[QUOTE="kevtar, post: 5902675, member: 27098"] Hello all, This is my first post regarding Pathfinder (so please forgive me if this question has been previously asked or run into the ground), but with all the discussion surrounding D&DNext - people are digging in to their "favorite edition" positions, and one of those isn't a D&D product (it may "be" D&D, but it's not a D&D product, lol). Anyway, I've played every edition of D&D from Basic up. I grew up in the 70s and 80s, and I've enjoyed playing the various editions of D&D - all of them (some more than others, but I've enjoyed playing D&D). The question I have then, is what makes Pathfinder so special? I've noticed that people who say they play Pathfinder mention that they "play D&D," and that Pathfinder "is" D&D. They also mention they liked 3.5 a lot. So why not then play 3.5? Why play Pathfinder? I live in Tongatapu, Tonga, so I don't have a FLGS to visit and read the books for myself, and I have a 256kbps Internet connection, so downloading things (legally or otherwise) is not an option either. So, I leave it to you good folks. Can you please tell me, in a concise paragraph why you play Pathfinder as opposed to 3.5 or any other official D&D product? Malo aupito! [/QUOTE]
