[QUOTE="ShinHakkaider, post: 4131729, member: 9213"] Seriously. How does the fact that a few people are business "experts" on a message board effect what goes on at my gaming table? With the 4E announcement, it pretty much confirmed that my spending on RPG stuff was going to drop to next to nothing. I expected EVERYONE, including Paizo to go 4E. So Paizo was going to lose my dollars anyway. Now, they are NOT going 4E (just yet) and are producing a ruleset that will allow me to keep using my sizable library of 3E & 3.5 books. So this means that I will be possibly spending MORE money with Paizo that I would have before (I'm a Pathfinder subscriber). Now I'll be picking up their core rules book and maybe even some of the world based books that they'll be coming out with as well. What I don't understand about this attack on the intelligence of Paizo, and yeah it's pretty much an attack, is that if theyre so boneheaded and so wrong just support what you want to support and leave Paizo to FAIL. Paizo is the ONE company who is still going t support the OGL, it looks like everyone else will be going 4E. There will be MASSIVE support for 4E from WOTC. Necromancer will be supporting 4E, Goodman Games will be supporting 4E, I think Green Ronin will be supporting 4E and I'm guessing that Paizo will be supporting 4E at some point in the future. Why crap all over the one thing that the 3.5 crowd has left? I mean all of the rabid 4E people (not the rational ones, the rational ones are pretty cool) should be happy that they dont have to hear from disgruntled 3.5 people now that they have something else to focus on.
