I'm very excited about the new store! Some of the tagging is a little lacking (searching for "plane" doesn't present Planar Adventures at all in the results), but being able to manage subscriptions is a big plus! I also *thought* that I had a Lost Omens subscription, but didn't see it listed in my subscriptions, so I "ordered" it again.
(Side note on that: I would love some new planar content beyond the elemental planes! Planar cosmology, travel between planes, denizens of outer plans, transitive planes, etc., I can't get enough!)
However, I don't remember those inside page previews on the old site. I'm buzzing with excitement for this month's Lost Omens release!

Can't wait to get this! Aside from the pre-Remaster core books and Bestiaries, Dark Archive is the only 2e rulebook that I haven't picked up yet (skipping some that have since been remastered)!
(I would however love to eventually replace Secrets of Magic and Book of the Dead with remasters or new books with some of the same content.)

Very exciting, I'm looking forward to see what's included and getting this!

Why is "Sidecart" the default assumption? and why isn't there a manual way to change that? why do we have to send a separate email to have it moved from sidecart to "Just send it right away"?
When you talk about a manual way to change that, do you mean during checkout, or afterwards once you've placed the order and it's in your sidecart?
If you mean the former, then you can change the shipping method to a specific method on the shipping page instead of just being with the next subscription order. If you mean the latter, yeah, it is a bit annoying to have to submit a ticket to manage your sidecart. That's something that I hope gets addressed with the upcoming store tech upgrades.

Having now gotten this product (but not having played, so I won't yet leave a review), I can agree with a lot of the points made before. I don't want to go in too hard on it, because most everything I'd say has already been said and acknowledged by Paizo (and I can understand that tariffs make things difficult), but still want to share my thoughts.
One of the biggest issues with this product is the mismatch between how it's marketed and what it is. Paizo is known for the quality of their (dry/wet/permanent-erasable) Flip-Mats. Getting a paper poster map (even if it does feel particularly high-quality for a poster) is then disappointing and feels misleading when it's advertised as a Flip-Mat.
While I do prefer pawns, I don't hate the tokens in a self-contained adventure. The 3/4" size for all creatures is definitely a bit small but it sounds like products designed in the future will have this addressed.
The handouts are pretty flimsy (I'm happy that I got this as a subscription, so I have the PDF and can reprint them on cardstock). Based purely on the description and (arbitrary) expectations, and ignoring the cost to manufacture and import, I'd have expected the handouts to feel like the item and NPC cards, and for those item/NPC cards to be like the tarot-style Monster Core Battle Cards.
The box *is* thinner (in dimensions, not cardboard thickness) than I had expected based on other comments and the product image, but that's not a bad thing shelf-space-wise (though it is still about 3/4 empty).
I don't want this to come across as just negativity, I've already had a read through the first chapter and I'm excited to play! But I do hope to see these issues fixed in future Deluxe Adventures after Dawn of the Frogs.

I've previously had similar issues with 0-size files, no matter how many times I tried the "Trouble Downloading" button. The next day I did the same again, and it worked fine.

I'm fine waiting, but I'd appreciate a response. I've also got a minor sidecart-related ticket open from a week ago (trying to get an item removed so that I can order it as part of starting a subscription). From a previous ticket, the CS Lead is out-of-office through tomorrow. I don't know how big Paizo's CS team is, but I'd assume that this is contributing to the delay in hearing back so I'm not too concerned yet.

Did something break in an update to the files for this item? It seems to have been last updated today but, when I try to download, it shows as being a 181 byte file in the My Downloads section of my account. When I download it, it has a size of 0.
