Board games like Pathfinder Quest might be the way forward for TTRPGs

Pathfinder Quest, a board game inspired by the legendary tabletop RPG, is Paizo's newest solution to the age-old problem of 'onboarding'.
It's a co-op fantasy adventure board game where one to four adventurers hack, slash, and talk their way through a campaign's worth of scenarios.
Unlike hefty dungeon crawlers like Gloomhaven, Pathfinder Quest aims to juggle strategic depth and ease of use.
It's a board game first, but it certainly sounds like a great stepping stone for roleplay-curious board gamers.
Bulmahn reminds us that tabletop games haven't always been this simple to get to the table - and roleplaying games are definitely taking notes from board games.
