Many recommend D&D 5e over Pathfinder 2e to new TTRPG players, saying it is "simpler." But I think PF2 has a more approachable/better beginner product in the Beginner Box. And, while PF2 is more complex, there are 20 ways it's simpler than D&D. Here's my list!
0:00 Intro
1:29 Critical hits
2:12 Fall damage
2:59 Number of attacks
5:20 Additional dice
6:33 Stacking effects
8:46 Opposed rolls
10:09 Being vigilant
12:08 Economy
14:14 Encumbrance
15:27 Exhaustion
16:50 Resource tracking
18:31 Encounter building
21:16 Multiclassing
23:56 Surprise
26:59 Invisibility
32:11 Traits
34:53 Advantage/disadvantage
42:37 Action economy
48:28 Spellcasting
51:10 Concentration
52:50 One more thing!
53:51 Closing statement
Here's a post where the top comment shows that it's possible to get above +100 on an attack in D&D 5e. (Extreme, yes, but lists a bunch of effects that stack): https://rpg.stackexchange.com/questions/170826/how-high-can-the-bonus-to-an-attack-roll-get
