So i have sorta been in tabletop purgatory for the last couple of years trying to find the right game. I first tried the d&d 5th starter which was great. Then i saw that their books were poorly made and no pdfs were available instead. So i thought about pathfinder which looked amazing but had an overwelming amount of content to get. Then i thought how about starwars but then i realized how underpowered they made jedis. To me that made the game not have enough of the fantasy element i wanted. So now here comes starfinder with science fantasy and its new so i dont have to play catch up.
It seems perfect but after listening to every interview i can get my hands on i am starting to have concerns. Its brought up alot that magic is not as important because technology has replaced many of its uses. This makes sense but i hope they dont go too far with this. Are we still going to find magical armor or weapons? Or will every thing be like just attaching a magic ruin to a regular jacket or to a regular gun. I love the idea of mystical loot and i hope that's not going away. My other concern is will tech like laser guns make it impossible to play a melee hero. Laser guns are cool but im hoping ranged combat isnt the only viable combat.
