The idea of Starfinder Society organized play has come up, well, every time James Sutter has spoken about Starfinder in public. But, it's hard because doing a full OP program requires doubling the efforts of the current OP timea, as they're hard at work on Pathfinder Society play.
So, the question is: how to allow and enable people to publicly play Starfinder and play characters shared between regions and tables.
I think the answer is the Adventure Path line.
PFS already partially sanctions AP volumes. Instead of just sanctioning single chapters of APS, sanction the entire line.
Design the adventures so the chapters are smaller, and can be condensed into five-hour play slots. So larger dungeons have breaks, there are fewer filler encounters, and the like.
Which also helps play outside of organized play, since the adventure is easily broken into sessions.
And could allow an AP volume to be written by 2-3 people, each handling separate chunks.
That way the organized play staff just need to get a player's guide to the campaign written, with character generation rules.
If there's interest, more staff can be added and original modules commissioned. Or, at the least, convention exclusives. But in the meantime, people can play and the game gets visibility.
Thoughts?
