Pathfinder is very different mechanically to dnd

Is it though?

Depends on which edition of DnD, frankly. Pathfinder 1e and 2e are quite mechanically different, as many DnD editions are to each other.

I need to read up on Pathfinder 2e.

I know the "joke" was that 1e was basically D&D 3.75... which was a bit too powergamey for my tastes, so I never even looked at 2e...

It's still a d20 system but it is quite a bit different.

I've just not had the excuse to look yet, my life is currently a bit too chaotic for a regular game, let alone one in another new system...

I am working on an open game setting over at https://ttrpg.network/c/Canyonlands but don't have anything like a plan for actually running a game.

Good luck, fellow worldbuilder!

I guess it's all relative. I've played a handful of different TTRPGs, and d&d and pathfinder are much closer to each other than to things like VtM or BitD.

[-] iAmTheTot@sh.itjust.works 1 points 3 months ago

Yes, of course. I don't disagree with that.

2e ended up a lot more aproachable, you can no longer accidentally create a completely useless character.
