I'm realizing that with Pathfinder, I'm more interested in playing a game that has some similarities to the 3.5 rules but diverges heavily. Is anyone else considering going back to the Beta rules (at least until APG comes out)? Either that or Fantasy Craft. I'm discovering that my dislike with 4e has more to do with the rules being balanced to within an inch of their life then any desire to see 3.5 continue without change.

While I'm still not sure if I want to use any sort of 3.5 variant, or anything that might seem close, if I choose to use a version of Pathfinder it will be based off the Beta. For me it's just that the spellcaster class features that offered unlimited uses spoke to me less of 3.5's resource game and more of an actual concept to build the character around.
Alternative is FantsyCraft, though I'm not sure I'm up for that much complexity.

There were definitely some things in Pathfinder Final that I thought Beta was brilliant on. However, my players and I are kind of players where we will play a system with the good and the bad, very few houserules if any at all and usually we have houserules that are setting specific.
I did think about sticking with Beta though...
Well in a couple months you can probably use the beta of the APG. Really looking forward to that book. Then again I can't get the hardcopy book locally (and um Amazon, um yeah) so it's the difference between using one pdf for me or the other. Having a hard copy at the table might change things a bit.
