[QUOTE="Neonchameleon, post: 6217679, member: 87792"] This. Paizo do what they do very well. Produce a long series of pretty good adventure paths with superb production values that are very enjoyable to read and fun to play. I do not in any way intend to denigrate what they do here - and they probably do it better than anyone else in the history of the hobby. They are deservedly the most successful new RPG company since White Wolf by doing what they do very well. On the other hand they produce only [I]one[/I] game. That there is an ongoing edition war is a pretty clear indication that different people want different things out of RPGs. And when I point out that this isn't the only skill needed I get accused of sour grapes when my take is the more playstyles supported the better. Paizo only supports one game and have shown neither inclination nor ability to do more than that so far as I am aware (and there is absolutely no reason they should have to). And "The steward of our hobby" needs to be trying to help as many as possible - a completely different approach to Paizo's 3.5 Thrives. (And I'm not replying to Jason Bulmahn unless he actually says he wants a critique; I'm pretty sure he doesn't here). [/QUOTE]
