But I have never really asked him how it is doing so I don't know for sure.  He did seem to find it odd that his distributor was asking for pre-orders on the Pathfinder RPG now. I think that indicates it will be a strong seller. At least I hope it indicates that fact.I am not sure I understand this mode of thinking.  I never liked 3e but I certainly don't hope that Paizo and the other 3PPs supporting 3e and Pathfinder tank because I never liked the system.  In fact, I hope they do well so that people who prefer 3e can continue to see their game supported.   I felt bad when the 3e support seemed to dry up after and slightly before the announcement of 4e.  I certainly think Pathfinder can help revitalize that market outside of just the Pathfinder line of products.  Heck, I still buy Pathfinder stuff because the fluff is so darn good.I know a number of my recent posts might earn me a reputation for being a "rainbow and bunnies guy" when it comes to edition wars. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" />  But I honestly want to see us move past some of this and start relating as gamers and not by what edition we play.  I know that is not entirely possible and that some people on both sides of the debate can never be entirely happy with how things have gone.  But I can hope, can't I?Edit: I want to make it clear I am not being confrontational or trying to take this thread too far off topic.  The idea does confuse me a bit and I am curious why anyone would want to see someone else's game of choice and source of entertainment take a nose dive.  No hard feelings, just genuine confusion.</blockquote>
