The two games offer different pros and cons, and different people will assign different values to those strong and weak points, which means everyone has a unique personal final score for the two.D&D 5e is a simpler system. This makes it better for people who play casually, better for people who don't engage deeply with the rules, and better for people who just want to sit down to play once a week and not devote a lot of time to homework in between sessions. However, people who crave complexity and deep tactical engagement may find themselves craving more.D&D 5e is the more traditionally D&D feeling game. For some people that's a major selling point. They've been playing D&D for years, if not decades. It's safe, familiar, comforting. Like a family house or a home cooked meal, even the little quirks have a nostalgia attached to them. They don't want to play the best reviewed fantasy RPG, they want to play Dungeons & Dragon.Will some people enjoy PF2e more than D&D 5e? Certainly. Will everyone? Absolutely not. Is it easier to fit 5e to your group than to fit your group PF? I think so, which is why my group runs it. We'd have to replace a third of the players if we tried to jump to PF, and as we're friends first who game together because we're friends that's not really in the cards.</blockquote>
