Defect thats a bit emotive, I don't owe my loyalty to one game or another I just play whatever I feel like, if a company choses not to support what i like then I just continue on regardless.
As for stopping doing something I enjoy to switch to something that I might not enjoy (before allowing the former to come to full term) would stink of cutting my nose of to spite my face.
Admittedly I haven't played PF but if it is anything like 3.5 I'm gonna have to say no. I tried to play 3.5 before it was fun when we did the RP bits but as soon as combat started too much of it decended into arguing about rules to the point where I was so confused about how certain action worked that I stopped enjoying it and I was always stuck playing the fighter (still am but it is more fun now).
Watching my fellow players take 5+ minutes to complete their turn (usually involving putting everybody to sleep or summoning half of London zoo) whilst I got little more than 1 minute (So Samuel grasp his tighlty sword and thrust it into the circling hellspawn*) was also a bit of a downer.
From what I've heard PF fixed alot of 3.5 problems, so maybe those type of problems are gone. But with things as they are I pretty much have to run the game to play (though I have been lucky enough to find a game) and I don't think I would be able to master the game especally NPC creation.
Regardless of how the company treats its customers it isn't enough to stop me having fun with my freinds. When I've had enough with Dnd I'm very tempted to take a break and look for a CoC game but thats not because of any thing that WotC is doing just because it looks intresting and not too taxing to learn.
(*there is only so many ways to say I hit it with my sword/axe/ect especally when descriptions had to be 100% accurate to what you where doing, though that could have been a group thing).
