[QUOTE="Kichwas, post: 9087175, member: 891"] Very active game and community. If you look on YouTube you will likely run into a video by some guy saying why he's quiting the game and giving a huge list of problems with the system. Just know that the guy's own players debunked his video - he'd heavily changed the rules, complained about the things he changed, and flat out not told the truth in his video. But his video is still one of the first things that pops up when people look for info on PF2E so... assuming you're just starting to get interesting in finding info; hopefully I can head you off of that video. PF2E does NOT have as vibrant of an 'active play streamer' community - things like Critical Role for example. And if you look for games on things like roll20 it will seem dead. That's because most PF2E players who play through a VTT use Foundry. I do strongly advise AGAINST joining any game hosted on roll20 - GMs there have to keep paying fees to roll20 for every book they use plus I think a subscription, so you're likely to find yourself dealing with constant begging for donations.

In addition there is a healthy 3rd party publishing community in 'pathfinder infinite'.
