I have a lot of concerns about PF2, most notably about the power level of non casting classes at early levels. But it is also good to vocalize things that I find nice.
And damn you nailed backgrounds. Clearer than in 5E or a lots of other games, and way better than Starfinder where most of them were weak. It gives a story, leaves room for imagination and customization, and gives useful gameplay advantages.
Yes. This is good!
To be honest my only issue so far is really about the lack of « Wow! » effect at early levels for the majority of classes. However the system seems damn good for me (4 types of failures/sucess, magic and spells, proficiencies, anathemas).
The waiting for the playtest is slowly getting harder!
I'm curious why this couldn't have been said in the Backgrounds blog thread.
