Personally, I prefer Pathfinder (2e for me, but 1e is tons of fun too).

I think the big thing that keeps me coming back to Pathfinder over 5e (I am running a game for newbies in 5e because they probably don’t want to complexity) is that there are actual, hard rules for almost anything you might want to do in the entirety of the game. DnD is always advertised as “do whatever you want and the DM will tell you how it goes!” but the rules for 5e are so combat-focused and simplistic that the DM will inevitably end up homebrewing…well, 80% of the game unless you players or crazily combat focused. Whereas 2e has extensive and widely available rules for freaking everything and it makes it feel so much more like a world compared to 5e. Also, their adventure paths are so awesome and exciting compared to 5e campaigns IMO.

I also am not a big fan of WOTC lately, so that is helping me stick to Pathfinder. Also, they are very LGBTQIA+ friendly!

Really excited for Rowdy Rogue with martial weapons. Made one the other day and was disappointed in my best option being the longspear.

I really wanted a yao yao, so I was willing to pull for Kazuha and I wouldn’t be THAT sad that I got him (had like 50 pulls).

Got 2 heizou. Heizou and Bell. Heizou and catalyst. Kazuha and Heizou.

Oh well. At least I fucking love heizou.

Yeah I agree, honestly I just get real sick of corporate assholes and get unreasonably angry, so I don’t want to “give-in”. I’ve been going back on RIF to spread word of Lemmy to see what I can do, but come July 1st, that won’t really be an option anymore since I’ll have to navigate through their ad-ridden app and will eventually give them money.

To be fair, I haven’t watched the new trailer yet, but I’d never pre-order a Bethesda game. I don’t know if I’m even interested in it on release, might wait for mods etc.

I also feel like I remember some of the devs saying they “needed more time because they didn’t want to be the next cyberpunk” which honestly doesn’t feel like the devs have full faith in their own project? I don’t know. Either way, I’m happy to wait and see.

Personally I prefer Community, it is nicely neutral and conveys the correct message I think. If people think that’s too broad, then “sub” is a solid short option.
