minus-squareTootSweet@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up17·10 months agoPathfinder 2e Remaster (which isn’t out yet) is the most “open source D&D” thing there will be any time soon. And Pathfinder 2e (non-Remaster) is the clostest thing there is right now.
minus-squareParadachshund@lemmy.todaylinkfedilinkarrow-up0·10 months agoWhat’s the remaster do to it? I’m sure it’s a lot, but does anyone have the cliff notes?
minus-squareFlumPHP@programming.devOPlinkfedilinkarrow-up3·10 months ago Small improvements and cosmetic changes appear throughout, but outside of a few minor changes in terminology, the changes are not anywhere substantive enough to be considered a new edition. Pathfinder Second Edition Remaster Project! Don’t quote me on it, but I’m pretty sure the remaster was about removing anything licensed under OGL so they could license it under ORC.
minus-squareKata1yst@kbin.sociallinkfedilinkarrow-up1·10 months agoYes, also allowed for a very nice balance and QoL pass on a few classes.
minus-squareFlumPHP@programming.devOPlinkfedilinkarrow-up2·10 months agoI think Tales of the Valiant is closer to D&D 5e and also licensed under ORC. Either is a great option for people looking to leave D&D though.
