As a trained grass toucher, I have proficiency so that would be: rolls dice 22 total.

2e is weirder and more sexualized

My man did not play the same PF1e that I did.

Also, both games achieve different things. Neither is "better', you just like 1e more, congrats.

He dislikes 2e

It's.. more.. sexualized? What? Could you explain that part to me lmao

[–] Nerorero@lemmy.blahaj.zone 8 points 1 year ago (1 children)

They just are old enough now to understand that paizo is a proud lgbt+ supporter and blame 2e

Kinda my thoughts but I wanted to see if it was actually just "PF2E bad because it's canon is inclusive" or if there was something I was missing.

PF1 is 3X based and therefore unplayable garbage. PF2 is an actually functional game.

Disagree, and you can pry my unplayable garbage from my cold dead hands

This is a fever dream take lol

My man. The only group I've ever convinced to play GURPS had previously preferred Shadowrun 5e and Pathfinder 1e for all the highly specific rules. But your autism levels are clearly higher than any of us

PF2e actually exists because of D&D 5e. 5e is a streamlined and (most people believe) improved version of 3.5, which is exactly what PF1e is under a different label. But to appeal to their rebellious hipster demographic the new PF had to be different and innovative. So you get a bunch of overly complex rules for options and the sake of just being like D&D but still totally not D&D. The result is a decent game that definitely isn't 5e because it intentionally trades off most of the streamlining that makes 5e more approachable for the sake of complexity and options.

Basically it's a bunch of pretentious hipster BS.
