<p>Not a fan of the Absalom ideas brought up here, as I think Absalom is the most boring and blandest place in all of Golarion. And far too big for a meaningful city campaign, I think, too.</p>I think #100 will be mostly a normal book but with a special foreword.

Varisia is cool and all, but in many respects, it has a lot of familiar elements you see in other settings, such as Faerun and Greyhawk. That's its whole point. Nothing wrong with that, mind you. But, I can always get the familiar from plenty of other DnD settings. With places like Vudra and Arcadia, those type of settings don't exist, at least, not in the amount that a setting like Varisia does. So, I'd love to see more light on those places since it would be something new, fresh and exciting. maybe leave Varisia to modules or PFS.

That and I was a little disappointed that Jade Regent did not go to Tian Xia until the last three books, but I suppose I can see why you guys did that (Ameiko being a liked NPC, invoking the "grand journey" feeling, letting players who aren't familiar with Tian Xia be eased into it better).James Jacobs wrote:Turns out, I love Varisia too.
