Nothing stops us from being able to do those two different things. It’s going to make us look at Eternity as a brand. What else can we do with it? I want to hook up with the Pathfinder guys and see about doing a Pathfinder Eternity world book thing. It sounds a little weird, but… A card game. A board game. I’ve already been chatting with Cryptozoic Entertainment. We have nothing going on specifically, but they have a lot of experience in board games and card games. That’s what’s going to be transformative.

All will be revealed this weekend. Well, maybe not all.
Press release tomorrow. More details throughout the weekend. We are talking about more than one type of game. I think you guys will be happy.
Btw, they are NOT taking over Pathfinder Online. Let's squash that right now.
