I know that we've passed some emails back and forth about the new Pathfinder RPG coming out in a couple of weeks, but I wanted to start a thread here as well.

So who is planning to buy it when it is released (or if you already have it preordered). If you aren't sure that you want to buy the book, Paizo will be offering the PDF for only 9.99. I will definitely be buying the PDF when it is released on the 13th. As for the hard copy, it will have to wait until I start getting a real paychceck again. Fortunatly, I am supposed to be starting a new job next month, and with my first paycheck I will buy myself the book to celebrate. But until then, it will be the PDF for me.

So are there any plans to get a game going after it is released? If so, please let me know, as I am definitely interested in joining. I am pretty sure that Anthony is as well.

I plan on buying Pathfinder, at least the pdf and probably the hard copy, as well. As for when I will ever find time to RPG again, that is another story.

yeah...all the other cool kids on the board don't want to play with me.....something about how I smell funny...but I will be buying the PDF as well and then maybe the Hardcover if I can find a decent group to play with.

The final version of the rulebook just came in. I'm going to pick up today or tomorrow and give it a look-see.

Yeppers... just got back about half an hour ago from picking up my copy at 31st Century. Ended up selling my Colossal Red Dragon on ebay to be able to pay for it. Oh well... he was just sitting on the shelf anyway.

Initial impressions of the book itself are mostly just about the aesthetics since I've not had a chance to read yet. The book is quite hefty weighing in at around 4 pounds, but I love the way they did the binding on the book. I have some other books at this size that when you try to lay them open on the table the pages tend to want to "flip". In the case of the Pathfinder RPG, every page from 1 all the way out to 550 and beyond lay flat. The artwork is simply amazing. Another thing that I noticed right away is that the races are setup with one race per page... so no having to flip pages when reading about a race. This is acutally a preview of what they are doing with the Bestiary, and I simply love this layout.

As for support on paizo.com, they have

3.5 - Pathfinder Conversion guidebook
Character sheet
Bestiary preview(not the bonus bestiary that was released on Free RPG day)
Updated character traits document
Errata for the 1st edition of the book.
They also have posted the Pathfinder RPG Reference Document.

Anyhoo... I'm going to sign off and start reading. If I get a chance, I'll do some more detailed write ups as I delve into the book.

Happy Gaming!

After perusing the whopping sized Pathfinder RPG book (really a player's handbook and GM's guide in one), I have to say I am generally pleased with it. There are somethings I actually liked better in the beta version, but given the choice between PF, 4th edition D&D, or 3.5 D&D, I would choose PF or 3.5 D&D for role-playing. The 4th edition rules are nice for certain types of games but I prefer my computer games on a computer and my RPG games with more role-playing.

There is a Pathfinder database http://www.pathfinderdb.com/ for things not currently in the regular rulebook.

EN World also has a discussion forum for PF that is worth checking out.

This is a hilarious take on why Pathfinder is better than 4th... from an evil character's perspective.

Yeah. I'm anxious to get back into Role-Playing, thinking of stopping by some local shops ans seeing what is out there, the new Pathfinder sounds really promising.
