[QUOTE="Mark, post: 4436825, member: 5"] Well, that's just it. Most of the folks I talk to about not buying 4E do it because they don't like 4E, not because they necessarily like something else better. As to competition, my contention is merely about [i]serious[/i] competition, which Pathfinder is to anything out there other than D&D, I'll grant you. Mind you I like the folks at Paizo a good deal. I think they are aces. But [i]I've[/i] had over 10K downloads of a number of freebies so the 25K dls of Pathfinder thus does not strike me as huge. Plus, what was the old Dancey claim? Something like 4 Million gamers played RPGs every month? How many copies of 4E will be sold through in the first three months? Seriously, direct comparisons between WotC and anyone else at this point should probably be avoided and claiming any correlation between anyone else and WotC in regard to sales of some company significantly effecting the sales of WotC doesn't strike me as practical.
