[QUOTE="dave2008, post: 8100864, member: 83242"] I disagree. First I must explain I didn't play 3e or PF1. I played 1e, then 4e, and now 5e. I decided to give PF2e a try. I purchased the CRB, Bestiary, and later the GMG. The number of pages doesn't bother me, but the idea of making a character with all of those feat choices does put me off, to the point I have stopped reading the class sections of the book. To further clarify, I am not into character building. When I don't DM (99% of the time), I want to play, not build, and I want to play casually. PF2e has me concerned on few accounts: [LIST=1] [*]The shear number of options at character creation and each level has me a bit stressed. I don't want to make that many choices.
