[QUOTE="billd91, post: 8591226, member: 3400"] I think Colville makes excellent points. While groups may not be entirely unique, they're probably all in a broadly defined minority of poorly connected groups. I'd be surprised if there's any play style than truly be described as a "majority" style. I think some of the debate about PF1 options really play into the disconnect Colville is seeing. Paizo put out a variety of options - including archetypes for some classes, feats, and so on - that generated a lot of debate on the Paizo boards for being overpowered/underpowered, etc. But I always saw it as Paizo throwing out a lot of thematic options that may [B]or may not[/B] work at any given table. The most vocal critics generally seemed to assume that Paizo should have been designing based on that "problem to solve" model. The same is true, I think, for the people who complain the most about the Oberoni Fallacy or trap options. Not every option is appropriate for every situation. [/QUOTE]
