    Seriously. I gave it an honest shot, but it feels like nothing but an anemic shadow of 3.5.

    Like. I played 3.5 when it was new and had almost nothing in it, and there was still more in it than there is in 5e.

        I’ve never tried PF2e. 1e changed a lot from 3.5 in ways I strongly disliked, so I never really played much of it or tried 2e.

          2e and the three action economy, meaningful class balance, meaningful movement, and solid rules make it my go to.

          I haven’t played 5e but I haven’t found anything in it so far pf2e doesn’t seem to.do better.

          Certainly I’m liking DMing for it.

      It’s a really good way to get people into tabletop, since making characters is very straightforward and there’s not much they need to remember.

      …three campaigns later, I yearn for PF2e though.
