[QUOTE="Salthorae, post: 7785492, member: 1095"] As I said before. Have fun with PF2! I hope it gives you really satisfying game experiences. I mean, it's not a "random message" this is an official EN World Review of PF2, right? To quote the parts that immediately put me off. Thus, this reviewer liked the 4E system apparently, and ascribes many similarities to what PF2 is doing. I don't want a "superb tactical combat machine". One of the things that MOST turned me off of 4e was its laser like focus on tactical combat, largely to the exclusion (to me) of other aspects of what a TTRPG can offer. And this is not the only review that I have read that likens the PF2 systems to the 4E systems. From [URL="https://www.tribality.com/category/previews/playtest/"]Tribality's PF2 playtest review[/URL]: Many have noted how little has changed from the Playtest, so I don't see any reason to assume that these statements are no longer valid. I'm sure I'll read through the book at some point, but I have no reason to try it with reviews like this and others. This is my last comment on the thread. As I said before, earlier, above, and again: Enjoy PF2! For those who are excited for it, awesome. I'll be over here with my PF1 & 5e games and source material that I couldn't play through in 10 lifetimes if I played every day. [/QUOTE]
