Due to divorce from OGL, what becomes of Abjuration, Conjuration, Divination, Enchantment, Evocation, Illusion, Necromancy, and Transmutation?
This thread has a discussion of the changes to the Wizard class
Remastered Wizard Reveals

Will this book (or maybe the GM Core, or the Monster Core) be clarifying a bit on which creatures can and cannot bleed?
RAW it’s specifically living creatures with blood that need it to live, but then some creatures that should obviously be immune to bleed are flagged as immune, which then raises the question of what the RAI is.
Are leshies immune to bleed? They have no blood, like plants and fungus, but then the violet fungus is specifically flagged as immune to bleed. Can oozes bleed? Can an osyluth bleed? Why do constructs need immunity to bleed flagged if they also would be covered by RAW? Why don’t undead get that flag if constructs do? It’s a bleeding minefield!
Can you tell I’m very excited for all of the new ORC books? Lots of love to you all!

Any chance that Paizo will have physical/digital bundles for Pathfinder book on Demiplane like White Wolf has for their WoD books? Since Pathfinder seems to be their flagship game it would be a good incentive to sell both versions of your Pathfinder books in a bundle.
I have this question as well. What becomes of the Demiplane rules? And the character generator? Do they get updated?

The Demiplane people said they can't comment on that until they see the actual changes. They don't know yet themselves what they will do.

Yeah, I believe every other partner aside from AoN have remarked the same way: They have not seen how the new rules are presented, so they have no idea how they'll go about updating their sites and apps to reflect said changes. And even AoN has only stated they are likely to have a toggle between Core and Legacy content. There's not really a concrete plan as of yet.
Maybe once we're closer to November, the variety of partners will have a better idea of how this will all shake down.

Have to say, overall pretty hyped for the remastered, lots of good changes that I'm looking forward to have. Love the changes for the wizard schools, and the love for ranger focus spells.
I'm still having some doubt about the cleric though. The warpriest "buffs" for what is announced for me are not something great (still have to wait for the specific benefits and feats). My main problem is that I don't see the master proficiency in one weapon at level 19 a great buff, and also a fair tradeoff (with armor and fortitude prof too) for the lost of the legendary proficiency in spellcasting. The problem is not much for the trade in proficiency in the class, but compared to other spellcasters that share the "melee caster" theme; warrior muse bard and battle mystery oracle don'r sacrifice spellcasting prof for armor and weapon, and they also share a spell tradition focused on buffs and healings (one being also divine and the other occult). And since the remastered is also a way to walk away from legacy elements, it's a little weird to se the attachment to this element. Would have liked a doctrine that doesn't change the proficiencies progression, but just differentiates some unique benefits a base cleric would get (also since the champion is already the divine-themed warrior, and even maybe a future inquisitor-like divine bounded spellcaster).
But again this is just one element i don't like, at a time in which i don't have the full picture of the changes. Everything else is looking great (I'm going to love the new dragons)

We heard from Erik Mona that rogues will no longer have a complicated weapon proficiency list and will simply get all martial weapons access, and wizard similar but with all simple weapons.
Will the bard also get some variant of this clean up, or stay on its partial martial selection?
The answer to this turned out to be yes, and Warrior Muse is getting a new benefit.

Super excited for the Remaster! It seems you get to fully unleash the game under your own vision unfettered!
Could we ask if there were any familiar changes? I love the Witch changes, but the current rules does leave some concern for how a familiar focused class can successfully use their squishy familiar.
Thank you!

It sounds like the page will go live 5 minutes after the Paizo keynote address at GenCon.

Yep from what Logan was saying during Paizo Live June they are still deciding what might be in this document, either way I’m looking forward to this!

The page is live and the free Core Preview PDF is targeted to drop August 3, the first day of Gen Con.

If it's live why do I still get redirected to the Player Core page?

Have people been able to preorder these yet? I’ve tried but have been unsuccessful.
It is a bit early for our e-commerce system—one of the reasons we will move to a new one. For now you should be able to "save it for later" in your cart, or better yet, subscribe to the rulebooks line.

Aaron, can you update core remaster preview to answer this?
This needs addition of Wood and Metal
- Elemental Form (spell)
- Elemental Motion (spell)
- The Oracle's Battle mystery, with Metal
- The Druid's Leaf order, with Wood
Can I personally? No. Likewise, the Editorial Team does not have an errata for the Core Preview PDF planned. Final content will be delivered in November with the remastered Core releases!

I still want to know who decided Sorcerer isn't a core 1 class. I JUST WANT TO TALK.
Pretty sure it's because the Draconic Bloodline needs some reworking since chromatic/metallic dragons are tied to the OGL and Paizo needs extra time to get their new dragons right. Same goes for Barbarians.

Also because having two different spellcasting systems but just one class that benefits from the other one isn't the best idea for a book that's supposed to get new players into the game easily.
And yet, with Bards being in Core 1, that’s exactly what’s happened.

On a serious note:
Fighter and Rogue need to be there to provide baseline classes.They wanted a dedicated caster for each spell list, so that's: Bard, Cleric, Druid and Wizard.
As they had the Druid they wanted to include the other pet class, the Ranger.
That left one slot and they had a desire to include one of the former APG classes, so in comes the Witch and the Sorcerer gets delayed to Core 2.

Hope to see in the remastered the form spells to all have scaling with intensified effects up to 8/9/10 spell ranks. Cause right now after a form stops scaling, you are better off with choosing a different spell, which can be kinda negative to someone that likes one or some forms (thinking of animal form for example)

Weeeelllll.... darkened forest form (and the three form spells contained therein) makes me guess that form spells still have their intended level ranges of use

@Aaron - a question that was raised a couple of weeks ago while discussing Rage of Elements release. Have you been able to confirm if the PDFs for the new Core books will suffer the same image compression issues as we saw with the Rage of Elements PDF?
Yes, I have confirmed that we have been able to use our normal (pre-Rage)compression for the Player Core and GM Core.
