One time, it was halflings. All halflings. Pipes and breakfasts and gardening small-talk, all the time.

Tabletop Rpg posts, content, and recruitment posts.
Recruitment posts should contain what system is being played, CW for any adult/serious themes players need to be aware of and whether a game is beginner friendly.
An obvious reminder of no racism, sexism, ableism, homophobia and transphobia.
Emphasis on small independent rpgs like the ones in the TTRPGs for Trans Rights in Texas but not against dnd stuff.

honestly really cannot recommend pf2e enough. its codified, not just vibes based or an unspoken rule. if you arent setting up to help allies and do some teamwork, youre gonna fail, and theres more options to metagame jerking your buddy off so that he gets big crits than anything else. also ive dmed it some times, and the amount of work for the dm is drastically reduced, to the point that adlibbing with minimal planning is trivial to do, the monsters are mathed out and actually make sense for their levels. no guesswork involved.
if you havent tried it, id recommend the beginners box, best ttrpg product ive ever gotten. basically a prebuilt boardgame worth of stuff but its a ttrpg.
I have no regrets switching over myself. "D&D One" licensing and rent-seeking skullduggery was a repeat of the same skullduggery that lead to Paizo quitting the D&D franchise to begin with.
ohh youve already swapped? how youve been liking it? lmk if you need any tips, we've been playing it since 2e came out. and we bought like almost all the products for 2e after they became a union shop, we know some of the people who work at paizo personally too.
and when i say ive been trying to break the system for years, i mean it. i do almost daily research of pf2e for my games. its such a well designed system.
I've been enjoying it even if converting over has had a lot of unlearning/relearning snags from leaving 5th edition. So far so good but I have a ways to go.
yeah when i recently played baldurs gate i actually had the opposite problem. mostly i was just shocked how i put up with 5e for so long
