I liked it.
Coulda had about 50 more pages of info though. For the price-tag. Then again, mine's from the grab bag and autographed, so who am I to complain?
Eyes without life, maggot-ridden corpses, mountains of skulls... these are a few of my favourite things.

By the way, in case you're wondering... I do this { :thwak: :badbad: } constantly, but in general my opinion of PB writers and books is { :ok: }.
In general that is. There are instances where I wish things were different there, like when things get cancelled entirely, or mega-plots happen.
But I liked the magaverse Builder quite a bit, even designed a small dimension which my PCs are likely going to keep for themselves {after they get the space station they pirated there lol}.

It is a great source book and for building your own adventure background for your d-hoping PCs.

I use the Megaverse Builder all the time, actually. Random tables and dimensional anomalies galore, topped off with transdimensional nasties like that blue demon (can't remember the name).

About the only concern I've ever had was the souped-up Shifter. I tend to find it a wee bit too powerful for anything outside of Phase World, but to its credit, I like the list of different benefits for different kinds of supernatural forces to link with! :)

I liked what it did for Shifters, it really expanded there potential and brought them out of the shadow of Temporal Wizards. also the Tolkien Artifact hunter OCC is cool, playing one on Phase World at the mo.

I picked this book up over the weekend. So far, I really like it: especially the revisiting on the Shifter. I am looking at the shifter a little differently now.
The dimension builder is really nice as well.'
The only thing this book needed was a way to make the Palladium Megaverse itself uniform and consistant.
