I was playing D&D 5e up until January. Then, with the OGL fiasco I decided to try learning Pathfinder 2e. I have been playing through the Beginner Box for that and I like it a lot more than D&D already!

    It definitely can feel overwhelming, instead of looking at all options I usually just create an idea in my head then do my best to find an archetype that aligns with that option. I also just enjoy browsing archetypes in my free time thinking about potential characters I could build!

      making characters is also one of my favourite parts in RPGs lol. I imagine that it will be much more manageable after I’m a few characters in.

        Absolutely, I think even opting for rebuilt characters for your first few sessions is good, because sometimes it helps to get into it and actually see what you do and do not like about a particular character. All of which can ultimately lead you to having a better idea of what you really want!
