How about a pawn box of multiple copies of the various low level baddies, the ones most likely to form armies? Like a couple of dozen kobolds or goblins, etc. </blockquote><p>Even a single extra •sheet• of pawns, if carefully designed, would solve SO many problems. Focus on low-levels (where the most play occurs) and a mix of pawns that could serve as good proxies (say, zombies for corporeal undead). Something like:
<p>4 zombies
<br />
4 skeletons
<br />
2 wolves
<br />
2 mediums spiders
<br />
4 giant rats
<br />
2 ghosts
<br />
4 hobgoblins
<br />
4 orcs
<br />
2 oozes
<br />
4 heavily armored humanoids
<br />
...etc.</p>
<p>I get that there will always be a "just one more sheet', but this particular sheet would be a HUGE boon to utility — especially with the pawn line becoming much smaller in scope. A single, evergreen box could met 99% of the need.</p>
<p>I'm really hoping the third time is the charm for this (otherwise truly excellent) product.</p>Pagan priest wrote:bugleyman wrote: itschase wrote: I hope there will be smaller sets of pawns with just the new creatures introduced in the Monster Core series as I already have the pawn sets from the 3 Bestiaries.

<p>Consider: My car key fob has words on it too. But I don't need to see or read the item in order to use it to unlock my car door from 30 feet away. Something that would be considered quite magical to people in 1985.

</blockquote><p>First of all, if you weren't being obtuse, then a question about "real magic" only leaves snarky. So stop being snarky, it was uncalled for.
<p>Second, I agree with everything else you wrote. If you believe that I disagree with you about scrolls, you're mistaken.</p>
<p>What I was objecting to was the implication that if reading WERE required, one would not need light to do it. </p>
<p>This was implied when someone asserted that people fumble for things in the dark in the real world, and someone else (you?) replied with a comment about people being unable to walk on water in the real world.

<p>For a highly elastic good, the volume is <i>almost solely dependent upon the price</i>. Set the price too high and volume — and therefore revenue — craters. Counter intuitively, <i>higher</i> prices leads to <i>lower</i> revenue. Worse, if you fail to understand this relationship, you are tempted to increase the price again in an attempt to course correct. Of course doing so only winds up driving down volume further, and so on.</p>
<p>Now take a look at PFS scenarios. As a result of repeated price hikes, they have gone from $4 to $9 at a pace that greatly exceeds inflation (in a period of historically high inflation!). Yet in the midst of such a rapid price escalation, Paizo has still had to cut back the production schedule for PFS scenarios.</p>
<p>To be clear, this is not concern trolling. I genuinely want PFS to succeed.

For a very elastic good like a RPG adventure, the way to do that is to move rightward along the demand curve by <b>lowering</b> price (and therefore spreading the high fixed costs over the largest quantity possible).
<p>Of course this could be taken to a ridiculous extreme ("Make the price $.01!"), but that is always the case. I would argue that, at $9, a PFS scenario is clearly a poor value compared to Paizo's other adventure products, meaning that if those other products are priced correctly — and I believe they are — the PFS scenario is priced above the the point at which it would generate maximum profits.</p>Dancing Wind wrote:"marginal cost of production" is a pretty useless metric to use for digital pricing.
It is actually particularly relevant, and this is why: nearly all of the costs are fixed, which means that each marginal sale is almost all profit, which in turn means the way to maximize profit is to sell the largest number of units possible (i.e. increase quantity supplied). For a very elastic good like a RPG adventure, the way to do that is to move rightward along the demand curve by...bugleyman2024-01-25T16:56:18ZRe: Forums/Paizo: General Discussion: Paizo Blog: Paizo Pricing & Sustainability Updatebugleymanhttps://paizo.com/community/blog/v5748dyo6sifa&page=3?Paizo-Pricing-Sustainability-Update#1192024-01-28T14:54:45Z2024-01-24T21:32:03Z<p>I'm late to the party, and while I do not find the prices increases to be unreasonable in almost all cases, $9 is completely non-tenable for a PFS scenario.

