What Pathfinder Content Do You Want to See First?

[BJ]

Rob or other staff,

I know schedules are always subject to change and you can't say anything with too much certainty, but do you have a timeframe for how often you hope to see Pathfinder content released? Like, would you shoot for some fixed number of sourcebooks or adventures/modules a month?

Unfortunately, we don't have a concrete schedule at this time, but we do hope to release content of various kinds on a regular basis.

NOTHING IS SAFE TO ASSUME!

While portions of RotRL were shown, that was WAY back. Chapter 1 was done as a PROTOTYPE of how we'd be doing content in general. What we showed back then was that prototype. As with all good prototypes, it was subsequently thrown away.

Yes, RotRL is high on our list of stuff to release. However, I'm pretty sure that RotRL will NOT be in the FIRST wave of content we release. That said, I'm also pretty sure that it will be in the SECOND wave of content we release. So please don't expect it in the first batch of content. But you can definitely expect it to be released pretty soon thereafter.

A bit disappointed by this. I would really like to know the aprox expected release of "the second wave" then. The wait for this delays my planned RotRL AP. If i know that it will be a year before release i will do the job my self. But i its a matter of months i will wait and save the time creating it.

I would really appriciate a honest aprox release time

This is not meant as critisicm, but just a way for me to plan my use of RW!

Im all yours faithfully for ever! Thanks for making awsome programs, and keep up the good work

Just to sort of echo what Znicker said, what would be very wonderful is knowing which modules/APs are coming down the pike. If we have some idea of what's coming in the next, say, six months, we'll know which ones we may or may not want to build ourselves.

+1 For this. I have stopped all data entry waiting to see what is coming. My players are quickly gaining on me as I am waiting to see if Wrath of the Righteous made the cut. It is difficult for me to invest 40-60 hours per module if I can buy it soon.

Rise of the Runelords is expected to be in the second waves of content, which will probably come about a month after the first wave. So the wait for RotRL won't be long.

For other material, BJ and I need to sit down together and nail down the plan. When doing that, we also need to look at the survey results to incorporate that feedback into the overall priority of content. This is a pretty reasonable request. We'll do our best to get you a bit more details like you want. However, please understand that we'red swamped right now, so please be patient, and provide a few polite reminders in in interim.

yay! Dancing on the living room floor a little

Woo Hoo!

Excellent. I think this will really impact how people are using the tool. I know a number of us have stalled data entry for specific products as we are unsure if that effort will be replaced by official content.

I'm already starting to consider what the 5e SRD release means for me.

Assuming all 5e content is created in a realm that contains the SRD content (I would hope this happens) then it will be important to use the SRD as the base to ensure linking occurs with future content. Knowledge of the pipeline will help everyone make the individual decisions on what to focus on.

Thanks Rob.

Excellent, our group is about 6 months from the end of Giantslayer, and we have been toying up returning to RotRL (starting afresh) and luckily I have only just starting doing some data input, so I will hold off now, our other option is to go to Crimson Throne.

So release schedule will come in very handy...

Giantslayer in the Market

Any news or ideas on when the Giantslayer Campaign might become available in the Content Market? I'm really wanting to get it going with our group, and I've got 5 players that I plan to purchase player accounts for.

Any idea of when it would be available (months, years, whatever) would be very helpful!

Thanks!

First, we have to have the content market actually roll out. Who knows how long after they finally roll out the content market that it will become available? It could be available at the roll out or sometime later (days, weeks, months or years).

Since any completed data entry has been invalidated by Paizo's upcoming switch to Pathfinder 2.0, I'd like to change my vote to Not Interested - I'd much prefer to see core functionality completed so we can make better use of the software with our system of choice, rather then waiting on a 3rd party to dither and dawdle so that nothing usable can be accomplished on any front.

good choice pyremius

I'd like to respectfully disagree about the completed data entry. Our group has looked at the playtest and pretty much decided that we are not moving forward with PF2 and will remain with our two current systems, PF1 and 5E, which we alternate between depending upon who is GM'ing the current campaign.

I am also in favor of more core functionality completed as well. No argument from me on that front.

My two cents, FWIW.

We're going to be releasing an assortment of content for Realm Works when we launch the Content Market in December {2016}, with the initial focus being on adventures and other highly reusable material that can be dropped into numerous campaigns. A healthy portion of the content will be for Pathfinder, but not all of it. Beyond December, we'll continue to add more content for different game systems, with Pathfinder being prominent. This is just an informal poll to give us an idea of what aspects of the overall Pathfinder catalog you would find most desirable.

Note: This particular poll is exclusively targeted at Pathfinder GMs and players. If your interest lies with other game systems, please don't assume this means we're only going to be focusing on Pathfinder. We'll be supporting a variety of game systems. Pathfinder just happens to have a vast catalog, and we want to target our support effectively for the game.

Not to seem overly cynical.. (but will be taken that way by some) it's interesting that this thread started nearly 2 years ago and while we were assured then that this was not to seem like "we're only going to be focusing on Pathfinder. We'll be supporting a variety of game systems. " that is exactly what has occured... the brakes applied awaiting PF then,, and now....

In the one year and 10 months "other game systems "could have been supported" (or better yet overall completion of other commitments and improved general use) but the LWD course was already predetermined regardless of the fact that nearly 1/3 the people polled were "not interested" in the PF part, but wanted more functionality... kinda tells you where your vote is and all your +1's account for doesn't it.........

agree 100%

Just taking old posts at the beginning or on the middle of the road is imho a bit out of context. They communicated here and there what they gonna do. And we have here 120 votes or so... so what? If they rely on 120 ppl then they can shutdown the whole zoo here.

And the recent posts here all say the same just from different angles. Everyone should be allowed to post his/her opinion, but surely it is not necessary to spam every thread with an old lwd rob comment in it.

Let's wait for that content market and see what they are going to do. Probably they won't change the strategy now, after so many months passed by and paizo nearly done.

See ya around !

True, and to point.. I didn't resurrect this particular thread.. was only clarifying the duration of its start in reference to where it sits currently...

Not sure that quoting what was in fact said qualifies as "spam"... Now has Rob / LWD position changed .. on somethings sure, others who knows , this defers back to the lack of good communication of a path forward... which also is pertinent to the discussion.. IMO it is not "spam", the quote(s) leave any "grey he said / she saids" out of it... they are merely a frame of reference for those that have not been on this "journey" for the years it has undertaken.

correction.. not months... years....
But you do have a valid point, any reference or discussion of past events / statements should have a full frame of reference for the benefit of those that have not been a part of the community for as long as we have.
