I realize that many people (including Paizo) would say that they are not planning a PF 2.0. PF sales have increased and have done so every year. Lots would say that there is no need to starting making PF 2 (or a PF.5 if you will). They could very well be right, however this isn't a thread about "are they or aren't they", lets pretend that in alternate Earth-72 Paizo IS planning a new edition. What signs would we see? What would be the rumblings that things are in the works?
To answer this question it might be useful to look at their competitor, WotC. Paizo has followed and released products that are similar to what WotC has released. Also as a community we've examined WotC closely and now we've been through the edition mill a few times there are signs that when one sees, one can begin to wonder if things are in the works.
Signs I'd be looking for.
- Rules Bloat
- Experimental Books
- Growing complaints from fan base around rules
- Statements of change from employees
- Hiring of new R&D staff
- Letting go of old R&D staff
Admittedly I don't follow Paizo all that much so I don't know if any of these things are actually present.
Anyhow what have I missed? If Paizo was doing a new edition/Rules update what signs would there be?
