[QUOTE="JeffB, post: 4818895, member: 518"] I'd say it's fairly obvious that PF's Adventure Paths have been successful and Paizo puts out a quality product. I checked out some materials (the monsters book, a couple of the PF adventures. as well as the Golarion setting book) locally and they were very well done, though they did not capture my interest. For my own part I sub'ed back when there was only THE Dragon, and Dragon mags. Then laid off the mags for many years (due to being out of gaming) until the last year or two of 2E. Re-subbed to Dragon, and then to Dragon & Dungeon for the first few years of 3E's existence into 3.5. 3.x has it's own sort of flavor and caters to certain styles of gaming/gamers I cannot relate to/with, and so I found the magazines/adventures far less useful/entertaining over time cmpared to the 2E years I subbed. So they got dropped. As for the APs, and subscribing, I'm not a fan of the format regardless of system. I don't play 3.X /PF so defintely would not buy/subscribe to one of those, nor would I buy one for S&W, S&S, BFRPG, or 4E( D&D games I love) The fact that the current DDI version of Dungeon is half adventure path each month is another nail in the coffin of why I won't sub (the others being WOTC just generally unable to produce adventure material I like/use , but mostly the lack of VTT). Bottom line- I like variety, and am not a fan of long drawn out adventure campaigns/story arcs- I def prefer the pulp short story, or novella route ala REH - smaller, non related (except for perhaps the recurring villian) adventures (I'm also not a fan of the old school Mega Dungeons ala Zagyg/GH either).
