Yeah. We were very close to everyone being called IanIt's not really that funny, but Strange Ians really tickled me
Running my third session of The Half Dead City after Easter. The theme and old school feel of this module has been very popular with my players.

I just moved recently and uncovered all my Pathfinder 1E books. Good memories, and I have decided to drag them out of retirement to run another game soon.
My group still plays PF1e weekly, and a once a month all day Saturday Game. We've been playing PF 1e since it came out. We love it. We left ADnD 1e for 3.5 and then moved from 3.5 to PF 1e as soon as it came out.

Have you all ever gone back and tried 1e in those years?
Though I think the question was for Arcanra, I’ll answer too:
OD&D: never
D&D Basic, BECMI, RC etc.: never
AD&D 1e: 1982-1988, 1996-2001
OA: 1987-1991
AD&D 2e: 1988-1989
D&D 3e: 2001-2003
D&D 3.5e: 2003-now
D&D 4e: 2007-2008
Pathfinder 1: 2010-2018 (rarely, only at PaizoCon)
D&D 5e 2014: 2020-2022 (rarely, only GenCon Online), 2024-April 2025
D&D 5e 2024: Starts next month
I’ve converted materials from all but the first and last for D&D 3.5e games, which fit nicely in the middle.
I also played Pathfinder: Kingmaker and BG3, which are sort of PF1 and D&D 5e.

I didn’t see an advantage to switching. I have used PF1 adventures, iconics as NPC’s, and rarely a rule or two from PF1, but the further it gets from AD&D or 3/3.5, the less interested I am.
No.
That reminds me …
What do folks think of the Companions in Pathfinder: Kingmaker, and/or the iconics?
I was thinking
about them this morning.
From Pathfinder: Kingmaker, I remember after years, with a little help from looking at the list.
Amiri. The female human barbarian with a giant’s sword. The most iconic of the iconics, and I believe the only iconic who made it to the console. I remember her fight with the boar.
Linzi. Your female Halfling bard chronicler. Fun character concept, acted well.
Valerie. Female Human Fighter specialized with Tower Shield.
Fairly fun, specialized in drawing attacks rather than dealing damage.
Regongar. Male Half-Orc Magus. I didn’t particularly like the Magus concept, but he was effective in his own odd melee caster way. I remember rescuing him and …
Octavia. Female Human Wizard/Rogue. Sort of boring. I remember her relationship with Regongar, but I forgot her name. I forgot the name and anything about the others below until seeing them in a list.
Harrim. Male Dwarf Cleric. Eeyore personality. I kept him around feeling I needed a cleric, but didn’t like him much - or remember his name - I had him confused with Harsk the iconic.
Ekundayo. Male human Ranger. I remember meeting him, but I don’t recall using him much.
Jaethal. Female undead elf inquisor. Seemed like an interesting concept. I remember learning some lore from her.
From the iconics, my players once met several in a party. I think it was: Amiri, Seoni (female human sorcerer), Valeros (male human fighter), and Harsk (male dwarf ranger).
Off topic for PF, but my newest D&D 3.5e party met Karlach from BG3 (converted by me to 3.5e, and stranded in Greyhawk - she comes from the BG in the Forgotten Realms, went to Avernus, and was hit with Dismissal back to the Prime Material Plane, “randomly” ended up on a planet she never heard of). I had fun with her not being able to speak Common, and they decided to recruit her.
