[QUOTE="Morrus, post: 6312452, member: 1"] A lot of that's simply company size. The CEO of Paizo (Lisa Stevens) is more accessible than the CEO of WotC. Anyone can ask Lisa or Erik questions directly, and that's clearly important to them. WotC uses a PR agency called 360-degree media (which sends pointless announcements the day after the news has spread across the web); Paizo interacts directly. Remember that WotC isn't just D&D, or even primarily D&D - it's M:tG and a bunch of other stuff. Paizo is primarily the RPG. Plus Paizo turns up to accept their ENnies... ;) I think WotC has been making quite an effort recently, though. They've managed to excite me about D&D (I can only speak for myself) in a way I haven't been for about a decade. I feel like it's 1999 again, when anticipation filled the air. I literally can't wait to see the starter set! (Also didn't they recently say only 15 people worked fo D&D, and only half of those on the RPG? That's not many people to spare when you're in pre-release crunch mode!) [/QUOTE]
