I recently got a bunch of Pathfinder 2e books and I'm finding the character creation way more engaging than 5e character creation tends to be. I love the way they've done ability scores. I feel like I can really hone my characters in a more intersting way. It feels like there's just a lot more flexibility and room to personalize thanks to all the free boosts you get from various sources. Getting boosts from background and class just feels more reasonable as well. I have not been at all interested in one D&D and haven't looked at any of the playtest materials. I'm perfectly in favor of them removing the set recial stat increases entirely, but I just don't care enough about it to want to go for it. I find the Pathfinder setting and 2e system way more interesting. Frankly the only reason I would turn to 5e now is A) the Scarred Lands setting, which I love and B), Pathfinder lacks warlocks, which are my favorite class.
