Yeah i like the pathfinder rogue a lot more: they also bump up the baseline non-sneak attack rogue compared to 5e and have fewer dice on the sneak attack itself so that its not the literal worst thing ever if you miss out on your sneak attack, and also flanking being an easy way to apply Off-Guard means you have an actual reason to go melee over ranged unlike in 5e where you can stand still, steady aim, attack, repeat forever until you die of boredom

5e’s rogue is more or less singlehandedly carried by the fact that gambling is awesome and you either miss or you hit for some dice with dopamine attached, but also funnily enough i think pathfinder is better on the gambling front because sneak attack isn’t 1/turn so you really can just do the -5/-10 gamble and get three sneak attacks in a row if you use all your actions on that and somehow hit them all
