RPG Reviews: Dark Archive [Pathfinder 2nd Edition]

Hello Travelers & Tourists!

Welcome back to RPG Reviews! This week, I'll be taking a look at the newest book for Pathfinder 2nd Edition - Dark Archive! This book brings two new classes to Pathfinder 2e: The Psychic & the Thaumaturgist. On top of that, it adds a variety of new archetypes, feats, gear, & spells - and includes plenty of fun content for Game Masters as well.

All of this content is themed around "mysterious happenings" in the Golarion campaign setting, from cryptids to curses to temporal anomalies.

So, what does this book have to offer Pathfinder 2e tables? Are the secrets enticing or disappointing? Join me as I offer an overview of this new book - examining its strengths & weaknesses and discussing what sort of stories this new content supports!

Please note: This is an overview video. I will be doing deeper dives into specific content in future videos on this channel.

FULL DISCLOSURE: Paizo did provide me with a free pdf for purposes of doing a review - but they did not script this review in any way! The opinions in this video are strictly my own. However, as with any review on this channel, please remember that I always advise you to "Try Before You Buy" in order to get a full picture of what you would be purchasing.
