Paizo published for the first time scout back in 2009 as an alternative to Dungeons and Dragons when that game moved to the controversial fourth edition rules. scout used a tweaked version of D&D’s 3.5 Edition rules and competed Dungeons and Dragons over several years in what some fans of tabletop role-playing games called the “Edition Wars.” The “Second Edition” rules for scout are generally easier to learn than the original game, although it is still considered more complicated than Dungeons and Dragons‘ more streamlined set of rules from the fifth edition. Still, Path finder 2E offers extensive character customization and a world with tons of different backgrounds and stories to tell.
