[QUOTE="sunmaster, post: 4115397, member: 54722"] I think many people here don't get what the Pathfinder RPG really means. Look, with 4E what you get is what the people (designers, developers, writers) of WotC think that you will like. They make a product in their cubicles and sell it to you and you can buy or don't buy it. You have no chance to form it. All the threads here and on Gleemax didn't change 4E one tidbit. It is a closed product to consume or not - more chances you don't have -. BUT with Pathfinder RPG this product is YOURS. YOU make this product like you want. The document is open for all for more than one year from now. And with all members of the Paizo community you can now design the end product like you and your community comrades want. They opened up your path to your product. Now, is your chance to build it. If you just sit on your hands and complain about the printed product in one year that it has not the features you want, it is only your loose. AND with Pathfinder RPG you don't loose all your purchased 3.5 products. AND you can open up developments based on PRPG : For example a (inter)national organised play on the world of Pathfinder. It will be something like YOUR RPGA - just think about it-. This - the Pathfinder RPG - is now the Open RPG - open for the designers, writers, developers AND the fans - as the 4E should have been. @Paizo: Kudos, for this great move. Kudos for opening the path again for an Open RPG. Don't listen to all the naysayers here and on your boards. They didn't think through what this really means, yet. As much as I like 4E - and I will go for 4E with 4E-FR, that is for sure- the one thing what I find is a backstep is the closed again license. With OGL they made a great development for all the RPG business but with closing it up again to the biz and to the fans they damaged it somewhat. It will be a exciting summer this year. Great, great... [/QUOTE]
