[QUOTE="ruemere, post: 8393777, member: 5515"] Here's to the hope that Paizo shall release PF2 Essentials [1], a hundred page corebook with streamlined content [2], single-page character sheets [3] and experience pared to stuff that advance the narrative instead of bogging it down [4]. [1] Thinking about Exalted, not 4E. [2] No page flipping required during character creation. Read it while you make it. [3] Self-explanatory, even wizard players should not need to carry spell books in real life. [4] For example, turning a simple activity into a series of dice checks works for computer games, not necessarily so for RPGs. There are ways to make a single check mean much more than simple crit/success/fail/fumble scale, have a natural distribution curve as opposed to flat one, and to make one's skill more reliable. Oh, and you can achieve it with d20 - just have a look at Shadow of a Demon Lord with its boon/bane d6s. [/QUOTE]
