[QUOTE="ReshiIRE, post: 8787352, member: 7031231"] Theoretically, the reason the Beginner Box and Abomination Vaults were as great as they were was because of the feedback and criticism directed at those early Adventure Paths; for the Beginner Box especially, it may have been a blessing to have had those early rough patches to allow them to know what to avoid for an introductary adventure. It is somewhat a chicken and the egg scenario.

The balance issues of earlier APs might actually be a lesser issues than the thematic issues of Extinction Curse , which I have heard does not stick super well to its circus theme, and Agents of Edgewatch - which was quite controversal in the community* as it launched very soon after George Floyd was murdered by police officers and presented the police as capable of no wrong and able to straight up murder suspects.
