All of the game content is available for free. The only things they limit are some of the flavour text in the splatbooks and of course the adventure paths. All of the mechanical content is fully open. I think that’s a pretty good system.
No, the expansion content is free as well as the base. Every time a new PF2e content expansion book comes out, the entirety of the game mechanics in that book is freely available for anyone to use and redistribute. The only things for which that’s not the case are the adventure modules.
I don’t believe “fully” means what you think it means. If you loan me $100 to be fully repaid, I’m good just giving you $30 back, right? Cool cool. Send it right over.
IMO adventure modules aren’t a part of the game system. The game system is completely open. The adventures are extra. But even the mechanical content introduced in those adventures like unique items and monsters are made open.

I don’t disagree that it’s a good system. I run Pathfinder. I didn’t contest that it was a good system.
I didn’t suggest that’s what you were saying. I’m saying the content is fully open.
The base content is free, the entirety of PF1/2 is not “fully” open.

I mean, no, not all the content is fully open.
