I like the word, I just don't like the fiddliness.

I don't really see current 4E players as the main source of new PF players and if anything, the announcement of 5e will probably put a stop to what movement there is. My guess is that the pool of existing 3.x holdouts is the richest source of new PF players. Here the effect may be double-edged...

On the timing thing: Only a guess, but Erik Mona stated recently that Paizo are selling more PF core rulebooks now than they did at launch (I think this is in the Chronicles Podcast). My assumption would be that a v large proportion of these sales are to 3.5 players who are switching over...

Have you seen Character Folio from Dark Theatre? Welcome to Darktheatre It's not everything you want but it comes quite close.

We had a mix of 3 and 3.5 books at the table, then 3.5 and PF Beta books, then full PF. If you don't sweat the small stuff you hardly notice. That said, I hardly touch the books any more and have DM'd off the SRD and now the PFSRD for years now.

Well if this is what it's going to be like under 5th Edition, I'm already unhappy.

Also... will resources be based around the encounter?

Apologies for off-topic, but our PF experience, post APG, is also of really weird mixed-bag parties. Current Kingmaker group: Druid, Cavalier, Inquisitor, Ninja, Alchemist, Paladin.

It is true that in the age of spectator sports, most sports have developed to a lesser or greater extent so as to better entertain an audience, but the prime purpose of most sports is the enjoyment of the participants. Spectators came along later. But they will have a qb, receivers and...

This new landscape is very interesting. I'm not sure that anyone can be certain about what represents the future of gaming - either in terms of game design or approach to market - but it's clear that WotC feel that the book-light, digi-heavy subscriber model is the way to go. My questions is...

I wasn't aware that there was such a meme. If there is it should be taken into a room and shot. I can say with some certainty that if it were not for VTT play, real-life resonsibilities and geography would mean that our group would only play twice a year. As it is we can import our PCs direct...

Thrice this.

Am running (slightly re-skinned) Crypt of the Devil Lich in PF currently. It's turning the party into mush, so I guess that means it's working OK :)

Which is why they are including it in the subscription - they know exactly where those sets are going....

An exercise in the bleeding obvious... 1e 2e 3e Pathfinder 4e

I'd go for this, but as per the Kingmaker setup, I'd have rival groups fighting to establish control over individual areas of 'turf' - gangster style. One of these groups would be the party, the others would be rival crime families. Or they could be clearing out the gangsters in an...

Hyrum Hornyhorse?

When we were kids, pretty much every out-of-game grievance would surface in-game. Inter-PC feuds were commonplace and ended up rolling on vendetta-style between players, through PC after PC. Often the 'wronged' player would wait for months, waiting for the moment to strike, ideally through an...

Err... clearly you haven't encountered this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kGQVETVVGf0

Sold all my 3, 3.5 and 4.0 books recently. Still got my copy of the PF Beta and a copy of Wheel of Time, signed by Robert Jordan - those are keepers.
