[QUOTE="Mistwell, post: 6618466, member: 2525"] Understood. I get that preference for one-shot adventures, and I like them sometimes as well. But others prefer the AP format, which costs less when you combine the equivalent price for one-shot adventures that add up to anything close to that page count, and they can either split out the sections of the AP they like and treat them like individual adventures, or run it as a big adventure path. It's just a matter of preference. The problem here is that for years Paizo has experimented with both formats, as has WOTC, and both reached the same conclusion using their own independent evidence of sales. Both companies were doing both, and now both have ended the one-shots except for organized play, and gone exclusively with adventure paths for sale. That tells me they both have data we don't - the APs are more cost effective for them than the individual adventures. [/QUOTE]
