Pathfinder: Wrath of the Righteous - Enhanced Edition

Wrath of the Righteous is a mixed bag. On the one hand, its representation of the Pathfinder ruleset is pretty rock-solid, and the combat system works beautifully. When the game is good, it's really, really good. Unfortunately, the developers seem to have been determined to undermine that fun wherever they could. Being in charge of an army, for example, is a neat idea, but it's terribly boring in practice. You can automate it (essentially succeeding at that layer of the game automatically), but doing so locks you out of being able to acquire treasures that you might need for your party. Then there's a battle that shows up in the second chapter, a massive slog that took 29 rounds and over an hour of play time. It's one of the most miserable experiences I've ever had playing a CPRG. Never mind the bugs. Those are likely to be patched out in the near future. When WotR wants to be fun, it is - but there are just too many places where it feels like it wants you to suffer for that fun.

The game itself was fun, even if the writing was a little trite and blahzee. Don't be evil I'll just say that. The mechanics were solid and I was enjoying the experience. Gameplay is a good time. Then at the start of Chapter 2, which is early on in the experience I suspect, the game crashed and burned and is currently unplayable. I'm not happy. Maybe wait a little while on this one so that the devs can re-release it without game breaking bugs.

I love these games. but it has two major issues. the first is the spyware / EULA, which is clearly the work of some idiot marketing tool. bad bad move, and they should've known better. the second is harder for them to correct, unfortunately. their engine is incapable of doing the things they're asking of it. constant massive slowdowns even on brand new top of the line hardware. incredible bugs in pathing (ironic!), AI, and interactions with the world. the last game had these issues, but they've gotten even worse in this one, making what should be a great experience a lot more frustrating than it should be. QA on this one seems rushed, and it's a real shame. the game itself is great, but I can't recommend it in good conscience.

Great game, but. BIG BUT + So many classes, archetypes, races, feats... The character building is 95/100. + Classic Isometric RPG + Good options. Difficulty, Auto-pause + Act 4 city is just great /Neutral/It uses Patfinder 1E. RTwP+TB mode. It looks prettier and more flashier, but I liked cartoonish art of Kingmaker more. -Writing is kinda bad, it is interesting, but the way dialoges were written is not immersive. Most companions talk like they are modern teenagers. not born of medival fantasy land where demons are just around the corner. -Bugs, so many bugs with classes. It is way better than Kingmaker and it has way less quest and story bugs, but with added classes they introduced new bugs with them. -At the end you just want to quickly go through "act 6" to the end.

This is the best fantasy cRPG out there if you enjoy complex character builds and optimization with tons of customization options to create almost any type of character you can think of. With the mythic paths you can live your fantasy of becoming a lich, demon, angel and many more with unique powers and story to enhance the gameplay experience. It can be intimidating at first, but with tons of difficulty options you're allowed to make mistakes and aren't punished too hard for it, later when you're more familiar with the game systems you can really get creative and build your team for maximum synergy and power. For higher difficulty the mod "bubble buffs" is highly recommended, since it completely removes the tedious buffing before every fight, which at higher difficulties is mandatory.
