Disliked others (dropping 3E's weapon differentiation like Critical Threat Range, Crit Multipliers, etc.). On the fence over Bounded Accuracy. Also not a fan of inspiration dice, Bless dice, and other minor effects, it's just a more complicated +X bonus.Found PF2E around 2022. Like the multiclassing system and feat trees there in terms of customizing characters. Still like the relative simplicity of BECMI better but I don't think we're going back to that world.Have tried getting a couple of games going lately but the campaigns haven't "stuck." So right now not doing as much playing as I like. Among modern versions, I'd be happy to run either 5E or PF2E, though my preference is PF2E between the two and I'd really love a proper BECMI game, but I think that ship has sailed; most players today want to spend a lot more time in character build choices and not roleplaying choices and BECMI doesn't have a lot of that.</blockquote>
