One of the greatest CRPGs of the 2020s
STORY & ROLE-PLAYING I think the greatest aspect of this game is how reactively it is written. Through the Mythic Path system, your game experience can vary quite dramatically, both in terms of gameplay as well as in story. Contrary to similar claims made by some other games, your choices in Pathfinder truly do matter a great deal. The dialogue also allows a great deal of defining the role you play. The main baddies are also mysterious and well-written. It's not as well written as Planescape Torment, but still it's really great. COMPANIONS Chris Avellone co-wrote this game. And it shows. Expect smart subversions of stereotypes, and interesting and sometimes even philosophical dialogue. The companions are strange, in a good way. You may love some, you may hate some, as it should be. COMBAT I usually play CRPGs for the story, role-playing, and the companions, not for the combat (i.e. I like games Planescape Torment, Disco Elysium, and Pentiment). So I was somewhat hesitant to play a combat-heavy game like Pathfinder WOTR. I am happy to say that I actually liked the combat. Owlcat made the good decision to fully allow for both RTWP and turn-based combat; Pathfinder WOTR excels at both. PUZZLES & MECHANICS The puzzles are poorly designed. An important part of puzzles is that certain clues must be given such that the player can figure it out, yet at the same time the player feels smart for solving the puzzles. The game handles this very poorly. I haven't played with crusade management, so I can't comment on that. CONCLUSION So, although the game is not perfect, I can very safely say that the positives greatly overshadow the negatives. I recommend this game to lovers of reactive CRPGs. Now, there have been some reviewers saying that the game has spyware and the EULA is shady. This is nonsense. The EULA is comparable to any other game, and there is no spyware of any kind (I ran all my anti-virus and anti-malware software on the game, and no hits were found).
