[QUOTE="zztong, post: 7563956, member: 6943414"] While I might appreciate it if the final version of PF2 turned out to actually be close to PF1, I think they'd get destroyed by those folks who liked the system demonstrated by the playtest. So while I can agree there is a certain logic to keeping PF2 and PF1 similar, I think Paizo is running on different logic, no doubt better informed about their customer base and the market that I am. I can go along with Staffan's observations. To me, the playtest was too fast. It gave me the sense that Paizo was in a big hurry. If I tested anything, it was character generation. Yeesh, I'm tired of making PF2 characters and we're not done with Doomsday Dawn yet. I think Greylord's historical observations about rulebook sales will probably prove correct, but times do change. I have no plans to buy the PF2 rulebook and bestiary. The playtest made enough of an impression that I have no plans to run PF2 games. I just don't think I can use PF2 to tell good stories. I don't need the rulebook and bestiary to play. Hero Lab Online will have me covered. [/QUOTE]
