[QUOTE="breschau, post: 4115330, member: 52376"] I think this was a good choice on their part, but not for the reasons some have stated here. With WotC abandoning 3.x for 4E and so many players apparently decrying that change, there would have eventually been some company that came out with sustained support for 3.x. It might as well be Paizo. I have no particular love for their products (I've purchased none), but did enjoy the art in the free pdf. I disagree with many of the house rules they have chosen to use in their Pathfinder RPG. When you consider that most 3.x fans are refusing to go over because of the bump in powers, Paizo will not pick these players up when the dust settles. Just look at the bump in powers that the cleric and wizard get with their domain powers and school powers. These are essentially 3.x versions of 4E's powers. That's not the way to get the big corps' cast-offs. With the discontinuing of 3.x and the changing availability of books supporting that system, Paizo should have done a bang up job formatting the SRD with great art, charge $5 for the pdf and continue making adventures and campaign setting for that system; not change the system so many people are screaming about wanting to continue playing. By making the changes they apparently will, Paizo is cutting off the very fan base they are attempting to bring in. [/QUOTE]
