Excellent!

I've read every adventure path so far, and this one was excellent. Brilliant NPCs, varied settings (while still remaining almost all urban), and an excellent plot. My only complaint would be that it wasn't initially advertised that it wouldn't be all urban. While it is almost entirely urban, don't oversell it as such. Edge of Anarchy opens the campaign brilliantly.
   
Decent rules; Roleplay still possible; Realism is dead.

Basically, what the title says. The rules are decent, if extremely different. Roleplaying is still possible depending on who is playing. The big problem, though, is that realism in the game is dead. The rules are no longer realistic, even from a "wizards and dragons" point of view.
Perhaps realism is the price of balance. If so, I'll take the realism.
   
Best D20 3rd edition game.

This, in my opinion, is the best version of D20 3rd edition released to date. One of the best RPGs I've ever seen. Streamlined without being overly simplistic or homogeneous.
   
Great art except the backs, easily solved

I think the art on the cards themselves is great, but the backs are lacking as far as suspension of disbelief. Putting them in card sleeves solves this problem well.
   
Excellent. An instant favorite.

I've been looking forward to this book for awhile and I enjoyed everything about it, but the section on the planes is by far the best. The structure makes perfect sense without everything being too uniform.
Now I can't wait for the book on the planes.
   
$10 for twelve pages that are easy to print out yourself? No thanks.

In third edition, the character sheets were excellent quality four-page, class-specific and impossible to print out at home. What does fourth edition give you? Four two-page generic sheets, not worth any price. This should be a free PDF download. Also, Wizards falsely claimed that it was 32 pages, so it loses more points there.
   
Great regional guide.

Another great supplement for the Pathfinder Chronicles line, and one that makes it easy to run the many modules set in Darkmoon Vale.
   
The ideal plague adventure.
Mon, Jul 21, 2008, 12:01 PM
In a world where magic can cure diseases, plague-based plots are hard to create. This adventure fixes that with explanations for why it can't be cured backed up by the rules. After that, the plot is great.
   
Great adventure.

This is arguably the best undead-based adventure I've seen, and many appear to agree with me -- it sold out first, and it got up to 150 pounds on Ebay. If you haven't read this, pick it up when it reprints next month.
   
An inn for every occasion

I got this out of the Treasure Chest. This is my first map pack product, and the quality and variety of the maps ensured that I will almost certainly buy the others.
   
Good, if you have good eyes.

I got this out of the Treasure Chest. The text was small and blue on a white background, but that didn't bother me much because my eyesight is good. I wouldn't recommend this to anyone with bad eyesight, but other than that it's great.
   
A great start.

Everything about this works well, from the high quality paper to the NPCs to the overall design.
   
Excellent Value

I can't believe they still had copies at this point. I bought one even though I already had the module (It's inexpensive enough that I still saved about $10) and was amazed. I've never really bought many of the GameMastery products, but I think after this, I'll be a returning customer.
   
Excellent. Buy it.

Great. All of the monsters are vastly improved. Especially the bugbears, trolls and goblins.
