| I'm skimming the 410-pg Pathfinder Rulebook Beta Playtest ruleset right now and am up to pg 14. I note several key differences already: point-buy creation, racial ability score modifiers, and class features.
There's no way to make both the 3.5 PHB and the Pathfinder beta rules compatibile with one another in terms of character creation; it seems to me that a person choses one or the other but not both as allowable sourcebooks during character creation. I therefore pose the question to you lot--which book do you prefer to use when you sit down to create your character? | 
And yet another word from our sponsors
