Pathfinder Pathfinder: Wrath of the Righteous - Owlcat's next Pathfinder RPG - now in ALPHA

PorkyThePaladin They're just fishing for bait they can use to declare you Suck At The Game.

Most of them only won on Story Mode anyway.

 

They can't though, I can literally post screenshots from Steam Achievement page showing I was one of 3 people to finish Shitmaker on Challenging or above.

P.S. The other 2 being part of this thread as well, obviously.

 

Looks like good resource management to me!

 

Seriously, I would be pissed if I were that dude. I would want a look at their code.

 

Did you beat it on the most difficult setting and constantly bragging about it? CHECK!!!

 

Nah, they will be bros. No thief directly links to the source of robbery.

 

I have to disagree. Monk in BG2 was pretty OP, especially because at release you could easily achieve 100% magic resistance with items! (then they capped it at 78% I think in a patch).

 

Sir, you know things, and I like you because you know things. Take my brofist.

 

BG2 monk was a long grind of suck followed by glorious punchbot of doom at high levels. But at that point it hardly mattered.

Besides, BG had the suckage of magic resistance cancelling friendly heals and buffs. You still weren't as good as literally any fighter holding Crom Faeyr

 

Crom Faeyr was, and is, always a bit of a meme since APR was always king.

This said, I agree that monk at start sucked a bit, but by late game they rocked. And magic lowering happened mostly in TOB. In BG2 having 100% magic resistance was so OP they had to nerf it.

Also monks were one of the few classes able to wear the Amulet of power (immune to drain level). The EE made it usuable by everyone because decline (fighters were not able to wear it).

 

It's funny to see all the butthurt about the TB announcement. I've been seriously considering increasing my pledge by a few hundred dollars over it.

 

2 combat systems married to 1 game make game a dumb whore.

 

You can. That's why there are so many mods without "mod support".

 

Turn based makes their existing GiantCentipedeSpam.exe encounter design unbearable. You have to be able to toggle.

If they take out all the mob spam, what else are they going to put in the game? Communism?

 

Hey, I like my Octavia!

 

Crom Faeyr is a great early weapon but later on once you get other strength-boosting items like belts and gloves, other weapons quickly begin to outshine it.

 

I don't know. I thought giving people their favorite gameplay system will mean less TB spamming in the kickstarter comments. Which means, I can now use the space to spam about monks.

 

I finished PK + dlc on Unfair with TB mod. I am a know fanboi of Arcanum and also played Deadfire with TB.

Not only is encounter design bad, but action economy is screwed, game becomes too easy + too long, enemy AI is terrible and combat lacks any interesting options to actually validate sequential actions (no counter spelling, no prepared actions, no cover, no elevation, positioning, no anything).

The only thing what TB is good for is to help pnp masters who DMd for 20 years who have problems with landing their fireball in RTwP and so "wizards suck".
Most of tactics involved to win anything was 1 spell to make enemies walk slowly to you and then have all party kill them 1 by 1; or use 1 high initiative caster to win any combat in 1-2 rounds, with all enemies ded/disabled instantly.

It's fun for novelty but if you want actual fun TB game might as well give Vince some cash for his colony shep game.

 

This is just a criticism of Kingmaker, isn't it? It isn't really unique to TB vs RTwP.

 

Have you tried the TB mod for Kingmaker?

 

Here's the thing though. This system is already designed to be TB, it's RTwP that requires blood and sweat to make work, while TB is ready out of the box. This is not like PoE2 where everything barely functioned in RTwP, even though it was designed to be such, and then a glued TB on top. The biggest problem of PF:KM TB mod, from what I've read, is the amount of trash mobs that RTwP tends to coalesce around itself for some unbeknownst to me reason. But trash is usually associated with a dumpster.

 

Damn. The turn based announcement brought in a bunch of casuals to this thread. Can we go back to when it was just the same 8 people talking.

 

This is true, the AI can't turn based at all. But it doesn't use any better tactics in real time mode.
