    Pathfinder is closer to D&D than most other TTRPGs (not counting direct D&D derivatives)

    True, but anyone who thinks it's a drag and drop replacement is in for a headache

      It is actually a good strategy to dilute the term Dungeon Master into a general phrase, because that means Hasbro can't enforce their copyright. For instance, Aspirin is a brand name, but it's such a generic term that anyone in the US can call their product Aspirin without risk.

      We'll have to agree to disagree! I prefer using the game's defined term, or Game Master for general usage.

        Depends on which edition of DnD, frankly. Pathfinder 1e and 2e are quite mechanically different, as many DnD editions are to each other.

        I need to read up on Pathfinder 2e. I know the "joke" was that 1e was basically D&D 3.75... which was a bit too powergamey for my tastes, so I never even looked at 2e...

          It's Blindness/Deafness which has a duration of permanent (albeit dismissible by the caster)

            Ah! Whenever I'm talking to people about Pathfinder, it's always 2e. Sorta like people saying D&D and meaning 5(.5)e.

              It's still a d20 system but it is quite a bit different.

                    So can wizards quietly cast spells in a stealthy manner? Want to know if I ever get isekai'd into a pathfinder world.

                      same! I almost let it go assuming we were talking about a crit fail from 2e, but I had an itch in the back of my head telling me to check first

                        Y'all could have saved me the clicks if I had checked here first. I just went through this same thought process

                          I've just not had the excuse to look yet, my life is currently a bit too chaotic for a regular game, let alone one in another new system... I *am* working on an open game setting over at https://ttrpg.network/c/Canyonlands but don't have anything like a plan for actually running a game.

                              They're called GMs in Pathfinder 😉 Dungeon Master is a DnD term, and trademarked by WotC.

                                  AFAIK The (D) behind „permanent“ means „dismissable“ so the caster can end it any time they want.
