Pathfinder RPG: Pathfinder GM Core (P2)

The rules from this book originate from the Pathfinder 2E Core Rulebook and GM Mastery book. Except Paizo have somehow managed to take two books which have gone through multiple revised printings, and make a whole new set of errors.And as per the Core Player book, this is a big step back in quality compared to the 4th printing of the pre-remaster Core Rulebook. New players should avoid this, at least until a reprint corrects it (but warning - even the current errata doesn't include the likes of the issues below, so its blindingly obvious stuff that may not get fixed and will confuse new players).For example, the first thing many new GMs will face is party size - not playing with a standard party of 4? Page 56 has a Party Size section that tells you the rules for building encounters on page 57 describe how to handle this. Except the information is actually on pages 75 and 76.There is a growing list of errata (unforgiveable in my view for a book who's content is mostly copy-and-paste from other material that has gone through years of revision) available on the Paizo site, so if you do have the misfortune to buy this book in its current form, you should definitely check it out.The book presentation is good, but terrible quality control on the content.

Fantastic quality as expected. My only gripe is the layout and common things to look for aren't really logical in placement within the covers. Though, likely because the neurodivergent is a little different.

Good looking, well presented, reorganized core rules. Separation between it and player core seems more effective than the pre-remaster versions. As a GM I chose this in hardback and the player core in pocket edition. In retrospect I think my Player Core will get more use since much of the session mechanics are in that volume.

Very user friendly.Couldnt ask for a better layout.

If you’re a game master for any ttrpg I would recommend this book. I’m very pleased with the revised edition and love the quality of the hard cover, it’s a beautiful book with awesome content.

Obviously a great resource for the game it's written for. I really like the quality of the physical book though. The print quality is good, the binding is solid, and it has lots of full colour illustrations. It is a well-crafted product.
