Just realized something cool. Wrath of the Righteous should start at some time during the War of River Kings:

According to the creators of Pathfinder, the release of every official Adventure Path should roughly follow the same timetable in the real world as in Golarion itself.

Rise of the Runelords, the first AP, was released in parts between August 2007 and January 2008. It corresponds to 707 Golarion Time.

Kingmaker was likewise released in parts between February 2010 and July 2010. So, roughly it should be 709 and afterwards. If you apply that to Righteous, you 712+.

However, the in-game Kingmaker starts one year late. At the first semester of 710. Three and a half years later places Wrath of the Righteous at 713. Assuming you don't spend three months grinding XPs in the Stag Lord Chapter, plus the timetable set by the Curse at the Bald Hilltop, our crusading PC's story begins at some point after Irovetti starts his campaign of sabotage and propaganda against the Kingdom, but before the Pitax revolution.

Does something in the Alpha contradict this? Maybe early Crusading mechanics?

Amiri DOES look kind of cool from some angles...

Also, the angel's battle cry on the first slide is a direct translation of (allegedly) the battle cry of Russians soldiers during the Second World War. And "Iomedae" takes place of "Stalin" in the original, which is telling.

It is a battle cry far older than stalin lol. People had fought for king and country since they first formed tribes.

This is so awesome when the people of Owlcat Games speak Russian and not that lingua franca for pigs.

They need to at least translate.

Eastern European devs are the best ones and it is not only on RPG's, compare escape from tarkov and metro with children's online daycare for eg. The best mods for Gothic and STALKER are also Russian. And while small western studios produces abominations like sword coast legends, Russian studios produces masterpieces like pathfinder kingmaker and wrath of the righteous.

I see people have yet to confront the elephant in the room.

azata aka galactic squirrel girl is the best spellcaster in the game

rip lich bros
Spellcasting? Fuck the spellcasting, the main deal of a Lich is to tear shit up as a goddamn skeleton.
IIRC only Lich and Angel get 10th level spells.

yeah but Azatas are certified fags, no amount of power is worth being a fag for. what's next? play as an elf? not have a Dwarf in your party? once one goes down the path of faggotery there is not stopping.

Finished Chapter 1, stopping there, a couple spoiler-free notes..

-Game is still in alpha, so many things are missing, (feats, classes, features etc.) so I expect a lot to be added and changes but the groundwork is there. Though the design philosophy is completely different than Kingmaker, so if you didn't like Kingmaker's design you will be glad they seem to have changed it for the most part and you will probably enjoy it more.
?, what different design philosophy you are talking about?

Any word on whether this time there will be actual towns/villages/cities instead of a single "capital" the size of Gullykin? Say what you want about Pillars of Eternity - at least they had proper settlements, and Nehekata is still the single best realised city in any RPG.

As much as it pains to say anything good about dumpster fire, neketeka wasn't bad, its a shame it was stuck in such a shitty game with such shitty writers.

True. Once you've tasted one forbidden fruit, why stop there?

Elves and Azata are going too far, though.

But I am playing Kitsune Azata in the full game tho :smug:

You should play Kitisune Azata Arcanist only to piss off people here.
Kitsune Azata Arcanist Succubus Dragon Lich or Human Warpriest - easiest choice in my life.

Azata Druid here. I hate playing a class already taken by a party member.
