I am saying that PF2 is very much a D&D 4E clone. Attacks scaling every even level. Feats at every even level. Feat taxes, spells being reduced in effectives drastically. Monster hit point bloat. Its all very 4E to me

I have to disagree. The Age of Mortals was terrible. I did not like that 40 years after the War of the Lance the Gods of Krynn have the attention span of a gnat and abandon the world. I also disliked Takhissis being slain by Silvanoshei. I understand that they need to flush out the other gods...

The only way I would walk away is if the game reverted to 4E. That is the reason I quit Pathfinder 2

I think people want a challenge. I do not think they want a real chance of death. If you look at how the game has changed, much more has been done to minimize character death. Higher hit point averages for all classes, Death Saves vs death at zero or negative hit points, poison doing hit point...

I am not sure mathematically there is much difference but I noticed a big difference in playtest classes such as sorcerer and fighter. I loved the warlock with half caster and dislike that pact magic is back. Half caster warlock felt amazing

I think the main confusion regarding clerics is that people think of them as priests and not warrior monks due to D&D specific fiction and weapon restrictions from older editions based upon game balance. People forget that is 1E & 2E weapons did different damage if a monster was larger or...

The cleric has no role? What about Friar Tuck from the Robin Hood legends? The Apostles and Saints of Christianity do perform holy miracles.

Honestly if a class needs to go it’s the paladin. The cleric is the original holy warrior that is adaptable to any culture. The Paladin is originally a very narrow interpretation of Christian ideals and with the de-emphasis of alignment has no real niche in the game.

No, weapon masteries should reserved for warriors unless you spend a feat. Stop poaching martial abilities especially for rogues and paladins who are already OP

I think the warriors will be the next playtest as they have been hinting at giving weapons certain properties. If so, I would like to see something like this Blunt Weapons - Chance to restrain (I feel this is much more fair than a stun while accomplishing nearly the same result. You can attack...

I do find it interesting that they did not mention that only allowing fighters to crit on natural 20's was universally panned.

The above image of a Paladin in Hell hooked me as a teenager. To be fighting devils and demons in Hell inspired me to pick up D&D and preach it to my friends. This is the image that made me fall in love with the game

Controversial topics can be used as long as they are handled respectfully. Slavery should never be glorified. It should be a condition that PC's are striving against and never defended. For example, there should be no penalty for a Paladin wishing to end slavery even if it is the law of the land.
