I highly recommend Pathfinder 2e if folks were wondering what to play instead of dnd 5e. Easily the best ttrpg action system I've tried.
Agreed, we’re about half a year and halfway through Abomination Vaults right now. Using PF2e with Foundry VTT has been amazing, especially with all the built-in automation.
The thing I like most about Pathfinder is how well documented their rules are. 5e had a bunch of hand wavy DM-fiat rules, while PF2e typically has a rule for almost everything.
Our discord server has moved entirely to new systems and it's all better; CoC, DCC, PbtA, PF2e, SWADE, etc.
Yeah we tried a few other systems after our main 5e campaign ended. Ars Magica, Lancer, WH40k Wrath and Glory, Blades in the Dark, Cyberpunk Red. My group is not one for roleplaying much, so we prefer crunchy systems. Lancer was great for that, and so is Pathfinder 2e.
