[QUOTE="Cor_Malek, post: 5270065, member: 91608"] Hehe, yeah that's how selective perception usually works. An argument that is weighted perfectly between 2 stances (A and B) will most often be perceived as biased towards A by B supporters and vice versa, because positives are considered to be natural and obvious, while negatives - unfair and ill-logical. Shows we have a good thing going ;-) As to the argument at hand - sort of reminds me of two drug dealers - one tries to get people hooked up and the other maximizes the sales :P Then again it's a bit unfair, because this is only if we consider sales alone, and leave out the Encounters. Or the Red Box which is basically like an extremely weak joint, one that makes you light, but not actually high, maybe you should try more. So I'm told. In my mind, WotC could pull a lot of crazy s*** and I'd still have good feelings for them - sure, they dropped OGL idea, but it was there to be dropped to begin with. Using Pathfinder also means using WotC material - which is great play... I dunno. I really like both companies. I prefer both PF and 3.5 to 4e, but that's because of system feel, not business model. I own only 2 PF adventures ([I]Crown of the Kobold King[/I] and [I]Carnival of Tears[/I]), and those are the only 2 adventures I have (at all)- I bought them because they are so great, not because I actually [I]need them[/I] to play (truth to be told, I actually dislike published adventures). As to campaign setting - I really don't get why people are not counting FR or Greyhawk. [/QUOTE]
