[QUOTE="Arilyn, post: 7186603, member: 6816042"] Wasn't meaning to sound touchy, but people keep saying Paizo is doing all these things wrong, but they are very successful, so huh? Your point about low hanging fruit makes sense on the surface, but Paizo would need to assign staff to converting, and I don't think that makes sense for them, as then those staff members are not working on Pathfinder projects. After all, a lot of players are converting on their own, anyway! As far as introducing new players to PF, they have an excellent beginner box, and are a huge presence at Gen Con. I am not trying to toot Paizo's horn over other systems. My favourite F20 game is 13th Age. I enjoy playing both PF, and 5e. I just feel that Paizo is an extremely well run company that is not suffering unduly over the success of 5e. Slashing their production schedule will not be a wise move, if it is unnecessary. I have run PF arcs for 5e and 13th Age. Nobody has shot me yet! Sharing is the norm for this hobby. Pelgrane and Chaosium work well together, even though they are both publishing Cthulhu games. Also, Atlas and Arc Dream are part of this club as well. Fierce competition between rpg companies is a myth. Fans, on the other hand... [/QUOTE]
