Pathfinder was far better back in 1st Edition. So sad every TTRPG I latch on to, they end up disappointing me years later. First WotC with axing 3E and bringing us 4e and 5e garbage, and then Paizo ruining Pathfinder with PF2e and now this 2.5e
I miss PF1e and wish we had some support, even a little, annually. Like a "Pathfinder 1E Compendium Volume One" similar to Dragon Compendium back in the good ol' days. A collection of PF2e material converted to PF1e in a compendium they could do annually.

I think an Asian setting can be done properly for Forgotten Realms, just look at Tian Xia for Pathfinder. Not a hard thing to do. Get the writers, get the consultants, done deal.

Of course, being nothing but pure cheapskates with their products since 5E began, not surprised. Too worried people won't pay for...
Make sense. She's the SECOND Cynthia Williams to mess up the industry (The first being back in the 80s). Coincidentally. That OGL fiasco was unnecessary.
5E misses out on practically everything and always will.
The Golden Age of D&D is, and always will be, the first two editions where we had MASSIVE amounts of lore and settings and setting lore and game mechanics. Practically everything and even things small groups would ever use, which is...
The Golden Age ended with 3e being axed no thanks to Hasbro's meddling in forcing WotC to ONLY be more "profitable" even if that means splintering their loyal customer base and degrading the content and written works of D&D itself. Once it only cared about being popular and monetizing things, it...
