaking the Crucible”, today. Which I updated to SF2E rules. It went well, the two Operatives nearly went down near the end of the first fight, due to the critical I kept rolling, but the Witchwarper finished off the last 2 Hellknights in time. We also had some fun with two players doing an RP flashback to an interaction they had on their ship at the start of the adventure.

My physical copy of the Starfinder 2nd Edition GM Core arrived today!
Ran another Starfinder 2E session with my friends yesterday. Since the Player Core just launched, we still used the Playtest rules for this session.
This was the first 100% home-brewed mission I've had my players (the crew of the Barrash) go through. It was a lore-heavy escort session with only one bit of comparatively easy combat toward the end. It was a lost and abandoned Pre-Gap colony idea with some Ilee/Astrazoan and First Ones touches.
Very little buzz on Mastodon about #Starfinder2e so far! I've been really enjoying digging into it, but I'm really missing any details at all on Ships. Apparently some narrative combat rules are coming, but I had to go to #SF1e to find details on drives and such. I need this, because I'm world building and I broadly want my world to work with the mechanics.
Anyway, classes and ancestries look really fun and there's a lot of inspiration to steal from the official setting for mine.
This week the launch of Starfinder Second Edition is just days away, and we take an early look at the Player Core. So much great stuff here!

Got an email this morning that my physical copy of the new Starfinder 2nd edition Player Core has shipped. I can’t wait to get my hands on it!
This weekend I’ll be running my first 100% homebrew StarFinder 2E session. It’s my 10th session overall, but the first one that isn’t at least based on an existing adventure or one shot. The basic premise is discovering a seemingly abandoned possibly pr-Gap colony that was built above buried technologically advanced ruins. I had fun writing up a bunch of brief logs for party to find to learn a bit about the colony and what happened there.
After last Sunday’s Starfinder session I’m feeling more comfortable running Paizo’s PF2E/SF2E system. I definitely have more learning to do as a GM and I’ve yet to be a player, but I’m pleased with the direction things are heading.

Started rewatching Strange New Worlds and it’s giving me ideas for Starfinder sessions.
Ghosts of Illyria, specifically the B-plot with Pike and Spock, could work well for for the loose story-arch I’m starting.
Today’s Starfinder session was good and a lot of fun. My wife and one of our friends got to tryout their new characters and another friend/player got to do some cool shit with their character they’ve only played once before. They successful made it into the Daughters of the Glitch hideout undetected, turned the leaders office into a nice little killbox, and got their revenge for the TPK from the previous session.
Spent a few hours today helping Peggy make her new Starfinder 2E character. She’s going with an Astrazoan Operative (Skirmisher) with strong intimidation. In our next session she will be introducing them as Shirren Operative, so it should be fun if she decides to change forms in front of the other players.
I had my first ever TPK as a GM last Sunday. These have been episodic adventures using the SF2E playtest rules and my friends/players did give me the go ahead that they expect characters to die. Still doesn’t feel great to TPK them though. Next session will be new/other PCs seeking revenge.
I was taking a look at the Technomancer playtest info for StarFinder 2E. I love the whole Programming Languages instead of magic school thing and the names they've given the languages.

Session 4 of the StarFinder 2e game I’m running for friends. We had some fun with doing more blind rolls and they found all 4 missing agents by theme of the session. Next session they’ll be dealing with the group that killed most of the missing agents, and likely finding some interesting ancient data. They came up with a new term “Rusting Glitch Face” as well.
