This is not an edition war. Don't delete this thread. It is positive advice. And it would be wise to follow the advice of someone who actually plays the game, not someone who is paid to design a game but doesn't play it. Either because they don't have time or they actually are no longer fans of the game.
Paizo publishes very nice adventures. Very high quality art and organization.
Wizards of the Coast should hire them to do all the publishing.
There is one thing that both Paizo and Wizards can do before publishing any book. All the adventure modules and accessories should be play tested once by fans who actually play Dungeons and Dragons 5th Edition now as a hobby. Just once, and the fans can submit their corrections to the authors.
I have seen some very poor quality products come out in the last decade. When you look at them, you can see all the cancellations, discontinuations and disappointment. But this is justified. Some of these products are not professional. Not organized. Poor artwork. Poor storyline. Not tested by authors first. A very weak and lazy effort.
But what Wizards has done is spent a few years with the fans and have come up with a very workable game system. It is better and more functional than 3.5. It allows for manageable high level play.
I think that Paizo should offer free conversions to 5E of all of its books and modules in partnership with Wizards. This can be a source of 5E adventures.
I have been very happy with the response of Wizards and Paizo over the years to our advice. I think they should continue to follow it.
