D&D v. Pathfinder: Is Bounded Accuracy better than PF2's big numbers? (Rules Lawyer chat w/ MrRhexx)

People should know the context for these conversations: MrRhexx wanted to express misgivings he has about Pathfinder 2e before publishing his own video about Pathfinder 2e, as a way of doing 'research' to not say something flatly wrong or ignorant about what the other side is. So the whole nature of the conversation is focused on what gives him pause about PF2. He also homebrews 5e and bans spells, and does the extra work a DM needs to do to make combat fun and exciting in 5e, especially at high levels. And he has no "rose-colored glasses" about WOTC's shortcomings in this regard. He loves the combat in Pathfinder 2e and wants to keep playing in the campaign!

=========
MrRhexx (a D&D content creator) and I chatted for THREE HOURS after our 2nd session of ABOMINATION VAULTS, where he and other D&D Tubers have been learning Pathfinder 2e. MrRhexx he brought up questions and concerns that he's been having about the system.

This is the third of four excerpts that I'll be posting this week on the channel. (The full 3-hour conversation is on Patreon.)
