[QUOTE="ggroy, post: 4847794, member: 83805"] On another tangent, I also may eventually be turned off by the Pathfinder Golarion setting. This would be due to stuff like: - Paizo publishing tons of novels based in Golarion, where a lot of stuff from these novels end up becoming "canon". - More and more of the Pathfinder adventure paths and modules end up being perceived as "canon". - With more and more "canon" proliferating, eventually Golarion "canon lawyers" may possibly become numerous enough to ruin the setting. I get the impression that the Pathfinder adventure paths have sort of a "novel in rpg form" feel to them. They do remind me of the Dragonlance series of modules for 1E and 2E AD&D, in the how they are structured. What turned me off from Forgotten Realms eventually, was the huge proliferation of canon produced over 20+ years and the "canon lawyers" ruining several FR 3.5E games I played in. It would be nice if Pathfinder Golarion remains relatively "canon lite", though I doubt that will happen. If Golarion becomes popular enough, Paizo will probably want to capitalize on it with novels written in the Golarion setting. [/QUOTE]
