Fed up of D&D? Pathfinder's biggest rival is cheaper than ever

An "Introduction to Pathfinder 2nd Edition" bundle offers 26 PDF products for $14.99 at Fanatical rather than $458 (or £13.15 rather than £369, if you're based in the UK). It includes the up-to-date core rules — the Player, GM, and Monster rulebooks — alongside the hugely popular Abomination Vaults adventure, plus character and world guides, battlemaps and more.

In essence, it’s a one-stop shop for one of the best tabletop RPGs that isn’t D&D. Pathfinder launched in 2009 as a response to unpopular changes made in D&D at the time, essentially a throwback to third-edition Dungeons & Dragons after a controversial shift to fourth-edition.

It has become the defacto challenger to D&D, offering a deeper, "crunchier" system and a broader, more varied world that explores settings inspired by cultures and mythology beyond Western medieval fantasy in a respectful way.
