Hunter:
In reply to jess_car_fix (msg # 10):
I can't speak for anyone else, but I'd prefer Pathfinder myself. It's been too long since I've played 3.5 myself.
then build your characters using pathfinder rules and chock the translation errors up to the curse the god put on the party.
aside from ...
...a change in grammar over the CMB and CMD
...all five senses being combined into one skill
...a clunky by functional conversion between level adjust and race points
...I see both as similar enough.
when it comes down to it...dice are rolled...success or fail...things happen either way.
path finder tends toward (slightly) more robust characters, and as long as role-play and roll-play are at the same level, I have no problems with translating on the fly things that NEED translating.
But translating an entire campaign setting as well as 20 years of my life and game history is not something that can be done over night. I am certainly not going to do it if the game is going to fall apart in a couple months.
