Pathfinder RPG: Pathfinder GM Core Pocket Edition (P2)

(Copied from my Player Core Pocket Edition review but it still applies.)I'm starting to develop a fondness for the pocket editions. Huge value for the money and still perfectly legible. Book is sturdy and it feels great to just flip through and reference.The game itself quickly became my system of choice as everything is designed to aid players and DMs alike. Incredible amount of player options, snappy and modular customization for DMs, quick on-the-fly adjustments... I could go on for hours but you're probably not here to be sold on the system itself.

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.

Well made and great illustrations.

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.

For the remastered Pathfinder second edition this is the second core book I recommend buying, Player Core being the first, and like the Player Core it's mostly a rehash of what came before. This is not a bad thing. For GMs just getting started this is a guide to what is possible with alternative rules for you to consider. It also a good overview of the default campaign world of Golarion. I bought the pocket edition for all four core books and while I am quite satisfied with my purchase others have different needs than me. No matter what size you order if you're going to run the remastered Pathfinder second edition this is a must have along with the Player Core, Player Core 2 and Monster Core.

It's not strictly necessary if you already have the Pathfinder 2E Core Rulebook, but it's a good update that better organizes the game rules.

This is a beautifully illustrated book. This was a gift for my son and he absolutely loved it.

Great way to do fantasy ttrpg that is not D&D.
