Ohhhhh!!! Kinky! ~Grins and runs~
Sharoth is threatened by manly [greenmanly] affection...or...all affection in his life is kinky?
*sniff* We just needed a hug.
*GROPE HUG!*... er I mean group hug, yeah that. =P

~shakes my head sadly and then pulls out my wand of defoliation~ Say that agin bub, and I will use this. I am a Silver Dragon! I can't help it if those pesky Iron Dragons stole my avatar!
Whoops...sorry. I stand corrected, Mr. Silver Dragon. ~grins right back~
Still excited! Pcgen support and no rage points are major boosts. Solid epic rules would close the deal.
done my part
Me too, thanks to you. I've had the Core Rules on pre-order since you could but I hadn't realized that the Beast Book could now be preordered.
I just fixed that.
HUBBA HUBBA HUBBA!
(translation: I daresay that we are... joyous of this undertaking by the most esteemed party of Lords and Ladies at Paizo. Quite so. Pip pip.)

Yes, still very much excited!
Every time I have a creeping urge to try out 4th Edition, I look at my gaming shelves. In the past, my first thought was, "Gee, I really don't want to leave all these books to collect dust, and I will never again have the disposable cash to build such a large collection for an edition of D&D." Now, I look at my growing Pathfinder Chronicles collection, then glance at my half-shelf of WotC adventures, and think--"There's no way that the types of great full campaigns and modules I can get from Paizo will be matched by 4th Edition adventures."
So, while I'm still jazzed to see how the final PFRPG product plays--we've enjoyed both the Alpha and the Beta in our "Crimson Throne" campaign--I am more excited to explore Golarion through it. The way your game world sparks my imagination and the past quality of your products has been my hook to the PFRPG more than anything else.
I'll be around through August and far beyond!

jeje my issue for not pre-ordering was knowing where it needs to arrive :P
everytime i ask for my "package" at a friend's house it so much sounds about some other illicit bussiness :Pits so shady and hiden... ahh... yes i would be killed at home for how much i expent on RPG books :P
ans as Golbez57 said... through the Alpha and Beta i learn of Golarion... i don't usually play or DM canned adventures... but the world of Golarion is SO rich... that i just could't stop myself and fell in love with it (and with Merisiel and Iomedae... but that is another story)

My issue with pre-ordering is that I hope they unveil a PFRPG rules subscription that I can take out, so I get a pdf of each bundled in with it.
IF that happens
i will ask them to change my order for a suscription :P still i will need to make a 2nd order for my friend... :S its to much over my shoulder to have 2 pathfinder suscriptions, nor do i think i can be organized in Paizo
Even more excited every day!
I read the two "I'm losing my enthusiasm for PRPG" and scratch my head. Wish them the best to find their perfect 3.x successor. Me, I'm enjoying 4E and am still excited about PFRPG.
Yeah...the subtitle could have been "I've lost interest in certain threads and started another of my own." Oh, and yeah, I'm still excited.

I'm gonna need to get 2... 1 for DM and 1 for players.. i just don't have enough money to get 4+ copies..
But it's still gonna happen, I respect the fact that someone put their time, money, and effort into this project. And i love what's become of it so far.
Personally though, i can't wait to see what their doing with the Bestiary. Especially with Level Adjustment and weaker than normal foes (such as kobolds)

aye much things i need to see :D
can hardly wait till August :P
What exites me most is even if Jason disagrees with one of my suggestions on how to fix/clairfy a rule I know he is listening. We are part of the creating PFRPG.

To all of those that welcomed me....Thank You.
Another reason I am still excited is that allot of the rules in the Beta are really close to house rules I have been using for a number of years. It is funny that when I posted some of them on the WotC forums, I was told they ruined the balance of the game. Now I see myself partially vindicated.
Bump, just because I'm still excited about Pathfinder!
The best reason for bumping.
Another reason for being excited? I say to you, Skills Refurbished.
Montalve, your neighbors to the north agree!
Yee-haw! Ride'em Pathfinder!
Another reason for being excited? I say to you, Skills Refurbished.
Hmmmm, skills =D~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
There are threads for those losing hope and those who've aren't excited anymore. I personally have little interest in trying to argue at this point: people feel the way they feel or judge how things have developed heretofore from their own unique perspective. But, for myself...
I'm still excited.
Whether you want to give your reasons for your continued excitement or just proclaim it, sound-off here:
I am excited about the PFRPG, it's got tons of potential (which is, IMHO, a lot more than can be said for 4e). The one thing I don't like is the increase in power of all of the classes. It was one of things I disliked most about some of the additional (and, for the most part, almost entirely optional) material that WotC put out.
I felt that some things (the Warlock, to name one specific gripe) were just too powerful compared to the core classes and needed to be scaled back to be more "reasonable." I felt that the driving concepts of the later books were all based around the core theme of "more damage equals more fun." That just isn't the case - even for the "power gamers," the "min/max'ers," and/or the "character optimizers." Just because they could make ways to allow for more powerful characters (which only required more powerful monsters/enemies - to keep the game challenging) doesn't mean that they should have done it.
Making the additional content uniquely engaging and viable didn't have to be entirely centered around the ideals of "more power." Attractiveness (to players; and to mean conceptually interesting and inspiring while comparable, mechanically, to the core material) and entertainment values needn't be considered mutually exclusive to one another conceptually.
Running Rise Of The Runelords, and I'm happy as a clam!
I'ts gritty, fun and enough "old schoolish" to satisfy my hunger for "The Good Old Red Box" (which I like to grow sentimental about, though I honestly wouldn't want to play it now). I find the Beta easier to understand than 3.5 (is that just me?) and I really like Golarion.
Any more exitement and I'd have to change my shorts...

