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.
This is good to hear. I've only played PF 1e, and am only now beginning to look into PF 2e.
