How many people do you know who got interested in the game because of BG3? I imagine I’m not the only one.
I’ve always had a passing interest in it but my only friend who plays lives 8 hours away. I did a one shot campaign while visiting him years ago but I was totally overwhelmed. Now that I’ve played BG3 I’m thinking about finding a local game shop to meet some players…
Pathfinder (1st edition) was basically a cleaned up/ refined version of DND 3.5 Current versions of each system differ quite a bit more
DND 5e is much more user friendly and approachable system. Easier to learn and jump right in.
Pathfinder 2e is more complex, bit tougher to learn, but comes with a lot more options and flexibility.
Both give you similar experiences of playing DND, but the mechanics are different
Gotcha, that makes sense. The people I played with had been playing it for years and I had no idea what was going on lol
