Consolidated Paizocon news thread

[Gorbacz]

...is not yet a thing and it makes me want to eat a turtle. Please, think of the turtle and post update on new products/projects here.

[Zaister]

Nothing much to consolidate so far. Hmm.

[Nullpunkt]

I'll share what I scooped up from various sources:

New 2018 AP: War for the Crown

Pathfinder Society Season 9: Year of Factions' Favor

Starfinder Society Season 1: Year of the Scoured Stars

New Pathfinder Adventures game by Obsidian: Rise of the Goblins

New Pathfinder Battles miniatures: Maze of Death

Pathfinder Online not dead, but now run by Paizo instead of Goblinworks

[Zaister]

Interestingly, the PACG Rise of the Goblins slide has Steam and GOG logos on it.

[Gorbacz]

Some from myself:

Shifter iconic is apparently a Shoanti woman.

Starfinder doesn't use Hit Dice and apparently goes further south than "Pathfinder with lasers" as far as the ruleset is concerned.

War of the Crown is the much-awaited Taldor intrigue AP.

Cosmo has a twin brother, Zosmo.

[Zaister]

I think Starfinder still has hit dice, but they are "hidden" and demphasized as a game mechanic. Besides that, it is different, but familiar.

Free Captains and Hellknights will be to factions in Starfinder. Source on twitter

Edit: Thanks Kalindlara, I changed the UE price to the one listed here on paizo.com

[Kalindlara]

Mr. Mona said that the UE price was incorrect (I'm assuming it's higher). Just a heads-up. ^_^

No, from the Twitter it appears that they only gave additional info about already known hardbacks. The only product newly announced was the February 2018 adventure path.

I'm not expecting ant major announcements until the Pathfinder AP seminar 10a Pacific, Starfinder Q&A seminar, 10a, and the Future of Paizo seminar at 1p.

We have an image of the Shifter iconic on Facebook. I'm not sure about its gender or race.

We got the Covers of Alien Archives and BotD as well!

I'm 79% sure she's a Shoanti human lady.

No tattoos though. I think Osirioni.

Definitely human or half-elf.

Unfortunately, I think that's unlikely. Know Direction will have a reasonably decent range, but they'll likely be put up only after Ryan gets home from the Con. The Hotel's wifi is ok, but probably not up to uploading every single seminar.

Here's what I gleaned from the banquet and some other interactions...

They did mention that it was getting a PC version, and that purchased content would be cross-platform.
