[QUOTE="delericho, post: 6342629, member: 22424"] They'd tell us. Paizo have been very good at communicating with their fans, and they've gotten a lot of credit for involving those fans in playtests, for listening to feedback, and so on. So when Paizo start working on PF 2.0 in earnest, I fully expect them to be open and upfront about it, and to get their fans involved in the process early. That said, I wouldn't be at all surprised if Paizo's designers weren't noodling around a few ideas. In fact, I would be very surprised if they hadn't been [i]even before Pathfinder was released[/i]. In particular, that "backwards compatibility" thing served to limit what they could really do with the game, and I expect those handcuffs must have chafed in at least some places. So I suspect "Pathfinder: Unchained" is something of an outworking of some of those ideas. And it may serve as a first step towards PF 2.0... but if so, it's the first step in a [i]very[/i] long road - and it may be years before they take a second such step. (If nothing else, PF:U will inform the design of any eventual PF 2.0, for the simple reason that if people love it then any new edition will adopt the changes, and if people change it then they'll do something else instead.)
