Those of us who play D&D in an iteration other than 5e, what do you play and why?

Does Pathfinder count? Cause I'm playing 2e right now.

For sure! How do you like it compared for D&D? I liked the idea of having one chonky volume instead of three core manuals.

But a lot of expansion books too. I like that all rules are legally available for free for Pathfinder on Archives of Nethys. It really lowers the barrier of entry for people who want to try the system or TTRPGs in general.

I prefer P2E generally. It's not the perfect system, but it solved a lot of my complaints I'd had with other systems. Combat is generally pretty fluid and feats for out of combat utility are nice.

Sadly p2e is going to be splitting up into three books later this year so they can purge OGL content from their core books. Good news though that means the hardcover books will get all the errata that's come out, and they're even reworking some of the lackluster stuff.

waaaat? Three books for Pathfinder?? I hope they are a little less expensive.
