So, there are a lot of folks out there looking to give #Pathfinder2E a try, and I've been seeing this question quite a bit

Where do I start?

Well, let me help you on your quest, and please feel free to share this far and wide! 🧵1/12

If you're experienced with RPGs pick up the Pathfinder Core Rulebook! It has all the rules for players and GMs to get started, including character creation, playing the game, designing adventures, and even a primer on the World of Lost Omens (our setting)! 🧵2/12

If you plan on being the Game Master, might I also recommend picking up 1 or more of the Pathfinder Bestiaries! Each contains hundreds of monsters to add to your game, from familiar critters like vampires and minotaurs to beasts from our world, like the Leshy and Proteans! 🧵3/12

Now. If you are new to gaming or are looking for more of a guided introduction, check our the Pathfinder Beginnder Box! You can open this up and be playing within minutes! It contains pre-made PCs (and the rules to make your own), a starter adventure, dice, maps, and more! 🧵4/12

Those are the basics, now let's talk next steps. Most Pathfinder books come from one of three lines, Rulebooks, Lost Omens World Books, and Adventure Paths! Let's look at each to give you an idea of what they are about! 🧵5/12

Pathfinder Rulebooks expand options for PCs and provide new tools for GMs! The first to consider are the Advanced Player's Guide and the Gamemastery Guide! Other rulebooks are heavily themed to specific types of content, such as Secrets of Magic and Guns and Gears! 🧵6/12

Lost Omens books explore our setting (AKA Golarion)! Start with the overview books like the World Guide, Character Guide, and God's and Magic, but check out our deep dives, like The Mwangi Expanse or Absalom, City of Lost Omens! It's a whole new world for you to explore! 🧵7/12

Next up, Adventure Paths! Each Adventure Path is broken up over multiple volumes, released monthly, providing you with a complete campaign! We've also collected some into one book. Get started with the Abomintation Vaults, but if you're ready for a challenge try Kingmaker! 🧵8/12

And there is even more! If you want to play with people from around the world, check out the Pathfinder Society! It's a great source of short adventures, and you can take you PC to play at game stores and conventions as well! 🧵9/12

We also offer a wide variety of accessories, from maps and cards to dice and miniatures! You can find all these products and more at the @paizo website or at your local game store! We are having a sale right now to celebrate #OpenGaming! 🧵10/12

There is an entire world of adventure waiting for you in the Pathfinder RPG! I cannot begin to express how grateful we all are to see folks take joy in our games. You are always welcome at the Pathfinder Table! 🧵11/12

Now I am sure some of you have questions about Starfinder! So I am going to bounce you over to Managing Creative Director for the Starfinder team @OnCallGm to break down the basics of Starfinder and where to begin! 🧵12/12

Hmm.. turns out trying to upload 12 tweets and images from my phone caused a few of the images to get corrupted. That's irritating.
