I posted a few months ago that my group was starting Pathfinder, and it turns out we really are now. Session 0 is in 2 weeks.

      2E Remastered started coming out in November 2023. Mechanically it is a very lightly polished version of 2E. It was created as response to WotCs OGL shenanigans and mostly consists of removing and replacing anything that their lawyers thought might be construed as covered by WotCs OGL bullshit and then released under the new ORC license.

      To add a little more detail, the primary differences are:

      1. A bunch of things got renamed on the advice of lawyers or to make things clearer. e.gs Magic Missile ->Force Barrage, Spell Level -> Spell Rank
      2. Alignment got removed and replaced with Sanctification (holy or unholy), Anathema and Edicts
      3. Wizard Schools got reworked for lawyer reasons
      4. Witch Class got some reworking
      5. Lots of ancestries, monsters, and items got renamed, sometimes with small changes, for lawyer reasons. E.g Dragons are no longer color coded, but more based on different mythologies and archetypes.
