[QUOTE="shadow, post: 5061531, member: 2182"] Since I may eventually be starting a new game, I'm looking at possible ways to go. The system that everyone seems to be talking about is Paizo's Pathfinder. It seems that more and more publishers are moving away from OGL and getting on the Pathfinder bandwagon. Now that Oathbound will be rereleased using the Pathfinder rules, I'm considering giving Pathfinder another look. I downloaded a copy of Pathfinder when it was a free Beta PDF. Frankly, I was not at all impressed with the way Pathfinder was going in the Beta stage. It seemed like another generic spin on d20 rules that attempted to "compensate" for some of the perceived deficiencies of 3.5 by giving thing an overpowered boost. Although I want to give the system another look, I'm a little wary of the $40 price tag. Is Pathfinder worth it? How different is the actual release from the Beta stage? Are there any reasons that you prefer Pathfinder to 3/3.5 or any of the other various incarnations of d20? [/QUOTE]
