Lisa Stevens the paizo CEO said it was game and not the mmo. She did say they were talking about one kind of game and implied that obsidian called them.

What do you know, it is a card game. On tablets! https://www.facebook.com/obsidian/photos/a.110496711592.93660.82956101592/10152311110131593/?type=1

OBSIDIAN ANNOUNCES PATHFINDER LICENSE

Obsidian to partner with Paizo Inc. to release electronic Pathfinder games

INDIANAPOLIS -- August 13, 2014 -- Obsidian Entertainment, the developer of Fallout: New Vegas, South Park: the Stick of Truth and the Kickstarter phenomenon Pillars of Eternity, announced that they have entered into a long-term licensing partnership with Paizo Inc. to produce electronic games based on its popular Pathfinder Roleplaying Game intellectual property

Obsidian's first licensed product will be a tablet game based on the highly successful Pathfinder Adventure Card game, a cooperative game for 1 to 4 players. Players each have a unique character composed of a deck of cards and a set of stats. Characters have classes such as fighter, rogue, wizard and cleric, as well as numbers that define attributes such as strength, wisdom and charisma etc. Players will be able to customize their deck to better suit each individual’s vision of their character.

"At Obsidian we have a long history of working with the greatest RPG franchises, and we're thrilled to get to play in the Pathfinder universe now," said CEO Feargus Urquhart. "We're huge fans and can't wait to bring what we do in the electronic gaming world to Pathfinder fans everywhere".

In the world of Pathfinder, players take on the role of brave adventurers fighting to survive in a world beset by magic and evil. The Pathfinder RPG is currently translated into multiple languages, with hundreds of thousands of players worldwide. The Pathfinder brand has also been licensed for comic book series, graphic novels, miniatures, plush toys, apparel, and is being developed into a massively multiplayer online roleplaying game.

"Obsidian is a video game developer at the top of its game", said Paizo CEO Lisa Stevens. "Being able to bring that type of experience and passion to Pathfinder can only mean great things, both for our loyal Pathfinder community and for all fans of great CRPG's."

Obsidian will be at Gen Con 2014 showing off an early prototype of the digital Pathfinder Adventure Card Game in the Paizo booth (#203) and in their own booth (#2151) featuring the first consumer hands on for Pillars of Eternity.

that art style is atrocious. Looks like Weaboo shit. But I think Obsidian WILL make some real pathfinder CRPG eventually and I would predict that to be very good; basically getting AD&D 3.5 modules in an upgraded infinity engine. So I think this partnership is long term incline, maybe even major incline.

Could be fun. But I can't play it because it's on tablets :(

The Pathfinder Adventure Card Game is decent, so it'll be worth some hours. I wonder if it's supposed to be played multiplayer like the board game?

holla_cabezas_de_mierda: all Pathfinder art is ATROCIOUS. Fortunately, the art matters little for a project such as this. However if they decide to do a full-fledged RPG in Golarion with the basic Pathfinder art... urgh. Worth it for a Pathfinder cRPG though.

Apparently the card game is good, and given that we don't get many non-TCG on PC it'd be welcome.

I have faced the Dungeon Siege III and ascended the tower to fight the World of Tanks. I'm not afraid anymore.

I enjoy the card game, it is a fun coop game with characters who progress as you take on new more challenging scenarios (the game is pretty easy though, I just mean you don't keep doing the same scenarios even as your characters get more powerful) and can be played solo. The adventure path the current card game set is based around, Rise of the Runelords, was shitty imho and the association brings the game down a notch whenever I play it. If I had a tablet I would consider this good news, and honestly at this point it is probably better for us rpg fans than getting a Pathfinder Golarion (their campaign setting) version of nwn2 or something along those lines.

I'm digging it, even more if it's coming to PC too. There aren't many LCG/non-TCG on here.
