I don't think anybody expected 5e to smash Pathfinder apart. Paizo has a lot of loyal fans who hate WotC and they certainly weren't gonna jump ship in any way, shape or form. I think Paizo has the task of staying relevant in an era where D&D is well received, I think that Unchained is an attempt...

This is high praise indeed.

Ugh....I suppose this means that 5e isn't selling as well as we all thought.

I suspect that this is in part a reaction to 5e. I don't think that this will have the desired the results on a meaningful scale (bringing in players who want a lighter game). I think that people who want that will go with the new shiny BUT... It's nice they have the option

I roll initiative every round. It stops the players from "gaming" the system and adds a Chaos factor to combat which I like.

I like this, does it make things more complicated? I have a larger group, so wondering how it would work out.

It totally had a "if you like this, then it'll be the new PF" vibe. PF/Paizo has to do something if they are to going to grow their brand in the long term. This is an experiment where they are going to try new things and see what sticks and then announce the new PF with the stuff the fans love...

This is what we do. Roll or take the average. You roll a 1.... tough

This. But at least for them I hope they get funded. I'm sceptical though

Yeah I Know what people hear are saying. I have a WPN store 5 minutes from my house. I've promised my wife that I would wait and get it off Amazon for half off. I've visited the DMG but it can't come home with me.

This. I haven't experienced a Legendary creature in our campaign yet but I'm sorry to hear that Solos are still punks that go down in a heartbeat.

3 out of 5 rating for Iron Kingdoms Core Rules They took the table top wargame and tried to shoe horn it into an rpg. In some places the game works well (character creation) in other places the game is clunky and rough around the edges(combat facing and length of combat). Spells are all combat...

Ugh. And Age of Worms was pretty horrid

I know that Paizo had probably considered doing 4e materials at one point, and it was deemed to be not viable with the resources they have. What I meant by suddenly is that if the fanbase was requesting it, and 5e turns out to be OGL, and it looked like it would be viable from a financial...

X10 Red Arrow, Black Shield. Epic, epic adventure.

I think it depends on how the sales of 5e turn out and if they start to take away from Paizo. If the industry is healthy enough to support both or if 5e sales lag then yes I'll agree with you. However if 5e sales continue to be good (and grow) and there is demand from the fanbase and it looks...

This post kinda blew my mind. Definitely some interesting points to consider. I'd considered Paizo producing 5e products to be a bit of a pipe dream by fans for Paizo and 5e, this is the first argument that makes sense. Equally interesting that if Paizo doesn't produce 5e materials that someone...

The original thread was about the possibility of a 5e OGL. This was how I think there won't be another Pathfinder

I've seen lots of comments lately about 5e and the possibility that it may go OGL especially that if 5e goes OGL then another Pathfinder like situation will arise (Pathfinder 2….the revenge!!!). I'm personally of the belief that the OGL was only one factor in all of this, there were many other...
