"Pathfinder 2e: Mastering Wizardry without D&D Influence"
Pathfinder, a tabletop role-playing game, has released remastered rulebooks to distance itself from Dungeons & Dragons (D&D) and avoid future licensing conflicts. The changes include renaming mechanics, fictional languages, and character ancestries, as well as introducing new dragons tied to different sources of magic. Paizo has also created its own alternative to the D&D Open Gaming License called the Open RPG Creative License. The remastered rulebooks redefine key elements of D&D, such as replacing alignment with edicts and anathema, and simplifying ability scores. The revisions also address criticisms of Pathfinder 2E, making the game more accessible and inviting to players.
