Message: <blockquote data-quote="Midknightsun" data-source="post: 5441580" data-attributes="member: 46459">Defect to Pathfinder?  No,not a chance.  I bought the books and looked through it- like many other posters before me I found it a nice little upgrade to 3.5, but not different enough to make up for what I see as 3.5's failings.  Would I play in a Pathfinder game?  Sure. I respect what they have done over there and hear great things from the fans, but I would never DM it. Did that with 3.5 and Arcana Evolved.  Got the T-shirt and everything.  Prep is too time consuming and I doubt Pathfinder would eliminate that issue. I used to joke back when I ran 3.5 that I might as well just go back for my Masters with all the homework I have for DnD (which I did- It was easier).  I'm just burned out on 3.5 and Pathfinder doesn't appear different enough for me.  I like 4e and the Essentials line.  I may get stoned, but I even like the changes to FR (never liked it even in the 2e days- too crowded with superpowered NPCs).  I also got tired of seeing NPCs I worked hours on get one-shot killed by PCs in very undramatic and pathetic ways.I have been considering dropping the DDi because of all the odd nonsense going on, but that itself wouldn't stop me from playing 4e.  If I were to get tired of 4e, I have many other systems that Id like to give a try (I am a gaming floozy) .  I do like Savage Worlds and would be willing to give it a whirl.  C&C looks interesting.  I love Exalted and would play or DM that.  Heck, I'd love to give the new DC Supers a try . . . but Pathfinder, nah.  I'd play it if my group really wanted, but it would be under some slight protest.</blockquote>
