[QUOTE="Darrin Drader, post: 4114816, member: 7394"] I disagree. WotC putting Dragon and Dungeon magazines into their hands set them on the map very well. The move was initially unpopular and there was a noticeable difference in terms of art and layout. Both magazines appear to have not only succeeded but excelled under their stewardship and there was a great deal of people who were disappointed when the magazine left the newsstands to go online, once more under WotC. People who knew Dragon and Dungeon know Paizo. This is DMs and this is players. Paizo is not small and of all the D20 publishers, they are the one that sits best to challenge WotC in this manner. They said themselves that upcoming Pathfinder products will be backward compatible. This means that you won't have to invest in a new set of rules to continue playing new Pathfinder adventures. When and if people want to buy new books, they'll be available and apparently in a format that will make the game even easier to play. Its a good move, provided that enough people decide not to switch to 4E, or that the people who do switch are unhappy with it. Personally, I intend to play both sides of the fence. :p [/QUOTE]
