LWD have the healthiest and most profitable relationship with Paizo. Paizo stood by them while they waited for the CM to be launched and it's only right that LWD use the launch to support and promote the system that drives the majority of their profit.
Keeping in mind that most of their $$ obviously comes from Hero Lab in the Pathfinder crowd. So i get that they won't launch until the Pathfinder stuff is ready. Pathfinder is their core supported system and they have business relationships to maintain.

Hey everyone!
I don't have a lot to report at the moment but wanted to give you a quick update anyway! We are still working with Paizo to sort out an option that works. We hope to have this resolved soon but are looking into other possibilities and options that might speed it along. I should have a more in-depth "official" update by months end. Happy Gaming! |

Well, good that they are not out of business and doing what is likely the most profitable decision for them, as we wouldn't get any updates at all if. Also what worth is an empty content market to the ppl who would like to use it? It would be dead within weeks, if there is no content to show. So I think daplunk is right and they are filling the CM with life, so there is actually some revenue to be made out of that thing. Though - personally - I wouldn't trust this CM-business case, but I hope to be wrong Join the (unofficial) Realm-Works IRC Chat: #realm-works on the Rizon Network (https://wiki.rizon.net/index.php?title=Servers) -> Browser Client: https://kiwiirc.com/client/irc.rizon.net |

I know there is a timeline for everything, but I am starting Rise of the Runelords tomorrow. Excited to get Realm Works's Content Market working so I can start using that. It will be interesting how different it is to run/prepare the game. Keep up the good work. |

Hey folks!
Paizo devs have been swamped for a while now, so we are still waiting for the last piece of the puzzle we need from them. Unfortunately, while we understand their position, we have no way of knowing how long that will take to arrive. In the meantime, we believe we have found a temporary solution that, while not perfect, may allow us to go ahead and launch the store. It will take our devs some time to implement but if it goes as planned we will have something for you next month. Please be aware, it will cause some hiccups during the purchase of Paizo items but you will still be able to purchase them with a few extra steps. I know it's not the news everyone wants to hear, it isn't the news I want to share either, but it's what we have to work with at this time and I'm doing my best to see that we get this out despite limitations. At the very least, it gives us hope! |

The truth is often not one wishes to hear... but it so much better than nothing at all.
Thank you, BJ. |
