Finding it difficult to wait for the PF2E remaster. I have a Westmarch game that I'm itching to start with friends and we don't want to start until everyone has access to the new books, the PF2E Foundry module is updated, and a character builder is current. Hopefully not too long after. >.<

I think one of the worst quirks of online spaces is the idea that if someone doesn't post about something, they don't care about it. It encourages performative posting often makes things worse.
I care a lot. I just don't want to add another poorly-informed voice. I'm reading & thinking.
