So what are you Pathfinder players/dms been up to? Running any adventure paths? Whats your character's build/concept? 1st edition or 2nd edition? Just wanted to make a post for a general discussion.

I have to say I think I’m leaning more towards 3.5 for the flavor and a slight bit more grittiness and somewhat lower HP. But it doesn’t preclude me from moving on towards PF1e if I see rules gaps, or mixing and matching.

I wouldn’t be altogether too surprised of Baker launches a new setting under the ORC license, since he’s discussed working on a new one.

As a long time player of 3.5e and Pathfinder, I would go with Pathfinder. Although I love the aesthetics of 3.5e and that whole era, the balance changes that Pathfinder brought makes it more fun for everyone.

Yeah he was talking about a wild west themed "wandslinging" new area for Eberron, and now he's thinking about just making it its own thing. If anyone can make that idea work, its Keith Baker.

Can I just merge the better rules and balance changes (grappling) into 3.5?

It does seem like the explanation of rules in 3.5 may be messier than how they’re explained in PF.
