Move to something that is completely alien, such as shadowrun. If it's too similar they'll just get ticked off.

>one of them is even saying that Pathfinder is the system to end all systems and that if I couldn't make that setting work in Pathfinder than he wouldn't play

>Step 1: Laugh in his face.

>Step 2: Call him a complete fucking mongoloid.

>Step 3: Introduce him to some games that aren't like the Pathfinder he likes up him.

Cthulhu-tech, GURPS, Old WOD, fuck it, introduce him to FATAL or RaHoWa. (last two aren't good or fun games, but you're just fucking with him by that point).

Use Shadowrun 4E or Cyberpunk 2020. Those are better for settings like that.

Pathfinder a shit. A SHIT!

Just half-assedly refluff everything while pretending that you had to do exorbitant amounts of work. Like crossbows become shotguns and yes, I know that PF has firearms, but fluffing firearms as firearms is not half-assed enough, bugbears become Ferrari Testarossas, orcs become niggers, and so on. If they complain about something, shame them by saying that you worked so hard on this and they have to be super-grateful and so on.

When they realize how awful it is, switch to GURPS.

>Use Shadowrun 4E or Cyberpunk 2020.

Mah violation of the 13th amendment.

Go Shadowrun if you want fantasy stuff, but I feel Cyberpunk 2020 is better fit to the ultra-violence of Hotline: Miami.

>They're not only super apprehensive at the idea of moving away from their god Pathfinder, but one of them is even saying that Pathfinder is the system to end all systems and that if I couldn't make that setting work in Pathfinder than he wouldn't play.

Tell him to leave and hit him with the door on the way out. Pathfuckers are even more annoying that 3.5e worshippers.

>80's neon-modern fantasy

WHERE DID YOU GO, NEON SKULL DEV?

But yeah, give him a different system. Shadowrun, Cyberpunk, GURPS, or even refluff a system like VeloCity or some shit. If he's too stubborn to play any system than pathfinder, let him miss out on the fun.

Hey, OP here. Shadowrun seems interesting. I've been trying to get into it for awhile but, like I said, the people I game with are very stubborn in parting with their PF security blanket. I'll suggest it and report back.

I know it's off topic but how is that show? I love the 80's aesthetic, but being a comedy central original kind of puts me off

>>226524

It's kind of like a slightly less good Archer with a dumb-ish protagonist. If it gets more seasons, it would probably get better, but the real draw is definitely the aesthetic which is neon-80s-as-fuck and it's pretty great.

>>226414

Well, if you don't mind Adam Koebel being a huge fucking faggot that also manages to be normally a pretty great GM and kinda cute, you should check Rollplay's Mirror Shades, OP.

Didn't watch it yet, though. Finishing Swan Song first.

If I'm remember it right, they went with 80s cyberpunk aesthethic - thus using 1st ed Shadowrun - with progressive hacks to make it work better.

Also

>PF

Go totally different from PF, so they can fully realize how shit of a system it is.

are pathfinderbabbies the most autistic cancer in the history of tabletop?

I literally never met worst people than pathfinder fanboys.

>pathfinderbabbies

I prefer to call them pigfuckers, or pukefaggots.

Kick the pathfinder autist out of your group straight up.

Someone should do a tweak of Lasers & Feelings called Neon & Violence
