Feel free to wiggle out of this with semantics, if that makes you feel better. I know what I meant, you know what I meant. It's all pretty clear. Since there's clearly no chance of changing your minds on PF2, there's no need for me to keep trying.

Ok now I have to set the record straight: I am the last person who is doing a disservice to potential new PF2 players. I love the game and have brought all of my regular rpg playing friends over on board with it (some of them from 5e) also because I was able to show them how wrong these claims...

wow what a list. I guess I never thought of anything on that list as being "overly" complicated, as you want to convince me they are, because I was busy having fun with the game.

How is it "considerably" more complicated? What is it that you find so complicated in pf2 to describe the entire game as so much more complicated than 5e?

This. And like somebody else said, if the complexity leads to more fun, then it's not a burden, it's all gold.

I think "very complicated" is very relative and subjective concept. Anima is complicated, Aquelarre, Shadowrun, Traveller (the old version), Kult, PF1 etc. these are complicated. Also, there is good complexity and bad complexity. The good kind is achieved when you can quickly and painlessly...

Respectfully, there was no insult in my comment. Backhanded or otherwise. If you refer to my characterising 5e as being particularly well suited for casuals and children, how is that an insult or negative thing? There is nothing wrong with having a product that appeals to a broader category of...

I applaud your effort. However, I don't understand what it is. You call it "ancestry", but it grants feats that are decidedly more in line with class or archetype feats. So as it is I don't think it could be safely added to the game, even if slapping a "rare" keyword to it. Also, personally, I...

I don't usually drop a dislike to a YouTube video unless I feel it's really warranted. I disliked that review. In no way it does justice to the game and, to be honest, at times the arguments were so laughable I thought it must have been a mock review.

Wow... I'll add my anecdotal evidence to the pool, even though it's just that: me (mostly GM) and my players (friends from Italy and Spain) went from PF1 to PF2. It took us one session to realise how incredibly better the new edition is with respect to the previous. We have never felt the need...

No, it's hating on PF2 whilst not having actually tried it that makes them close minded. Me and my group played PF1, then PF2 came out. We tried it, it took us all of ONE session to realise how ridiculously better it is than the previous edition. We now very happily play PF2. End of story, no...

I would like to nominate the Roll For Combat podcast! It's a fantastic Starfinder actual play podcast which also has regular interviews with Paizo developers about all things Starfinder/Pathfinder, which are invaluable. The crew is fun, dedicated and whacky in the correct proportions ;) Check it...
