There are of course some weak points, and I’ll gladly expand upon them and any other points it if you’re interested. But I’ve really enjoyed my time in PF2e on both sides of the screen and consider it my TTRPG of choice currently, even as a 3.5 Grognard.
It’s still mostly a spells-per-day game, right? You probably don’t lose the first fight of the day because you can go nova
It’s been really interesting playing Vampire with a person who’s only ever played DND. We keep telling him “you can use your cool powers”. He keeps thinking it’s like a special move to save for a big encounter. No, you don’t have to come up with an elaborate scheme to get past the bouncer. You can just Dominate him. It’s a big shift in mind set!
Personally I hate the “save your cool powers for later” mode of play. I think Pathfinder 2e is less of that, but not free of it?
I like the “toolbox”, limited-resources mode of play from DnD but only if you’re actually playing one-shot adventures, where every get-together is one day, you can’t rest mid-session, and if you don’t get through the dungeon you aren’t allowed to continue next time without encounters restocking.
