It's hard to say based on this article because it's a little vague, but the sense I get is that it's more like Pathfinder with feat trees, except that every ability comes from a feat (no class abilities) and you get a class feat every level. It sounds noticeably different from D&D, while still very much being a class-based system unlike games like M&M or CoC which use a point-based or skill-based system.
Saying it's not like D&D because it's more like Pathfinder is not a great argument, considering Pathfinder is essentially a split branch of D&D. And since the headline lists both D&D AND Pathfinder, it's still wrong.
Why are you coming across as "trying to be right on the Internet" rather than "engaging with what was said"?
I am engaging with what was said, I just don't agree with what was said.
