We have been told the reason for this decision is that our website has not produced royalties for Paizo.

So do we know what AoN is doing. I mean they just have to remove art assests right?

[–] Zagorath@quokk.au 1 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

They have to remove the art assets, remove all their PF1 content, and they will no longer get access to content ahead of time (which enables them to have it available on the site as of the day it officially releases).

why pf1? that was based on the ogl no?

[–] Zagorath@quokk.au 1 points 2 weeks ago

Yeah tbh I'm not sure why, but apparently they do indeed have to remove it.

HubertManne It will be quite a bit more than that. AoN contains a fair bit of Golarion lore-related text that will need to be removed, and it's likely the pages that contain full chapters of the books will have to be pared down or reworded.

It will be work for the AoN team, and I'm sure they could use some additional volunteers to help out with the process.
