[QUOTE="JmanTheDM, post: 8079047, member: 6791902"] [Anecdote incoming] Predominately 5e GM here. Occasional 5e player. Have nearly switched all my fantasy GM'ing over to PF2e. GM'ing 2 different campaigns with 2 different groups. Only keeping Rappan Athuk in 5e (though its on Hiatus), but would LOVE to switch that over as well - just feel that would be too much work on my part. Never GM'd 3.5 or PF1e. Never played PF1e. A total Paizo newb who before 2e maintained an upturned nose towards Pathfinder generally. of the 10 non-overlapping players in my 2 campaigns - 1 is a hard "switch everything", 2 are decidedly "keep playing PF2e if you keep running adventures" (one of whom was anti-PF1e). 3 are complete TTRPG newbs having never played or last played in 1e era. 4 are... I guess neutral - they enjoy the game but have no real comment on PF2e the system. I also have 2 other people waiting in the wings who [I]really[/I] want to play PF2e, if spots open up. Not the campaign or module (because I'm wrapping up plaguestone and this has never been advertised as a "campaign"), but want to play PF2e the system This isn't data. In my little private discord world of 22 face to face friends (and friends of friends) who've banded together for online games during the pandemic - there are 2 active and 1 soon to be 5e games. 2 active PF2e games, 1 aliens, 1 CoC, 1 PbtA based game and 1 heroquest game being run. More non-data: while I have purchased the physical books - at least 3 other players picked up the Humble bundle. no way they ever would have dropped $ for PF2e if that bundle wasn't out there. My 2 cents is this. PF2e needs a local champion (in this case, me, who's became unabashedly a fan-boy) and if you can demo PF2e, especially the parts that make it different/special, people will accept it as part of their gaming rotation. In my little world. PF2e is the 2nd most popular system being run, its the 2nd most supported system by way of player investment in game materials (thanks to Humble), and has the most unique players of all games playing different PF2e games.
