Pathfinder Roleplaying Game Superscriber

Two points. Firstly as a recent subscriber it sounds like I’m about to lose my hard-won Paizo advantage 15% discount (“hard won” because it currently is not working properly despite many emails to customer services) until I’ve spent a load more money at the Paizo store. This feels like a serious debuff to me.

Secondly, I’m not convinced this will get more people into the society stuff. I for one would definitely spend gold on discounts on main line products and completely ignore society scenarios, even with the skewed values you’re showing. We play adventure paths and don’t really need random extra short adventures… the free society downloads for having four subs already mean very little to me, it’s the discount I’m after.

But a REAL benefit would be some way to offset the eye-watering shipping costs, which absolutely discourage me from buying direct from Paizo to the UK. Already you can get books cheaper from UK based websites than direct from Paizo, even before shipping is added. The only reason I’m buying from Paizo direct is to get the PDFs included with the subscription and I’m telling myself the crazy shipping costs are actually the cost of the “free” pdf.

Came here to say this too - my group buys the PDFs and I pick up the pocket version a few months later. I would love to be able to have a subscription that bundled the two - PDF as soon as available and then the pocket version when that's released.
