Because there's been some talk about not having enough content creators in the #Pathfinder2e space on Youtube I'd like to raise my hand and submit for your viewing my video on basic encounter design for the system.
Not begging for views but the numbers encourage more of it.

One of the things I've reminded myself upon reflection of this is in the end, the reason I so viciously defend PF2e actually has little to do with the game itself.
It's the underlying issues I have with people in the wider RPG space and how tired I am of poorly socialized, myopic behaviour.

The tacit level of culturally prevelent GM disrespect throughout the RPG scene PF2e has exposed is actually blackpilling. The number of times people say things like 'this is a game for GMs, not players' just proves to me how much of the culture is steeped in toxic power dynamics...

I don't know why I find this so fucking funny.
In one of the prototype versions of Yoshi's Island, the Baby Mario handover process is unfinished and does not always work. The Yoshi that should be waiting at the end is missing, and the playable Yoshi simply throws Baby Mario onto the ground, making him crawl off by himself.

So on less salty, more productive news: looking at Draconic Codex and I LOVE what they've done for dragon pacts, treating them as invested magic items.
Not only do I think it's better design than what they did for Pactbinder and the like, it opens the door for so many ideas. #ttrpg #pathfinder2e

![PACT OF THE HERALD AND HOST
RARE CONTRACT INVESTED MAGICAL ITEM 6
You have exchanged your voice for the authority and breath of your bound dragon. Your voice echoes with the dragon’s idiosyncrasies. You can cast fear as an innate spell once per day, with the spell’s tradition matching that of your bound dragon. Once per day, from any distance, your bound dragon can choose to take control of your voice. They dictate everything you say (or don’t say) for up to 10 minutes. They can choose to speak in any language you or they know, though they can’t use your voice to cast spells or activate items.
Activate—Breath of the Dragon [one-action] (concentrate) Frequency once per day; Effect You exhale a torrent of energy in a 30-foot cone or a 60-foot line, dealing 1d6 damage per level. Each creature in the area must attempt a basic saving throw against the higher of your class DC or spell DC. You can’t use this ability again for 1d4 rounds. The area, damage type, and type of saving throw match those of your draconic benefactor (page 207). This ability has the trait associated with the type of damage it deals.
Oathbreaker’s Calamity Should either party break the oath, your throat and mouth become swollen and elongated, preventing you from speaking any language but Draconic and causing any use of the Dragon Breath ability granted by this pact to also damage you. The dragon becomes deafened, but call still hear your voice.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:huwaelud6cyetek6gve27owb/bafkreihmd6deeb5hydf7krzzdf5tznwhd3h25icizbqaxnhbyue7gcrrti@jpeg)

As someone who was diagnosed ADHD two years ago, I'm increasingly realising that gaming forums dominated by people spending hours complaining about them being too hard and demanding them to be easier, instead of spending time getting better at them, is in fact peak ADHD behaviour.
