    Pathfinder 2E Release Day Second Edition Amazon Sales Rank

    From my experience, you're right that fewer people will buy a DM book, but not that much. The DMG and monster manual don't have that big of a drop compared to the PBH in the Amazon list either. Are D&D player buying behavior that much different than Pathfinder? I don't think the comparable books...

    You are right, and I was wrong on who wrote the quote. I've added an edit to my post. My fault for any confusion.

    Pathfinder 2E Release Day Second Edition Amazon Sales Rank

    I'm going to reprint what (someone else) wrote when on Aug 16 the core rulebook was at 11 on Amazon's Best Fantasy Gaming list and the Bestiary was at 23 (see post #106 in this thread for the full text).

    I don't think you can say it's stabalized yet. In the past week it's gone up and down anywhere from 1900 to over 3000 and back in the sales rank. That's a lot of swing. Look at it like the stock market where it's never monotonic one way or the other. It'll still be some weeks before we know what...

    Amazon isn't the whole story, but the trend is important more than the number itself. Unless someone does release all of the info, the Amazon numbers are a good proxy, like Mona wrote on Redditt. The actual number isn't so important as the trend and the change. In this case, because of the...

    Pathfinder 2E Release Day Second Edition Amazon Sales Rank

    Same, although the questuon for me is whether it's sustainable and are the sales at the level it needs. I'm seeing some similarities to TSR at the end of 2nd ed. While Paizo does not have the crazy number of campaigns like TSR did, I wonder if the sales are enough to support what they are...

    Pathfinder 2E Release Day Second Edition Amazon Sales Rank

    It's interesting to see the numbers since this post. Years ago, when I'd talk to game store owners, they'd mention trends with hardcover books like the PF2 is seeing now: big initial bump then a dramatic drop a month or two out. I wonder if Mona thinks this is bad since he said he saw the book...
