Hi,
I know I'm probably in the minority here, but I want to voice my concerns. I think Paizo may be working on too many "core" products, too quickly, and they are getting out too soon.

Now, before you say the new classes/mechanics (ie words of power) are all optional and not "official" or anything, I respond: A 20-lev base class is "core" enough; and I think that -- if one gets published -- it has to be refined and balanced enough to be 100% official (think APG).

So, I'd rather have a single, well-developed hardbound book every year (or even 18 months) than the current, announced avalanche. I'm excited as everyone for the gunslinger, magus and words of power; I simply believe that they need much more playtesting to be bulletproof & a worthy addition to the system.

We already have 18 base classes, do we really need 4 more in the next 6 months? Paizo thrives because so far it's been protecting the system, that's its first and foremost mission. I cannot but fear a wotc-like devolution, and that would be much worse than waiting a few months for a new class...

thanks,
Stefano


Hi Paizo, first of all, excuse me if I'm posting in the wrong place -- I haven't been able to find a better one :)

I am a customer from Europe (Italy) and, once again, I'd like to ask about subscriptions: as many Europeans, I find the shipping rates from the US prohibitive (moreso considering taxes), so I'm buying the odd PDF here and there and some books through http://www.bookdepository.co.uk.

So far I've been happy with them, so I was wondering: why don't you just strengthen your partnership and simply use them to "funnel" through any subscription? This way I'd be able to get the PDFs as well!
I recently pre-ordered the newest hardcovers (GMG and APG) and don't feel like shelling out extra money to get the electronic formats as well...

thanks,
Stefano
