I found the series definitely improved as it went on so it might be worth giving it another shot.

Of the various announcements that have come out of GenCon, this is the one that excites me the most. I'm really looking forward to seeing this Adventure Path a year from now. I tend to like the Adventure Paths that push the boundaries a little bit, but I can understand where you are coming...

I think this is a great list! By the way, you mentioned Pathfinder Unleashed up above. I think you meant Pathfinder Unchained.

Wouldn't you be worried about spoilers (assuming you were going to play/run the adventure)?

According to Wil Wheaton, it should be available on Thursday. Maybe it will appear on the Green Ronin site that day?

The award will go to WoTC because it was Wizards that was nominated. Hopefully they'll have the good grace (and I bet they will) to thank or invite the Kobold Press crew to share in accepting the award.

Couple of points: 1) I initially wrote my post before Owen's made it through. He probably started his post well before mine because his post was much longer. I didn't see his post appear until after mine was completed. 2) That said, I kind of did revisit things in my followup post which...

I think you just hit on what set off the outsourcing thread. It's because the adventures and supplements were in partnership with Kobold Press, Green Ronin and Sasquatch Games. So it didn't appear to be individual freelancers like you would see in your typical product. It doesn't matter that...

My two cents on the outsourcing thing is definitely outsourced given just how much of the work the contracting companies are doing. They've gone well beyond what Paizo does with hiring freelancers or what WoTC did back in 3E days. It goes well beyond just writing the adventure text. That said...

I've seen different things. Paizo has the "lite" version of their core books with the graphic depth toned down. They load a lot faster on tablets. I've seen other publishers offer different orientation (landscape vs portrait) options for the pdfs which supposedly are easier to read on tablets.

Not that I could see, but this particular product line (Pathfinder Campaign Setting) is almost always 64 pages. The exception would be the hardcover books in the line, of which there are very few.

I normally make the effort to vote for the ENnies, but this year I'm just not feeling it. Some of the choices the judges made seem a bit wonky in my mind. To each his own, I guess. We can't all have the same tastes. That said, I'll probably still vote. Glad to hear confirmation that the...

It's from the view point of the Pathfinder version of goblins who tend to be both humorous and demented. If you're familiar with the Pathfinder goblin, then you know what you're in for. Personally I've enjoyed this series (from the demented mind of Richard Pett) so far.

it's actually in at least two countries (Canada and US), but I don't believe anywhere else. Some of those who participate in FreeRPG day also release their Free RPG Day offering for free online in digital form. Paizo typically does this a week or two after the Free Rpg Day event for instance.

Isn't Metal Gods the plugin for Iron Gods? I'd like to second Reign of Winter.

Last time I checked the subscription cost was a bit less than that for a case. $280 for the case and another $10 for the extra gargantuan mini after the discount was applied. Of course shipping is on top of that.

This. I wholeheartedly agree that this book looks like a great bridge from the Paizo Beginner Game to the Core game or as a crutch for otherwise new players to get them going if joining a much more experienced group. The bits I've seen from the book in the preview do remind me quite a bit of...

I don't really understand this. Company A open-sources a monster via a license that they themselves created (i.e. OGL). Company B then uses the monster entirely within the terms of the license that the monster was released. Your reaction is to boycott the competing product for what reason...

That is an interesting job posting. From the tasks associated with the position, you can really see the increasing focus on managing IP and the importance of managing third party licensees. It's also interesting that editors are classified as external rather than internal relationships. Are...

In my local gaming store, the 5E books have certainly been edging out Pathfinder in terms of shelf space, but I'm not sure how well they have been moving. I keep seeing the same number of books, most of which are the Tiamat adventures and starter sets, every week so unless he's restocking...
