    I hope they at least won't remove option to upload your portraits.
    Because :prosper: is actually a dealbreaker to me.

    Portrait mods are one of the earliest mods released - as a company, I wouldn't allocate too many resourced on portraits. Three seem fine.

    I was referring to the character model presets. If they are indeed using 3d portraits, then the model presets will be more relevant.

    Yes, 2D portraits are muuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuch better, but choosing a bubbly face for your gnome bard that you later decide to make a lich would kinda ruin the vibe, you know? And even then, there are some races which don't have enough portraits (*cough* tieflings *cough*) and they look nothing like most of the faces you can choose for your 3D model. So, yeah, upsides and downsides.

    Then just add an option to change portrait when you do transformation.
    There is no fucking upsides in 3d portraits in isometric games.

    While I'm happy to see them getting money, I hope the stretch goals won't delay the game more than 6 months. On the other hand, I don't want them to rush development, because Kingmaker launch was a bit of a mess.

    They should just allow player to use separate custom portrait for each mythic path.

    They should just allow both (2d and 3d), and make it easy to change 2d portraits later in the game so you can pick something mythic appropriate at a later time.

    I asked in the discord and the people who know their stuff like Stratagemi who know their next game would be Wrath of the Righteous almost half a year before the announcement said they have never heard of the portraits being 3D. Besides we have already seen that Lann and the witch girl and a white-haired woman have 2D portraits.

    They also showed 2D portraits for Lich and Aeon.

    I put you on ignoring because you start a discussion without understanding a single thing that is being said to you. You first made a statement that you like rtwp more because positioning and the order in which you do things matters more, giving the example that in TB you just have to place your mages far back enough that nothing can reach them in one turn. I nicely and with good tone explain to you why this is a false statement by giving you a counterexample in turn-based to your example in real-time, also explaining why positioning in the real-time scenario you describe matters less due to how AoO works in real-time compared to turn-based (IN PATHFINDER).

    When you reply to my response you start with this idiocy:
    As a reply to:
    Okay!?!? You admit that you have not played pathfinder in turn-based, but every other tb-system is the same and can be applied to each other so it does not matter?!?! You then go on with stupid statements like:

    NO ONE made that statement which proves you didn't understand A SINGLE THING I tried to convey to you.

    For the third time: In REAL-TIME, If an enemy is disengaging the front to attack your mage and one of your front characters follow pursuit, you can simultaneously move the mage so that your front character gets an AoO every six seconds for as long as everybody is moving (infinitely). This can not happen in turn-based. It is a flaw in how pathfinder 3.5 translates to a real-time system. This is the argument against your scenario that positioning mattes more in real-time, and why I made the statement that you should try turn-based in pathfinder: kingmaker.

    This is just one example of why it's a necessity for turn-based to be in Pf:WotR. There are many other examples of how the pathfinder 3.5 system is flawed in real-time. It works, but in a lesser way.

    The rest of the edit is meh, but having horn on both side really really makes it better.

    It is kinda triggering symmetry wise with Owlcat's version because one side doesn't have horn. Make me kinda uncomfortable, like 2 bodies stitched right in the middle. But on the other hand, causing people discomforts is maybe the point to sell that he is a mutant.

    That's what mongrels are.

    Strictly speaking, he is a chimera. However, chimerism cannot be passed vertically IRL, but on Golarion it seems to be possible.

    Outside of making him whiter (I guess he isn't white enough for 4chan incels) and more muscular, both of his faces kinda trigger me. The original one looks like a history teacher I had in middle school who turned out to be a pedophile who drugged teenagers to have sex with them. His edited face looks like a specific British gay porn star (Paddy O'Brian if someone is interested). Sooooo, yeaaaaah, not sure how to feel about either of those.
