Rifts inspired 18 year old me to create a dimension book. It’s long gone, but I’ve revived it into a world for my writing. I’m only just beginning to write, but I’m enjoying it still as a 46 year old man. Atlantis was the dimension book that really got my mind running. I love this stuff!

I've been using some KZread videos, including this one, to get me the refresher. I think my main issues as a wannabe DM who never had enough players to do THAT kind of game were with conversions... because Palladium Fantasy (either one) had legitimate balance. To the extent I'm reviving my abandoned ideas about 'adaptations', it's to keep that balance despite hopping dimensions. But yeah, great setting, refreshers are interesting too.

OH MY GOD TMNT the memories!!!! I played this ninja deer thing and had a blast goofing off with friends in HS until 6am. God I'd give anything to go back to those days. Thx for the shot of nostalgia!!

I have been struggling with different rpgs to fit my setting for a decade. This is basically the catalyst of change in my world! This has made my week. I would love to here more about this setting from you, even as I look into it myself.

Fun fact: years ago I was helping my friend tidy up and clean out his basement. We found 3 Rifts books. Neither of us knew what they were, but I figured the cover art looked cool. And so my friend gave them to me. The books mostly sit in my drawer. Sometimes I might get enough curiosity to browse through one but…. Never played Rifts, I do find the lore and concept fascinating.

Always loved Rifts, Palladium and the rest of their titles. The 3 galaxies are a great space setting.

I have been traveling the megaverse for more than 30 years. I have loved all of your DnD content and it helped me integrate DnD worlds into Palladium, specifically Toril, Krynn and Sigil.

Great video, AJ, and OH! MEMORIES! I was one of the OG players of the TMNT RPG. I both loved TMNT becoming a cartoon and was one of those who raged against it, eventually we all agreed it's an alternative universe TMNT that the Turtles wrote as a spoof on their world, mostly by Mikey. Don't look at me like that, we all (our group) agreed that it's a fun idea. My human-looking mutant wolf ninja became friends with them and sat in on the group talking about their next story... us, playing TMNT the RPG, having a discussion with the turtles writing the TMNT cartoon. It was awesome mind candy RPG fodder for the game. Sorry, back to the Rifts universe. My most-played character was a Storm Dragon. I at first considered playing a Juicer, but I decided against it because of the short life of one... expecting our campaign to live longer than the Juicer would. We used every single magic rule they had and our DM (GM? Guy who had the books and ran that game) had a bunch of his own homebrew rules that he got inspired from my Loom of Magus AD&D homebrew. Oh, and we decided that fighting game characters that we play on our game systems worked very well within the Rifts reality. I mean, beating a car into wreckage in less than a minute... hurling fireballs and electrical bolts capable of knocking people around while also taking such hits without getting blown into bits... doing uppercuts that knock people way into the air while also taking them without dying... you get the idea. One of the players that capitalized upon the whole willing PPE thing for animals, I'm not sure if it's possible in core rules or what character type he created, but he was a "Dog Shaman" (loosely inspired by such a shaman from Shadow Run). He had a BUNCH of loyal dogs at his disposal, and they willingly gave up their PPE for sacrifice rituals... so, reusable PPE pools that were also loyal good boys (and girls). He was really useful... except in fights, even with battle armor access... and he had a mobile kennel of dogs to look after. His three "brother dogs" were not quite dogs, they were like TMNT mutant animals (dog looks, full biped, full hands). Those guys just stuck with the "normal" dogs. Being a Storm Dragon, I could not go near the dogs, even in human form, because they would go terrified-nuts. So, I guess in Rifts, dogs can smell through a magical shapechange the same way they can sniff out an infiltration type cyborg in the Terminator universe. I was told that in Rifts, animal senses include a psychic extension, is that true? I never ran Rifts games, so I never really knew... never read (that much of) that side of the rules. When I got comfortable enough with the Rifts reality to create a homebrew being of my own imagining that our GM approved of, the campaign never really moved after that. Our group drifted back to my AD&D games and another member's full explosion of Star Wars RPG and FASA Star Trek (would now be called ST:TOS) RPG missions. Oh, and every once in a while, our Rifts GM (DM?) would "just for sh^ts and giggles" have us in "not-campaign-reality-related" fight a Rifts bad guy. Basically, play-test a bad guy against us in a death battle without in-campaign consequence. The reason I bring this up is the Rifts Horseman of War. For the love of God, that guy is a killing machine... a TPK guy. He's practically MADE of weapons of war, and he's not limited to what he can reach - for what he can use. Sorry for the long one here. You hit a 90s nostalgia button here with me. As long as you are doing Rifts, can you do the Four Horsemen? War was a total badass. Our party was at the point where most combat was a guaranteed win... the challenge was only in how long it took. Maybe the Horsemen changed significantly since the 90s, but I doubt it... I doubt WotC (or the Palladium [if I spelled that right] equivalent) had their middle-finger-to-canon "geniuses" brainstorm that. I'd totally love a Sage AJ Pickett video on those guys, and I am confident that I'm not alone on this!

AJ, thank you _so much_ for your recent Palladium, and specifically Rifts content! Rifts was a major part of my adolescence in the 1990s. I cut my teeth as a GM throwing Mechanoids, dead boys, DBees, vampires, and Xiticix at my friends' characters for years. These videos were pure nostalgia for me. An itch I never knew needed scratched. There isn't much Rifts content out there; its popularity sharply fell off in the 2000s. It's a shame because the Rifts setting is among the most extraordinary, robust, and complex of RPGs. Critics get bogged down in the combat system and lose sight of the forest for the trees. I know there are many other RPGs worthy of focus. But, I'd like to see more Rifts content before moving on to feature other titles. Thanks again. PS, I remember sometime around 2003, 2004... six or seven years after the last game of our campaign, thinking... "My Hyperion Juicer would be dead by now." 😄

Balance is all in the storytelling with rifts. I'm running a savage rifts game with a mind melter, an engineer, and a dragon. Sure, the dragon can fight near anything, and the mind melter can cause all their enemies to just kill each other. But the engineer built/maintains the party's mobile base, can operate technology the other two don't understand, and has saved the day more than once with jury rigged MD pipe bombs. Not to mention that he isn't automatically an enemy of the CS and doesn't stick out like a Beacon. Rifts isn't all about power, it's about teamwork and applying your unique, varied skillsets to the challenge. And that's why it's one of my favorites

AJ, you describe it well. Palladium’s mechanics are baked into their world building. You could totally replace D&D’s vancian magic system with something else and not affect how the game works (i.e. 4e); but you can’t do that so easily with Rifts, et al.

But, that's not what I am saying Ryan. First off, Savage Rifts exists and is doing well.

I loved playing Rifts with friends. I was introduced to it in high-school, and never really let it go. I applaud you choice of book-covers to highlight. It's a welcome respite from all the over-sensitive and politically 'correct' pressure. Rifts is the world you chose for it to be, this can be as grim and fatalistic as desired, or it can delve into fantastic adventures, or swashbuckling absurdity. Every new book opens up a very weird new world, and there are a lot of them that are definitely not 'politically correct'... which is a weird thing to be praising in a world with monsters that view humans as popcorn!
