Pathfinder: Kingmaker - Enhanced Plus Edition

The game is broken both technicaly and from a design perspective. I wanted to wait untill I finished the game in order to leave a review but found that I cant finish the game. It's that broken. No matter what pc you use you will spend alot of your time looking at loading screens while you run around trying to figure out what you are supposed to do, only to find out that a glich made it so that a cutscene didnt start witch is why you got stuck in the first place. Playing this game was a huge waste of my time. It promises baulders gate but delivers a broken experience

Overall it is a good game, well written, interesting characters, nice premise. I really enjoyed the game. I was really enjoying the game, following the main quest by tracking a traitor to Old Sycamore. That is where it all went wrong. Old Sycamore has an optional fight where you can attack a group of talking wolves. They are easily several levels above your party. He one shotted my tank and then went on to take down the whole party easily. This wouldn't be so bad if it was an isolated instance. Just level up my party and come back, right? Wrong. There was a tremendous centipede in an underground dungeon nearby, as well as a giant spider. They both one shotted my entire party. It seems there idea to boss fights is to buff them to the point where your party is nothing but cannon fodder. I also lost several random encounters due to bad rng roles where I missed dozens of times and they kept hitting me. These were not boss fights, just random mob fights along the side of the road. I wish I could recommend this game, I really do. But until they fix the horrible balance issues please do not waste your money. Note that I have played Pillars of Eternity, which had some combat problems, but not as bad as this. I also played Tyranny, Divinity: Original Sin, and Torment: Tides of Numenera, so I am not new to this type of game. Also, I was play on easy mode.

I don't review games as I generally tend to think of purchasing a video as a fairly personal experience. Having said that I would recommend this RPG for anyone who enjoys RPGs. Based on the very balanced and User friendly Pathfinder ruleset (which was mostly lifted from D&D 3.0 and simplified) you can create any kind of character you want. Dual-wielding Wizard? Do it. Cleric as tank? Why not. Lightly armored Fighter who is a master of the dagger...uh...yeah...sure, go ahead. But where this game really separates itself is in how attached to reality of the world it is. Time matters, the weather matters, the season's change as the year rolls by and you can waste a lot of good chances to improve your character and your kingdom if you play in a way many RPGs play. If you stumble upon a quest and you haven't saved in awhile, check when said quest needs to be accomplished because you won't just bemoan the loss of XP and loot. You could have just created a hairier situation for yourself with no way of going back. Some folks seem to be harping on how some encounters are too hard or impossible, even. There have been 2 times where I went back to a save point and avoided an encounter until I leveled up. The choice was both mine to engage and mine to avoid. There are no mandatory impossible encounters. Just a word of advice (although, frankly, if you're playing an RPG one ought to know discretion is the better part of valor) SAVE. Save before you level up, save when you beat a hard opponent, save before resting, just do it: save. Enjoy this game for it is nuanced and is meant to be played in a variety of styles. Alignment matters, party content not so much, enjoy the camping food recipes, and for the love of Cthulhu SAVE!

I read some good views, thought most bugs have been fixed and bought the game. Th The first two days' plays are fine. But after update to 1.05 all old saves are broken and the game crashes on new game. So disappionting.

Игра не идеальна, многое можно было бы сделать еще лучше, детальнее, вариативнее и разнообразнее. Кое где встречаются откровенные недоделки. Да и баги все еще изредка встречаюся, хоть их и осталось немного по сравнению с тем, что было на релизе (судя по форумам). Но... не смотря на перечисленные выше недостатки, игра великолепна! Очень давно я не встречал игр, которые могли бы заставить меня изо дня в день засиживаться до глубокой ночи. Если идея скрестить RPG с симулятором управления средневековым королевством кажется вам интересной, то очень советую попробовать. Отдельного упоминания заслуживают отличные квесты и великолепный юмор!!! Повествование заслуживает всяческих похвал! Лично для меня это RPG года, а скорее даже нескольких лет (правда мимо меня прошел один проект от Larian Studios, который, судя по отзывам, достоин претендовать на это звание).
