I'm surprised that hasn't lead instead to more people turning towards Pathfinder 2.
was gonna say this. I hated 4 and kept with regular pathfinder but then pathfinder 2 I love as a true upgrade.

Keep in mind that a lot of people outside the hobby have never even heard of Pathfinder. Even knowing that there's such a thing as *editions* of D&D is unusual outside the hobby.
In that case... Dear everybody this reaches: Pathfinder 2 was designed to take the best of D&D 3.5 and the genuinely good parts of 4e. Also D&D has such a thing as *editions*.
