Well this person was speaking from a DM perspective and being able to threaten their PCs

Interesting, I have had another gamer tell me that boss fights were one of the best pasts of PF2e. IDK, I haven't played, but that was on of the drivers for potentially pushing me to play PF2e.

"I believe it's called 'jogging' or 'yogging.' it might be a soft j. I'm not sure but apparently you just run for an extended period of time. It is supposed to be wild" - Ron Burgundy "Anchorman" Sorry, this is the first thing that popped into my head.

Relative size / impact of companies too. What WotC does has a bigger impact in the TTRPG space so you get a bigger response and likely a wider range / larger number of people who care.

Interesting, I guess you haven't been to the pacific northwest (or the northeast, or southeast, or midwest) of America

There is a trend for every odd edition to be the big success, so maybe 7e will bring you back!

Although a 6e could be even more popular and draw even more 3PP support and potentially kill other systems and increase the dominance of Hasbro/WotC. You need to be careful what you wish for!;)

I like all the boxed set action!

Micah doesn't want to support Hasbro/WotC, but they do want to support 3PP. If 3PP follow in WotC's footsteps, then they will not like the 3PP stuff. At least that is what I believe is their reason.

That is basically word salad. Do you have any examples you can share? I am particularly interested in where the 5e24 rules have done the bold part above. I assume it is player side rules (since I pay less attention to those), but I could be wrong. I can't really think of anything on the DM side.

It doesn't seem like you read my post (or you wouldn't make the above arguments) and this is not an interesting or important line of discussion to me so I will drop it.

Yes, I was talking about their background (as opposed to the guard or soldier background). Well there is no half prof. Mind you at level 1 prof. is a +2 bonus. So tech. my son doesn't have prof. in all those items, but it doesn't matter practically IMO. I wasn't trying to say he is exactly...

I thought about 3 boxes, but not everyone likes to play novice characters so I split it out. However, I would make them all optional. You could start with box 1 or box 3, it doesn't matter. Play the game you want to play. Also, I would make box 1 & 2 completely compatible, only differing in...

IDK. A level 1 fighter could be a farmer (with no sword training) starting on there 1st adventure. They get a +2 to hit (prof.) that is roughly a 10% improvement over a commoner (he has that at least), fighting style check (he has unarmed fighting - region champ in judo, defense, and great...

It works for us. We have considered capping at 16 even

No sense for a mundane fighter either. My son has trained in longsword fighting for the past year and I can guarantee you he can't hit a person outside the reach of his movement and weapon. He is, at this point, at least as well trained as level 1 D&D fighter. Furthermore, he can train all his...

Fine, but it makes no sense to be that good at level 1 (plus swords can't do that)

I said in my response - IDK. Not on me to do your homework Actually I just checked. You derive the scoreduring character creation but only to determine the modifier. Then you never see the score again.

I wouldn't mind if they were all add-ons - the BECMI boxed sets are still my favorite. So: Novice Box: 0-2 Heroes Box: levels 3-10 Legends Box: levels 11-20 Mythic Box: levels 21-30 Immortals Box: levels 31-60

yes, it is filler when I need somethig more than the simple stat block gives me. Which is about 5% of the time. So why make something more complex when I don't use it or it is detrimental 95% of the time? Now, as you know I like designing complex monsters a lot, like a whole lot. I just find...
