I played DND ever sence second edition I was thrilled when 3rd came out and 3.5 I spent so much money on books. I was in my own little happy land, but all good things have to come to a end my world came crashing down once I saw 4th edition at first I thought it was wizards pulling a prank. I thought no no they would not ruin a perfectly good system but alas I was wrong. Depression hit me hard then cause everybody was hopping on the new edition band wagon in my area. I would stare at my books and I swear I felt a tear creep up in my eyes. And then I went to madisons geek con. (mmmmmmmm geek con) and I played pathfinder. once again I could feel the happyness rise in me. And then I was told that all my books would not go to waist cause the editions are so samilar. I was hooked right away I ordered the phg and the beast book right away and I invited my clostest friends to join in my campain. Right away they loved it we had a Grand Time with a huge bondfire throwing away there 4rh edition books and celebrated the glory of pathfinder. And this is why I play pathfinder

Your story is more dramatic than mine. But the feeling is similar. I was pretty unhappy with 4E. It felt like a betrayal of epic proportions aftering playing the game since 1979 or so. Pathfinder renewed my commitment to D&D.
It's the type of company D&D should be run by: small and independent. With a strong creative core of gamers who love the game uninfluenced by a large corporation.
Glad someone stepped into offer an alternative to 4E that I can enjoy. Almost stopped gaming because of how much I disliked 4E. If it wasn't for Pathfinder, I doubt I even still game.
It cleaned up the 3.5 system nicely. And still kept all the traditional elements of D&D I love, especially the interesting magic system.
Glad someone else was able to keep their love of D&D alive with the Pathfinder system. That's a major reason I think the founders of the company created Pathfinder. They were in the same boat as all of us when Wizards tried to force a new system down our throats and call it D&D.

I hear yea I tried to be a player in 4th I hate being one of those guys who is a hater with out even trying it I played a good month I was a monk in 4th ed. I just did not feel the dnd spirt I know that sounds silly but good ole 3rd and pathfinder has a feeling to it you gather around the table you make a char and you know your going to have fun. When I played 4th I made the char but it was like the char was empty a hollow shell I tried rping with it but you can only do so much with 4th edition.

Is it wrong that LOLed at the mental image of a 4E book burning party?
