The problem with 4th edition D&D (and a little with 5 edition) is that everything was structured to were there was no difference between the choices made throughout the character's career. From cookie cutter classes that only had names that were different between them to each having the same progression throughout, it was the most generic system produced. Yes, more than even GURPS.

PF2 does not have this problem. It does take some good mechanics that current systems have, some that 4th edition introduced or used, and an underlining structure that is more defined than the first iteration of Pathfinder. There is also a lot of room to grow as well as choices that can take a character in markedly different directions.

PF1 should come to HLO here soon, and I am sure other licenses will be forthcoming. For now, HLC is still here for us to use for PF1, M&M and other licenses. Newer games, though, will go through the new shiny.
