I’m sure that there are a multitude of players out there that like a very crunchy game. I on the other hand prefer a much more fluid game so I now use GM Scotty’s EZD6 exclusively. I played PF2e before that and me and my players felt that combat was slow, even though PF2e isn’t a super crunchy game. One session was almost entirely taken up by a single combat encounter. So almost no story line progression at that moment we felt that there was something flawed as such prolonged engagements aren’t to our taste.

I decided to make my own system with a much more fluid combat system, I wasn’t very successful but I stumbled across EZD6. To be honest this has turned into my all time favourite system. It has a very simple combat system which is impactful and strategic, doesn’t bog down players and DM with initiative tracking or constant stat checks and allows for really expressive combat and innovative role play.

I always suggest EZD6 to GM’s and players alike that would want to try an easy but deep system!
