When D&D 4e was released and didn't go over well, WotC brought out the Essentials line about two years later to revise the monster math, provide some streamlined character options, changing skill challenges, and to try to revitalize the brand with better adventures.
Are we at that point with Pathfinder 2E? Like a soft reboot - a PF 2.5?
The APs are considered not up to the previous standards. It's largely failed to catch on, with dwindling physical book sales, falling market share on VTTs, and little 3PP support. Two years of flailing around was enough for WotC to do a soft reboot - is it soon enough for Paizo to do the same?
Do you think a revised, streamlined PF2 would help? What would you like in it?