As the Leprechaun says:
I can't claim to be still excited, as I only started looking through the PFRG stuff in earnest a couple of weeks ago, but I can certainly claim to be an immediately excited Johnny-Come-Lately*.
*Note that the Johnny-Come-Lately template can be applied only to monsters arriving in a battle no less than three rounds after its onset.
I read through the Beta rules and got excited. Then I bought a bunch of .pdfs and got more excited. Then I subscribed to everything and am busily working away on converting my in-progress 3.5 campaign world homebrew to PFRG rules.
I'm sure none of this will be new or original to anyone, but I'm frankly amazed at PFRG's ability to maintain a familiar consistency with 3.5 while simultaneously cleaning up sloppy rules, rebalancing aspects of the game, and incorporating a style of writing and design which makes me ramble nostalgically to my fellow tabletop gamers about how it reminds me of the good old roleplaying days when heroes were heroic, monsters were monstrous, and dungeons were dungeonous ...
...
You know what I mean, right?

Actually I am a Hard Core AD&D 1st Edition Gamer. I always had trouble with 2nd Ed. (Except the Skill System which I had adopted back then. Bit the most problems I had have was with third company product (with the exception of Chaosiums Thieves World Setting, some Mayfair Product and one or two Judges Guild Products.
Unfortunately, when 3.0 hit the market my group wanted to change from 1st Ed. to 3rd Ed. I went along, grumbling and making a very unhappy face. 8Fortunately I liked quite a few of the changes....but please don't tell my players I said so. With 3.5 I was totally happy. 4th Edition, well I was kind of exited but wary, and unfortunately (for WoC) I was verry much displeased. Still I kept my distance to any 3rd party products. Guess I am one of those people that believe if its not published by TSR or Wizards, then it can't be good. When Dungeon and Dragon Magazine has vanished from the stores, I decided to give this "follow up" thing called Pathfinder Adventure Path a reluctant look. Well and here I am, being EXITED.
Guys, keep up the work. You have found a true believer.....for now I will not look at another product which has not been published by PAIZO. Guess old habits die slow.

I AM DEFINITELY EXCITED
As a GM, PFRPG is so much faster and more balanced than 3.5 (Web & Grease were two low level spells that used to grind the table to a halt... no more). Designing NPC is quicker and easier (as is auditing character sheets for 8th level multi class characters). Regardless of the change to the Barbarian in terms of how Rage points work (for the record - i like the point buy for usage mechanic) thay have still made the class interesting to play for the first time. Sorcerer bloodlines... WAY cool. I could go on and on and on.
As a consumer, i have never seen such a respect for the customer and such a democratic product development in my life. It is an honor to be a part of the process. The contrast with other publishers and manufacturers is striking. I cannot than the folks at Paizo enough for how they have handled this from start to finish.
My group is running 2nd Darkness in PFRGP (mostly converting on the fly - using some of the stat blocks graciously provided in the forum) and loving the new rules. I am running one offs at my FLGS and hoping to do some type of release party when the final rules hit the shelves.
Love it, Love it, Love it!!!!!
Keep up the great products ;)

To the above I can not agree more (and he used a lot fewer words then myself, I ' have to get that fixed!!!)!!!
I'm still excited!! We're going through Rise of the Runelords for the first time!! W00T!!!
And the Gem of the Day is:
why is this even a question? What is there not to be excited about?
Exactly.
Still, I recognize and share the sentiments that everyone posted today.

Thing is, most of us (I'm guessing here) have jobs, where people couldn't give a .... 'bout a fantasy roleplaying game. And at home the situation is ofte the same. My girlfriend, though tolerant, often has that kind of "oh-dear-you're-off-to-play-at-being-a-leprechaun-again?" look.
It simply feels good to share something that excites you, even if there isn't any utilitarian purpose... (not sure if used that word correctly).
