Paizo Pathfinder Quest

The Backerkit page says launches in 109 days now when it should have launched back in late March if my previous post was accurate. Depending on when the tariff issue started ramping up, they may have delayed it until they have some level of cost certainty on crowdfunding something that will certainly be made in China. That might be some time in 2029 at this point.

thank you, yes i saw the backerkit message. I found it a bit interesting it wasnt talked about, unless of course i missed it.

They posted an update. Nothing exciting but at least it implies they’re planning on launching the campaign soon.

I got the same as an email. Pretty exciting. As a Warhammer Quest fan, I'm stoked for this to finally happen.

Will most likely be an instant buy from me!

Pathfinder Quest's Backerkit has begun, and it seems to be doing well:

Pathfinder Quest Project Update: Ranger Unlocked, New Stretch Goals, New Tiers, and More!

Greetings, adventurers! It's been a busy weekend for Pathfinder Quest! We've hit our next stretch goal as well as added some new options for backers. Let's dive in and explo...

It's passed $400,000 with several weeks to go.

Pretty disappointed they didn't release the rulebook. Before I go spending half a grand, I want to know if it's more than just "PF2 Lite" and how it differentiates itself from the mountain of dungeon crawlers I already own.

I was semi pumped for this hoping for a Pathfinder Lite, but then I watched the actual play video and saw it used custom d6s and lost all interest.

@sevenbastard
I didn't think to look at game play videos, thanks for the idea.

Yeah, pass for me. Already went all in on Sword & Sorcery and they look to play really similar. Was hoping for something a lot less fiddly with a focus on exploration.

Well, I'm going to go all in on this.

Custom Dice are not a problem in Board games these days. A LOT of board games have custom dice...why wouldn't this one?

The biggest competition they have (Descent Legends) uses custom dice.

The other big competitor doesn't use dice at all (Gloomhaven/Frosthaven) but rather just relies on Cards (and paizo went that path before with their Pathfinder game which...really...didn't catch the feel of PF for me).
