View Full Version : Proposal to split the PF2 Essential bundle into Core & Campaign

Long story short - as an advocate of Fantasy Grounds I am trying to position the platform at every opportunity I have. I have great success for D&D, but epic failures for PF2. :(. The total cost of ownership of PF2 products compared to Foundry VTT is exorbitant. I tried with 4 groups and even people who have no financial worries declined to share the cost of modules and opted for Foundry, purchasing the official content for Beginners Box and Abominations Vaults. Still, I don't give up and I think bundles are a good opportunity to convince more people to stay/switch.


I propose to Smite Works and/or Paizo to consider splitting the current Essentials bundle into two - Essentials & Lost Omen for example. The line can be drawn easily between the Core products and Lost Omen setting books. Leave Beginner's Box outside of the two bundles.

+1 getting the Beginner's Box out of the bundle(s)

Thanks for the suggestion.

We removed the Beginner's Box from the Essentials Bundle. We will look at splitting out the Lost Omen's Setting books into their own category as well. I will need to wait for some new graphics from Brad for this though.

These are now split. The Essentials Bundle now contains 8 products and the Lost Omens Bundle contains the 8 Lost Omens products.

Very nice! Now we just need a sale, so that I can complete my bundles. You wouldn't happen to have any of those up your sleeves?

We normally participate in the Steam Summer Sale. We can't disclose any info about that in advance -- other than stating that we have participated in it each year.

This link seems broken, it just redirects to the main Steam store page.

Doug, thank you a lot for this! :)

Great customer support as always! I hope this will allow more people to jump on board with Pathfinder 2e for Fantasy Grounds. For sure it is much more affordable now. :)
