I asked for an update on the announcement blog back in November and got zero response... Not looking good

Also Remastered should be a must by now :D

Well literally yes: any future Paizo publications will be under the ORC license as opposed to OGL and will need to be remastered by default. I saw James Jacobs mention elsewhere that part of the reason Gatewalkers got the remaster treatment was because it had relatively few OGL monsters etc that needed overhauling, and that the same bears true for SoG.

Some hastily cobbled together supporting evidence of SoG's popularity (although I'm sure Paizo will have by far the most important data - book sales):

GM and player surveys putting SoG as easily the most popular AP

The discord thread for SoG has over 33,000 posts - this is in comparison to most AP threads having an average of 1,000-2,000 posts. Abomination Vaults, a highly popular AP which predates SoG significantly, has less than half of the posts with 14,000 at present.

It's well documented by now that Season of Ghosts is a gigantic f%+#ing hit.

Given that it's now formally announced that Gatewalkers is getting the compilation/remaster treatment, can we expect the same for SoG? I would personally relish a fully remastered update of this amazing AP.

Having read over this, I also find that there is no mention of having 4 skills checks as part of each contest. Great to have clarification here though.

Have just finished reading through Let the Leaves Fall - delighted to see it's as well put together as book 1, really can't wait to start running it.

Wondering what people's thoughts are on Zhi Hui revealing the nature of

AP plot:
the mindscape
?

To me it seems somewhat anticlimactic to have such a fundamentally reality-altering reveal just be delivered in dialogue. Would be interested to hear if anyone has any thoughts on a more dramatic or cinematic way of revealing the information to the party.

As an aside: I can't overstate my excitement to start running this. Such an amazing AP so far.

I'm currently playing a level 6 infernal sorcerer through book 2 of Hell's Vengeance. I'm not hugely familiar with a lot of the lore/setting/mechanics (either this campaign or Pathfinder generally) so today I've just been looking ahead at ways to go with the build as I level, researching feats, prestige classes, and other such fun things. I'm thinking of going prestige into Diabolist and take a load of Damnation feats, for flavour.

I came across the spell Create Soul Gem and have been doing a bit of reading on The Soul Trade. It seems to apply exclusively to demons but it got me wondering about devils. Would a contract devil, or other LE outsiders, accept souls of defeated NPCs for trade? Or just as gifts to help gain favours? Would they value them at all?

Are there any other interesting uses of soul gems? I'm intrigued by the idea of taking the souls of all the LG Iomedeans my party will kill along the course of the campaign, and trading them to eternal damnation.
