I just found this community today and figured I'd kick off some discussion about what people are playing!

As for me, I'm running a cosmic horror campaign with some homebrew insanity rules. The players are stuck in an area with multidimensional beings, and a murderer who's killing those trying to help the players escape.

Normally I'm the forever GM and ran 2 and a bit 1E APs; but I'm playing in a Kingmaker game atm. We barely started and just leveled up to L2, but it's already great fun. Last combat encounter, a small bandit camp, my Swashbuckler/Wrestler just had the most incredible luck and basically 1-hit killed everything he touched. Sentry up a tree? Just athletics up the tree and dropkick the bandits sternum through his spine. Another 3 bandits met similarly brutal demises.

@ParanoidAndroid @supersonicstork I love how #Pathfinder2e is designed to allow the player to 'feel' their character get better as they level up. (Apparently not yours though, you're doing GREAT!)

Things like the slowly increasing proficiency bonus, feats that come online to make things easier (example: Quick Draw), and how the T/E/M/L levels bump up what's important to the character for a noticeable boost.

A boost that works because the math is so very well done.
