The amount of 3PP support I have, in print, on my game shelves right now for Pathfinder 2E is more than I did after the first three years of D&D 5E, so it seems ahead to me. I'm more interested in the fact that so many PF1E 3PPs continue to come out, and that not as many of those publishers...

I can certify from personal experience that I can still make interesting but suboptimal characters in Pathfinder 2E. Anyway, on that video, I was primarily amused that he used exactly, almost verbatim, the same complaint I made about PF1E, and then took a classic edition war tactic re...

Some of us might be on a written forum specifically because we can't access videos right now....

I love PF2E. Here's my reasons: 1. As GM I find that the encounter balance mechanics are very fine tuned and work exceedingly well. So well that you can build encounter design for effect and rarely ever be disappointed in the result. 2. PF2E characters are tougher, but not too much tougher than...

I gotta be honest, everytime I read a thread and get interested in thinking about a return to PF1E or D&D 3.5, then a discussion on the finer points of (to use this example) kneeling vs. prone or something grapple related pops up, and a cold chill grips my heart and I realize I'm just fine with...

Some games just don't require a lot of infrastructure to enjoy....in fact with CoC I have used only the free quickstart as the underlying compendium, because all I actually need is my print copy of the Keeper's Guide to run games on Roll20. But when I started with Roll20 I went in with PF2E...

Actually you make a really compelling point...with VTT becoming more normative in the wake of the pandemic, games will survive for which support and interest can be found in the VTT realm. In my own example, I've gone whole-heartedly into the Roll20 economy, which means that in terms of "games I...

I quite miss sitting at the table and gaming face to face, but my PF2E game converted pretty easily to Roll20 back in April and we all adjusted well enough --enough so that the comments here about Roll20 being poorly optimized for PF2E make me wonder how much better other VTT setups are....I've...

This mirrors my experience. I don't know anyone in my town locally that still plays PF1E, everyone has migrated to 5E or PF2E (that said, 5E still dominates).

Time will tell. I recall that 3PP were very slow to adopt 5E for its first two years, took a while (and WotC's dmsguild.com) before we started to see that turn around. 3rd edition/PF1 have had a lock on the 3PP mindset for two decades now.

CP Red...ordered!!!! Free Spacer....ordered!!! JTAS 5 --also ordered (never heard of Atomic Empire before so first time ordering here) Godforsaken....I was a KS backer, it's en route already. Merry Xmas to me!

I'd be interested in sources on this. I mean....it could make sense (I feel PF2E worked well to bring back lapsed players like myself, but I don't know if it convinced players who never got tired of 1E to switch).

As a fan of Pathfinder and Savage Worlds this feels like a peanut butter and chocolate moment.

But that makes no sense...PF2E IS the errata for 1E. Took 600+ pages to fix it! ;)

No that's not what I meant (my intent was "exclude myself" not someone else excluding me, I think this is a great and inclusive game); my comment was aimed at other posters who said this sounds like a game for which they are "not the target audience." My point is....don't sell yourself short...

In defense of straight males in gaming I think this game sounds entertaining and not sure why I'd be excluded exclude myself from playing it....it sounds like an entertaining RP challenge!

Best news! I'll keep an eye out for it, ordering it the moment I see it.

Between 1980 and 1984 I got into, in rough order: Gamma World D&D (first basic then AD&D) Traveller The Fantasy Trip Tunnels & Trolls Runequest Arduin Adventure Call of Cthulhu Palladium Fantasy The Mechanoids Ysgarth Boot Hill Top Secret Star Frontiers There were others....games I don't even...

Pathfinder is a book full of options (2000+ options) but I would not consider it difficult. It's extremely processual with the most consistent, predictive math I've seen in an RPG since GURPS.

Still hoping a premium version of M-Space will be available in print in the US at some point (like the one available overseas, not the cheap quality lulu edition).
