So caveat here art doesn't motivate me to buy or not to buy - its just a question of aesthetics. Besides I'm an artist and cartographer and I create realistic art and I prefer realistica art. (Despite being an artist, I hate modern art or abstract anything of art).I love PF, and I'd have bought it if it had no art or only stick figures, but then I would lament on that decision, but it would not sway from not buying.And 3.5 had at times good art, but the bulk of it had bizzaro clothing that made no sense, that fit no particular fantasy aspect, just some weird choice by the art director.So don't read more into my feelings for the aesthetics, art to me has no reflection into the game itself. Bad cartography on the other hand.... meh.GPPS: oh and having said what I say in both posts, I'm not implying 1e or 2e art was better. The thread is about 3e and Pathfinder, not anything before.PPS: now regarding monsters there was some great 2e art, and 3e and PF, the dungeon punk refers to humanoid art, mostly.</blockquote>
