Hello Adam,

You should be able to see Lost Omens in your sidecart again.

Thanks!

I was intending to remove The Fall of Plaguestone from my sidecart since I realized it wouldn’t come with a PDF because I’m not subscribed to that line, and I accidentally removed The Lost Omens World Guide, which is a subscription product from the sidecart.

Can you help me add The Lost Omens World Guide subscription version (so it comes with a book and PDF) back to my sidecart?

I do NOT like the new layout for the action economy. It feels too much like a visual layout you'd see in a video game. (Symbols etc) Additionally it seems like it may slow down combat, but having only read so far, and not tested I cannot confirm or deny that.

I really dislike this as well.

In addition, the visual layout of feats is over-engineered and causes the class section to feel like a collection of powers rather than a description of a class. This was a major thing that 4th edition D&D did that I learned to hate.

I feel like this is something the Core Rulebook for 1st edition Pathfinder nailed with it's simple text style with bold, italics, and indentation, but towards the later supplements (especially the Strategy Guide) really started getting ugly. To me, it feels cluttered, hard to follow, and makes it come of as a video game UI rather than a book. Worst of all, it takes away from immersion into the setting. I would much prefer the book to more closely emulate something you might see in the actual game world.

I know this may not matter to many people, but the UI-style presentation just doesn't work for me.

I have two copies of the 5th printing of the Core Rulebook, both of which are falling apart at the binding after minimal use. The second one was purchased due to the binding issues of the first, but since the condition is just as bad, I have primarily been using the PDFs.

My qustion is this: Has the 6th printing resolved this issue? I do not want to purchase another book with the same binding quality as the last two, but I would like to have a copy that I feel like I can use regularly without it falling apart.
