Pathfinder is what I want and I am not surprised that I feel this way. They did a good job with Dragon and Dungeon and I think that honed their skills. They are able to give their target market exactly what they want. Also I think they have the contacts in the industry to make a quality products.

I don't see this as a bad thing for WotC. It'll only be bad for WotC if they misread the market, but in that case Paizo should be considered a safety net. Paizo'll hold on to a loyal market that WotC can later tap. Until WotC gives up the brand D&D they will always be able to grab other RPG markets.
