I've been playing and GMing PF2E for a couple years now, but I started playing TTRPGs back in the late 70s. As far as D20 systems go, this is the best balanced and most complete system available. If you love D&D 5e, more power to you, but it's a sloppy, hot mess by comparison. There are rules for nearly any circumstance available to GMs and Players, but more importantly, those rules, by and large, all work the same way - once you have the gist of how Pathfinder 2e works, it becomes very intuitive. Combat in nearly any system that is tactically-based is going to be slow. PF2e monsters are built to make them more than just bags of hitpoints and a tough hide. Nearly every one of them has something interesting in terms of powers and abilities that help make combats more dynamic and interesting. For Players, character options are off the hook! You can build 100 characters and never have two that feel exactly the same. Ultimately, Pathfinder 2e is the superior D20 system, and if you haven't tried it yet, I strongly recommend finding a game and giving it a sincere try. I think you'll be pleasantly surprised.

Ray is very conscientious about every decision he makes during the course of his game, and his preparation is always on-point! IMO, he sincerely cares about his players and the level of fun they experience in his games. Whole-heartedly recommend!

This is after my first session with Travis: So far, so good. Solid rules knowledge, fully prepared despite getting further along in the story than he'd expected, and worked with me off-line to integrate my character. These are all good marks, so yeah; so far, so good.

Ambitosis has a comfortingly laid-back demeanor that helps to make everyone feel that "everything is just totally OK." For new players this would be an important boon. He is prepared with lots of visual aids, and (I feel) most importantly, you never feel like he's about to step on RP to push "his" plot along - the pace is yours, and he'll gleefully step in to help fill out the world around whatever you want to do. Fully worth every penny!
