[QUOTE="Charlaquin, post: 7736743, member: 6779196"] Yeah, I like 5e and I still think it's ridiculous to assume PF2 is going to be a 5e knockoff. 5e fans already have 5e, and PF fans already don't want to play 5e, so making PF2 a 5e knockoff would be an absolutely terrible idea, and I'm pretty sure Paizo is well aware of that. What they need to do if they want PF2 to be successful is make it its own, unique product, not knocking off any version of D&D, but that stays true to the feel of Pathfinder. Refine and accentuate the parts of the game that make it uniquely Pathfinder, and prune the bits that are only there to make it more like D&D 3.5. I'm excited, even as someone who never cared for PF1. Good for Paizo for continuing to evolve their game, and good on them for keeping PF1 available for those who end up preferring it over PF2.
