[QUOTE="Benjamin Olson, post: 8150454, member: 6988941"] I've seen the video but don't really know Pathfinder 2e well enough to add much, except to say that a key part of his argument gets buried in deep in the video, namely that 5e has the same problems, it's just that PF2 adds a lot of complexity to get to what feels like the same place to him. I'll also add that he is a big 5e D&D youtuber who approaches his channel very much as an important income stream and although he goes on at the beginning about all his good will for Paizo, he nevertheless has a bias towards sticking to the game system where the videos generate the most views. He may have frustrations with the system from it just not helping to promote his channel as much as he would like. I know it's irritating to have a thread that sounds intriguing, perhaps right up your alley, but that you can't meaningfully participate in due to technical limitations or time commitments, but there are other threads to participate in in the forum if the media component makes this one not your cup of tea at the moment. I think video discussion threads fulfill a need created by the fact that youtube video comments are a vile hellscape of non-conversation usually heavily dominated by uninformed yahoos. [/QUOTE]
