I am not excited at all by this. I know I'll get thrashed by saying so, but I think the game is perfect as it is now.

That's pretty good for you, because then, you are already set. Don't need to buy anything else, with or without a new edition, so don't care about this, and be happy with what you have.

Right, but won't be supported anymore (as of 2019, if I read correctly). What if I liek that 2nd Ed? No way I'm buying a new Core Rulebook (70 Canadian $), another Campaign and GM guide, and 5 r 6 Monster manuals...

Skill system probably won't be the same, feats won't be the same, combat is already determined to not work the same way.

Yeah, the 2nd Edition of Pathfinder is going to be a different animal than what currently players are use to doing today.

Yes, they have already said that as of 2019 they will no longer be making new material for Pathfinder 1st Edition but they will continue to sell the books as long as people are interested in buying them.

I have personally seen people discuss rules from Dungeons and Dragons 3.0 on Reddit messageboards recently, a whole community that never come over to Pathfinder or followed in the other editions of D&D. Base off some of the comments about this update, there is going to be a lot of people wanting to just stick with Pathfinder, just got to find a group and you're good. An RPG is not the same as a video game not having any future support, you have all the RAW material to craft/play in adventures for years.

Please don't take this post as being negative, just trying to shine some light your way.

Just wanted to throw in my two cents into this major news…..YES!!!!!!!!!! All of the changes honestly feel like it’s addressing issues I’ve been having with Pathfinder for a while now. I still own my physical Beta Copy and have been running games with Pathfinder since then both in person and on Roll20. I couldn’t even begin to think about how many hours I’ve put into either prepping games, playing games, or researching Pathfinder stuff. I think most people agree that recently Pathfinder has been showing more issues with the newer books.

All the stuff that’s been hinted at so far just seem like natural improvements on the current system. My hope that 2nd Edition finds itself between Pathfinder 1st Edition and D&D 5th Edition; more options than 5th but smoother all around than Pathfinder 1st Edition.

Thanks for taking the risk with this Paizo Staff.

I always play male characters (As a Forever GM it's not a long list of Characters) and they are usually Good aligned. When I first started in the 3.5 days, I would always go Half-Orc but I tend to really any race at this point.

Most of my characters will be religious to a particular god, even if they are not a cleric/paladin. I'll have my character have a holy symbol and say prayers to their God in time of need.

Not too long ago I discovered a passion for playing the Starscream scheming coward type of character, it's SO much fun to play a character like that. I was worried it would be a problem in a group setting but when I had my character scream in a high pitched voice after failing a fear save while trying to run away, I had the other players falling over laughing.

After playing a full caster for two years of Rise of the Runelords, I think I'm done with playing them for a long time (Feels like work keeping up with all the spells) and skill based characters is where my heart is anyway.

We have about 45 more events to enter.

For the record, we thank you and the Paizo staff for all that you guys do : )

Westcrown - City within Cheliax, Empire of Devils.

My first Pathfinder Adventure Path was Council of Thieves and I put a lot of work into the City of Westcrown before the game began. I loved the feel of the city and Cheliax as a nation to play in. My players loved to hate the Cheliax government and being the rebels. Also, I loved using the Hellknights as bad guys during the campaign.
