Not User Friendly Anymore


Website Feedback


I don't know if the Paizo Web designer has been informed of this already or not but the new Web design really isn't user friendly at all. I've tried to get to Paizo pathfinder products & it just keeps taking me to the same empty page where I can only keep selecting a pathfinder link which goes no where. Finding this forum page to post this was honestly just luck by clicking different links on the home page not knowing what would lead to where. In the original Web design there was a list of links that clearly stated what they were for & so it was by far more user friendly than it is now. Hopefully the Web site can be redesigned to be more user friendly in the future because as it stands right now I can't find any product information besides the ones I've already paid for & are in my downloads list.


There was a lot of talk after the redesign and I'd gotten the impression there were more changes/fixes in the works, but I haven't heard anything in awhile.


They’re making a lot more use of dropdown menus now.

If you’re on the page I’m thinking of (Was it this one?), there’s a series of three horizontal bars on the upper right corner of the page. Clicking that should take you to the various pathfinder areas of the website.


I'm actually at the point where I hate coming here.

The user experience is so bad, I just stay away except for when I have to download a product.


Of course this happened at night, probably before someone went home for the day and didn't stay to check on what they did, so the entire Pathfinder forum tree will probably be down until sometime tomorrow.

I have to agree completely... Is it just me or the Advice Forum just disappeared?

None of the forum links are working. If you have a link to a specific thread, or can get one by scrolling down the page from the top level forum page, you can get to it, but you can’t get to “Customer Service” or “Pathfinder RPG.”


Nope it's all gone. It's there if you can side link to it via someone's profile but all direct links are gone ugh.

It's there for me. On Firefox.

Pathfinder RPG, which I got to by clicking the link at the top of the forums page.

Different on different platforms? Something about how you're getting there?

Removed a post and locking. While we welcome constructive criticism, calling for employees to be fired is completely unhelpful and inappropriate commentary.

If you're looking for free Pathfinder RPG downloads, you may navigate there from the Pathfinder menu, under Roleplaying Game in "Downloads." The link for it is here: https://paizo.com/pathfinder/rpg/downloads
