Difference In Editions Old Ones

[Stone Gargoyle]

I was sent a copy of Old Ones first edition by mistake when I thought I had ordered the second edition book. I am not too thrilled by the first edition book and am wondering if it is worth my time and money to get the second edition book. What are the main differences?

IIRC, the main things are that the classes and NPCs were converted to 2nd edition rules (ie: SDC & PPE). I don't recall any world information being changed, with the exception that the calendar from 1st Ed was removed, and thus histories are presented as "'x' years ago event 'a' happened" instead of something like "'yyyy' event 'a' happened." But for the most part you'll be fine with a 1st Ed copy.

Was it Palladium Books that sent it to you? Just wondering because I haven't seen a 1st ed PFRPG book in a store or at a Open House in like a decade.

No, I bought it on Amazon from a bookseller that claimed it was Amazon's error.

Are the classes reprinted elsewhere? I don't want to buy the book just for the updated classes.

AFAIK they're not.
