There will be an enormous amount of this type of material in Pathfinder itself, in the Pathfinder Chronicles line, and in the Pathfinder Companion. More to the point, there most likely be follow-up Pathfinder RPG books with new rules additions, expansions, etc. Stuff like classes and alternate races and the like.

We first need to make sure that the core foundation is solid, but we won't stop there.

Clearly it's still more than a year out, but at what frequency do you expect to publish splat books for the RPG line? One thing I loathed about the 3.5 cycle was the sheer volume of stuff coming out of WotC. Made it nearly impossible to keep up as a DM. Additionally, will your non-core books be going through open phases like we see with the alpha rpg? Will the content be OGL? Hopefully the answer to both of those is "Heck yeah!" :)

Clerics can burn spell for cure or inflict. Maybe wizards and sorcerers should be able to burn spells for straight up damage. This would require a few new spells|feats|class features and I would see it as a strictly optional thing. It would be nice to be a wizard and say "oops, I don't need fog cloud right now. Burn for 2d4 <x> damage".

I like the PF:RPG logo a lot. The colours are just right.

So, I've been looking at J3 for a couple of days on and off and JUST noticed that one of the monsters is a shoggoth (I got stuck on the flying monkey, which is also rad. :D) Holy oozing deaths, batman. That thing is a challenge and the art is great.

Very cool mod and super cool monsters, Wolfgang!

Rad cover!
Also, yay for more Kane!

Yosh!
More Stark!

I ordered Black God's Kiss but ended up with City of the Beast. This would be alright if I didn't already have a copy of City of the Beast. :)
Let me know what I need to do to remedy the situation.

Good to see some press for Pathfinder outside of Paizo's site. :)
End rating was 4 for style (knocked for some of the images and the b&w chapter) and 5 for substance.

Will this be available in pdf form for people who do not buy the entire treasure pack?

I've not seen anything to indicate it's been discussed, so here goes. I think it would be nice to pick up the Planet Stories books as pdfs, much like the Pathfinder and Gamemastery books. I understand rights to do this might be much trickier than the products that paizo has written, but it would be nice. Frankly, I don't want every announced book in paperback, but I would buy a pdf for 6 or 8 bucks of many of them.

Another thing that would be nice is a downloadable sample chapter for each book. Seeing what the author's style is like before reading them is "good".

Btw, I picked up City of the Beast at Gencon and have found the typefaces and pagesetting to be excellent, and the cover is sooo very cool. Moorcock's not half-bad either. ;)

Since the catalogs you send out with your products are not listed on the site, I can't give you feedback there about them. Anyway, they're well laid out and always fun to look at. Whoever does your graphic design is money.
I do actually have some questions.
1) What is the font used in the interior of the catalog in the product descriptions. e.g. for W1 it is used in the following passage: "Fallow and abandoned for years, Bloodsworn Vale..."
2) What is the font used for the text "Pathfinder" on the front of the catalog?
3) Are those fonts available for purchase/download somewhere?

Thanks much!

Marvel has put out a trade paperback version of the first few issues of the Ptolus comic book. I already bought it from Amazon 'cause I couldn't get it here *cough*, but it is really cool and would be nice to see in the Paizo store.

The handy search revealed nothing immediately relevant to the question, so here it is.
Will Paizo be providing anything like the dungeon downloads that had player handouts/art/unmarked maps for gamemastery (and pathfinder) products? In looking through D0 and D1, I notice the maps (at least) would be nice to have free of numbers and text without going to ye olde photoshoppe. Wouldn't mind an art dump in a downloadable pdf, too. Oh yeah, very nice-looking modules and D0 (only skimmed D1) read very well. Thanks much for any and all answers.

Apologies if this has been hashed and re-hashed.

I've recently been reading through old Dungeon issues and ran across 106's "The Black Egg". I have a couple of pages left to read, but I found the adventure quite interesting. In particular, I found the NPC orginization in the adventure quite interesting. My question is, are there more adventures/resources that feature the Black Covenant, or was it a one-time appearance?
