The biggest Polish RPG website - POLTER.PL published a review of PFRPG, giving it 9,5/10 points. Pathfinder is slowly making its way into Polish market, Paizo products are finally available ... good times !
The review is in Polish, so in case you can speak our strange language you can hop over HERE to read the review.
The reviewer holds the book in very high regard. He is somewhat baffled by the lack of Golarion-specific info (Polish RPGs have grown up on Warhammer RPG and WoD, so they are used to having campaign setting info in the core rulebook), but he concludes that if one is looking for a heroic fantasy ruleset and 4ed doesn't float the boat, you can't go wrong with Pathfinder.
And I do agree with that ! :)

Not that great. Polish gamers got spoiled in 90s and early 00s with many Polish language editions - first Warhammer RPG, later oWoD and finally D&D. Ever since, they don't buy English books much, except weridos such as myself :)
Unfortunately, the biggest publishers turned their backs on RPGs - WFRP 2ed got only half of the books translated, D&D 3.5 stopped halfway as well (basically, they got the core 3.0 books and FR out), nWoDs release scheudule is laughable and 4ed just got translated, except that the only PHB and DMG are out, and MM will come "sometime later".
On the plus side, there are a lot of independent and smaller RPGs coming out (Savage Worlds just in).
A translated version is available here
Google translator wins this thread :)
Not the easiest of reads, but the points come across. Google Translator is awesome though.
One line I thought was funny:
"Breeds that can incarnate in the sessions of the players are apparently identical to those that gave us the disposal of the authors of the third edition D & D (yes, they are gnomes.)"
The authors of 3E D&D are gnomes?! That explains a lot!
;-)
YAY! Finally the market aroun Czech republic widens a little. Local shops are still 4E only when it comes to d20. This opens up whole lot of new possibilities. Go Poland, go PFRPG! ^^
