Hey Ottawa! Bit of a long shot, but does anyone here know of a Pathfinder Society playgroup in town? I'd love to find one to join. Thanks!

I run PF2e, but not PFS. Organized play always seemed weird to me. Maybe check if any LGSs have it? If nothing else they should have D&D Adventurer's League

I guess I'm not looking for organized play specifically, but a game I could watch and maybe join in.

Wizard's Tower runs Adventurer's League for sure. I still need to check Fandom II.

Ah, well unfortunately my game is online only and full up.

I honestly can't imagine trying to play PF2e with pen and paper though. There's so much more to track than with 5e.

I hope you find what you're looking for. There are a lot of tabletop-friendly people and places in Ottawa, so you shouldn't have too much trouble.

Maybe try posting on /r/lfg over on the alien site as well.

Heh, I'm from the 3.5 era. I still find PF2e and 5e too streamlined 🤣

Yeah I hear people say that because of the 3 types of bonus. But there's also still like 30 conditions, as well as afflictions, skill actions, weapon traits, etc. it's a lot to manage. FoundryVTT is such a blessing for playing 2e. It automatically tracks everything.
