In fact for the most part I wasn't playing much RPGs at all for almost a decade - sporadically playing 2e, as that was the game I had the books for.Right about the time 4e came out, I had begun a side career as a pro fantasy cartographer, creating maps for Mongoose Publishing, Dog House Rulez, Rite Publishing and a number of small publishers and private gamers. I was starting to develop interests in game design/development at about this time too. Of course doing so for 3x so late in its run seemed impractical and I was not interested in being a 3pp for D&D 4e.So when Pathfinder came out, this became the impetus for me to design game supplements for a 'brand new game' - the timing seemed right. Now I am a game designer/developer creating a project as an imprint under Rite Publishing - <a href="http://ritepublishing.com/kaidan.html" target="_blank">Kaidan: a Japanese Ghost Story</a>.So I have a special connection to Pathfinder, moreso than 3x or any edition before that, yet I still love all the previous editions. I don't hate any game. But I also feel that playing Pathfinder on its own is a much more enjoyable experience - having said, I tried mixing 3x with PF, and only found continued consternation over that year of play. Seeing others with similar views, I don't think my statements are unfounded nor a slam on any previous edition. I was just casting my recommendations.Perhaps I should have worded my first post here differently, as I was not trying to start a conflict with anyone - just trying to state my POV. Sorry, it got you all up in angst over it, that was not intentional. I didn't forsee saying so would cause any problems or fears of edition wars - I avoid edition wars and edition war threads on every forum I visit. EW is just a silly exercise in futility.Play what you want to play and have a good time doing so, that's the only important thing.GP</blockquote>
