5 stars if you love RPG's, but hate fun
On the whole, Wrath improves on Kingmaker, the game looks good and I have not encountered any game breaking bugs. combat balance is better in most cases, with a few random difficulty spikes. The story is decent, nothing amazing but strong enough to keep a person interested, plenty of story paths to choose, that will affect how the story progresses. The mythic path choices are well done adds variety to a second playthrough. Your companions are okay, most are forgettable with only a few of them having interesting backstories or plots in the campaign. I am mostly disappointed that every conversation with Dearan does not include the option to punch him in the face. Then there is Crusade mode. 1 word describes the crusade - frustrating. A shallow copy of Heroes of Might and Magic's combat with little actual strategy and horrendous balancing. It's not fun when your army units get annihilated in a single turn by a fireball casting enemy general with no counter or you waste 10+ turns wailing on a gargoyle that can't do sufficient damage to threaten your weakest units. Reinforcements are also a long time coming, which pretty much causes all gameplay to come to a grinding halt. There is the option to skip crusade mode, which also skips all associated quests and rewards. Tip for developers, if you need to add the option to automate or skip a core part of your gameplay experience then you need to go back to the drawing board. Adding to the frustration is the Pathfinder ruleset which is good in concept, but terrible in execution. If you looking to play a ranged class or spellcaster your going to spending your first couple of feat choices, negating the weaknesses forced upon you by the rule set. You also have up to 4 levels of defence to pierce when casting a spell, one failed roll and your limited spell slots are wasted. Spellcasters are more powerful later in the game, but that's cold comfort for a 60+ hour RPG. Overall, good, but occasionally VERY Frustrating
