Just to add I too haven't had any email confirming that the order has arrived. I don't know if I am supposed to have had it as the technical details of the ordering system are deeply mysterious to me. Still seems like I may be missing something as some people appear to already have the pdf. Sorry if I'm wasting your time cosmo I just figure better safe than sorry.

Just found it. I really have to learn to look before posting. Thanks though.

Hi there. This is probably jumping the gun a bit but I am wondering about my order. I received the email saying that it would be sent in the next week last monday but I haven't had the email saying that the stuff has been sent. I only bring this up because most other people seem to have already got their pathfinder emails and I normally get the email confirmation and pdf quite early on. Having said that this is the first time it has been a combined shipping with gamemastery modules.
I suspect I am probably jumping the gun a bit but do you know if anything has gone wrong or when it is likely to be sent? Thanks for any help you can give.

I am not a big fan of the idea of leaving vast areas undeveloped just for the sake of giving the DM a bit more free reign. At the end of the day as a DM you should feel copletely free to alter whatever you want in your own campaign. I just don't think that there is that much need for it. Plus you've already done a good job with the world of pathfinder and I have a lot of faith that that will continue so I say fill in the map. If I don't like it I'll change it rather than demand you leave me an area to be creative myself.
(It may be worth noting that I am a bit of a lazy DM so I do have an alterior motive for my opinion)

I do like the Kyle's art in the foreword but was not an enormous fan of the cartoony art later in the book. I have nothing against the artist but I ust don't think it helped the book. I agree that the sandpoint character art wasn't great. While I did like the art in the main section more (paticularly liked the picture of elf ranger) I still didn't think it really suits pathfinder.
I've always preferred more realistic art for D&D, your imagination is already stretched greatly by the game it is nice to have a realistic looking frame of reference. With the more cartoony look I feel like it just requires more suspension of disbelief. After all that isn't a picture of a person it is clearly a cartoon rendering of them. With the more realistic art this isn't a problem. Just my opinion, but I will be glad to have kyle do the art work for the foreword. Just would prefer that style of art to be a bit less prevelent in the rest of pathfinder which from the sound of James Jacobs it will be.

I agree I think an art gallery would be a great addition to the website. I find the art gallery really helps sell me on a product. The main reason I haven't brought many of the new WotC adventures is because of the lackluster art work either there is not enough of it or it is black and white. I think it would help sell the books to those who maybe are still undecided.