<p>Not only do scenarios compare very poorly value-wise at $9 to all of your other adventure offerings, but somewhat counter-intuitively, raising prices can often drive down volume, decreasing revenue — and ultimately, profit. This is <i>especially</i> true in the case of highly discretionary purchases, such as an RPG adventure. Furthermore, a PDF has a very low marginal cost of production, meaning any revenue you realize from the an increase in sales volume associated with a lower price is almost pure profit. </p>
<p>There were already issues with the financial viability of PFS scenarios which were not corrected by previous price increases, as evidenced by the reduced scenario production schedule. Why double-down on a strategy that has already clearly failed?</p>
<p>Of course, all of this also completely ignores the promotional value of PFS, which as a former VL I know to be significant...if admittedly difficult to quantify.</p>
<p>Sorry to vent, but this is exactly the wrong way to right the financial ship with respect to PFS scenarios. I hope you course correct before you draw all the wrong conclusions and end up killing the scenario line altogether.</p>I'm late to the party, and while I do not find the prices increases to be unreasonable in almost all cases, $9 is completely non-tenable for a PFS scenario.

<p>I'm actually a former VL, so I'm pretty familiar with convention support.</p>
<p>However, I stand by my argument that $9 is not a viable price for a FPS scenario. There is nothing "sustainable" about it; if anything, it is exactly the opposite.

<p>Not only do scenarios compare very poorly value-wise at $9 to other (Paizo and non-Paizo) adventure offerings, <b>but they are very likely to generate •less• revenue, not more, than they would at a lower price.</b> Paizo has priced themselves out of the market, which will kill volume — and therefore revenue. There were already issues with the health of PFS content that were not corrected by previous price increases, as evidenced by the reduced scenario production. Additional price increases are likely to make things worse, not better.</p>
<p>All of which also completely ignores the promotional value of PFS, which as a former VL I know to be significant...if admittedly difficult to quantify. </p>

And why? What have I missed?</p>
<p>I hope it wasn't as simple as comparing the cost of production vs. revenue on a per scenario basis, because such an analysis misses the point. Not only would it ignore the promotional value of PFS, but it (more importantly) ignores price elasticity of demand. As with a grounding in economics know, increasing the prices of something can •reduce• the total revenue depending on the shape of the demand curve. I would posit that the demand for PFS scenarios is likely very elastic, meaning a $9 may have an effect exactly opposite to that which was intended. At $9 for a scenario, overall revenue per scenario is likely to •decrease•, making scenarios completely financially nonviable. Furthermore, the price of the scenario is borne almost exclusively by GMs, which is the last group you want to dissuade from participating in PFS.</p>
<p>I sincerely hope I've misunderstood the situation, because if I haven't this looks like a bad misstep on Paizo's part, and one that seems likely to further damage a campaign I rather enjoy participating in on occasion. :-(</p>So...when did the price of scenarios increase to $9?

<p>Now don't get me wrong. There are lots of things I like about 4E. But when push comes to shove and I have to choose a rules system to use for my home game its Pathfinder. 4E may work for you, I am not criticizing. But for me, its Pathfinder.</p>

<p>•••• If Necromancer Games isn't testimonial enough, just speak with the boys at Troll Lord games. They'll tell you about bus rides past the old TSR building, and gaming on Gary's front porch - and while the core siege engine mechanic of Castles & Crusades was a preference due to its kinship to first edition D&D, they'll all attest that Monte's game was also carried the legacy of D&D. The fundamental difference between the directions of C&C and D&D in the 2000s was either the progress toward complexity and options (a sign of the times, and this was Monte's D&D), versus a retrograde to the Prime Attribute system and simplicity of making your character in 15 minutes and starting to play (and this was Chenault's D&D).</p>
<p>In context, and context is king, Gary's rebuttle to the progressvie D&D of the 2000s was still true today of most systems that carry a complex ratio of subsystems along with the core mechnic. Gary, the father of D&D, knew how to straddle the line between ambiguity (which caused tension at the game table) and the use of rules (that served to provide the illusion of a game). This type of game has evolved.... </blockquote><p>Preach on, brother! Pathfinder is "real" D&D!Pax Veritas wrote:ProfessorCirno wrote:
