No problem, I can see how you'd feel that way. The caveat of 'the GM may need to softball for new players' is a reasonable one.

Back in December, I ran "God's Market Gamble" for an enthusiastic group of college students as their introduction to PFS, to Pathfinder, and to Golarion.
There were a lot of side discussions, about the establishment of the in-world Pathfinder Society Grand Lodge, about the nature of the gods and the Starstone, about Absalom's various districts, about the Heresies of Man. I thought it worked reasonably well as an introductory adventure, and the players ended up knowling a lot more about the campaign setting. But that made the session go long.

Yes, he didn't seem to hear me the first time.

That sounds like it was an awesome session! Of course, not everyone cares about the lore of the game but I think the extra time spent was a good investment for your group. Hopefully you will get to have more sessions with them.

Humm... never played (as a player) any of these before.
I'm pretty new to GMing for PFS and do realize it is quite different from homebrewing. (Less control.)
I may just give Frostfur Captives a try. Thanks!
