[QUOTE="babinro, post: 5471421, member: 67482"] I love 4E too much to switch to any other product at this time. Granted, I no longer purchase books for 4E, and may not again with possible exceptions of Monster Manuals and Player Handbooks but that's not the point. 4E has an amazingly customizable foundation of mechanics where, after some time getting used to the game, you can simply throw together monsters from scratch with made up powers and expect it to be relatively balanced. That being said, I do have an interest of where the future of D&D is headed. I've pretty much lost all confidence in any future 4E products catching my attention. It'll take a lot to make a 5th edition superior enough to warrant my wanting to switch...but with all things I will consider my options when the time comes. Back to topic. At the time I truly enjoyed 3.5. It is what introduced me to D&D. However, having eventually switched over to 4E a few years later, I realized how much better gaming can be. Pathfinder maintains many aspects in 3.x that I simply don't enjoy. It certainly feels more 'hardcore'...but in this instance, that simply doesn't translate to being more fun in my opinion. I would probably only play it, if I literally had the choice of playing Pathfinder, or nothing at all. [/QUOTE]
