minus-squareTootSweet@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up21·11 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-squareFlumPHP@programming.devOPlinkfedilinkarrow-up13·11 months agoPathfinder 1e had a good license and would be very familiar to D&D 3e players. Pathfinder 2e has a great license but would have a bit of a relearning curve for D&D 5e players. Tales of the Valiant is probably the closest to 5e with a great license.
