Sorry, what? The Paizo-hosted PRD still exists in "legacy mode", so literally nothing has been lost. Also, said Paizo-hosted PRD is lacking massive quantities of what is actually, really, truly "official", and is therefore demonstrably inaccurate. Adherence to the state-of-the-game has increased dramatically by shifting to AoN.
The search and filter features have been removed and they are no longer updating the site with the material that is still being published. I do agree that the more I use AoN I am pleased with this his site, but again this is about Paizo not maintaining their own.
Sorry, what? You opened with a specific statement and topic, and I'm straining to see what this paragraph has to do with that topic.
It further reflects Paizo's desire to distance themselves from their 1st edition of Pathfinder.
Sorry, what? Paizo didn't have the resources to maintain the PRD internally, and embraced the community-driven AoN site, and that's evidence that Paizo has forgotten the community? This suggestion - I gently suggest - is illogical.
No, not illogical as you suggest here, but more emotional as you mentioned further down. Paizo had a unique opportunity to maintain and continue to update the PRD site with the remaining 1st edition material still being published, but they simply chose not to. I see that as an unfortunate decision on their part.
"Paizo didn't have the resources to maintain the PRD internally."
It's absurd to believe that a company can't maintain their own site, but a private individual can? To that I must respond in kind, Sorry, what?
Sour grapes, yeah a little. Emotional, yep. But as you mentioned it is in good hands with AoN.
Thanks for hearing my ramblings and taking the time to respond.
