Message: <blockquote data-quote="gamerprinter" data-source="post: 6312850" data-attributes="member: 50895">I generally believe there are many Pathfinder users of the Golarian setting, especially those playing PFS adventure material (and there are quite a lot.) Perhaps the majority of PFS users don't frequent ENWorld, thus aren't prolific posters here and not participating in this survey - which definitely skews results. And agreeing with what someone else said earlier in this thread that only a small segment of the gaming population occupy these boards, with only the hardest core GMs forming the bulk of this forum's membership. Extreme GMs generally don't use published settings relying almost entirely on homebrew solutions.As a developer of one of the published settings not included in this survey [Kaidan setting of Japanese horror (PFRPG)], I can be glad of one thing. I realized at the start that Oriental settings aren't everyone's preferred type of setting which makes it 'niche'. Since it is also a horror setting, that further makes it 'niche within niche'. Thus being Japanese horror, it is 'niche within niche within niche'. So outside the nuanced setting material, in every other way the Kaidan products exist to support Pathfinder based oriental games, and not specifically Kaidan itself. For example, while <a href="http://rpg.drivethrustuff.com/product/102482/Way-of-the-Samurai-PFRPG?term=way+of+the+samurai" target="_blank">Way of the Samurai (PFRPG)</a> is intended to be a Kaidan supplement, except for one mention at the start of that supplement, Kaidan isn't reflected again in the rest of the publication, as it was primarily designed to support samurai options in anyone's Pathfinder game, not necessarily those playing with Kaidan itself. And that product does an excellent job at doing just that.</blockquote>
