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...
2e ended up a lot more aproachable, you can no longer accidentally create a completely useless character.
It's still a d20 system but it is quite a bit different.
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.
Yes, of course. I don't disagree with that.
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!
