[QUOTE="ReshiIRE, post: 9272218, member: 7031231"] Where's your sources? Here's mine on Paizo stating that it was a mistake - said day 1 errata: [URL='https://paizo.com/pathfinder/faq']Pages 411: The text for the wounded condition was changed for consistency, but became consistent with the wrong piece of text. This would lead to much deadlier encounters! The following changes should ensure that death and dying works the way we intended.[/URL] [URL='https://www.reddit.com/r/Pathfinder2e/comments/crgobt/pathfinder_2e_errata_from_the_designers/']Day 1 errata is not unusual and some of it is pretty critical as well.[/URL] Saying they 'doubled down' by printing it makes zero sense, since remember, Mark Seifter had already left at that time of statement, and as far as I can tell, his clarification on the rule came [I]well after[/I] he had both left and that this issue had been pointed out, despite the fact that he was lead and could have corrected the rule had it been a mistake, [URL='https://pathfinderwiki.com/wiki/Mark_Seifter']as he left in 2022,[/URL] well after the initial set of errata. Which official challenges did Paizo triple down on? I was active on the Reddit at this time and never saw a post that confirmed this; that's why there was mass speculation in the first place. I think it's much more likely Paizo did make a mistake - which happens in any massive TTRPG rule book - then a conspiracy where they decide to randomly change a key rule in the game, double and triple down on it, and then change it via errata for... no sensible reason?? Hanlon's Razor is pretty useful here. Anyway this is in the [I]D&D [/I]forum so I won't go off topic anymore. [/QUOTE]
