Pathfinder: Kingmaker - Imperial Edition Bundle

I tried

As someone who has recently started playing D&D, enjoyed several CRPGS (Divinity 2 and PoE2 in particular) i was looking for something a bit closer to the table top experience. So i bought PK and the first thing i noticed that was, if i had never played D&D i would have no idea what was going on. Im all for not having a game hold my hand and treat me like an idiot, but character creation assumes you have several tabletop campaigns under your belt. Combat is, well, heinous, and it makes everything feel like molases, its a messy blob of stuff happening that barely makes sense. Not having a turn based mode makes this unplayable for me. I also do not understand the obsesion with using a D20 system for a computer game. Dice are what we use because its the best thing to use for a tabletop game, since we have no computers to do it for us. In video games, we do. Its a different medium and should be treated as such. I gave it two stars as i don't think there is anyway i could like this game as is, but understand that many people do like it for what it is. This just isnt obvious. Its also well voice acted - what i experienced - and beautiful to look at.
