    I feel like it's mostly brand recognition. Are there any media tie-ins for pathfinder? I assume critical role and others like it are still D&D.

        Wrath of the Righteous is one of the best CRPGs ever. It’s better than Baldurs Gate 3 in so many ways and worse in some and honestly the ability to use Level 10 spells alone makes the combat far better.

          Hate that BG3 doesn't even let you get into the somewhat interesting later level abilities and spells, that's a fundamental 5e leveling problem though. Now WotR on the other hand lets you become a horrific avatar of decay and spread plagues across the land...

          Love the characters and presentation of BG3 and all, but I really want that ttrpg freedom and room for growth.

      It's 100% a brand recognition thing, but D&D has 50 years of being the face of all TTRPGs to Paizo's not even 20 of being the second most famous D&D-like TTRPG. Even in the TTRPG community plenty of people say "D&D" to refer to anything from Call of Cthulhu to Shadowrun.
