I have to ask you all a favour guys.
I am done for the time being with KotC2 - i hope to return soon for a second run, with different builds and possibly play on Archmage or Ironman. But for now i'm done.
I'm thinking what to play next, mosty something tactical, CRPG or CRPG-ish. The option I came with:
1) Battle Brothers Legends (Darh, is it known when they will include the big perk mod (PTR?) into Legends?)
2) King's Arthur Knight's Tale
3) That Warhammer 40k Demon-something-something game
4) Solasta
5) Gloomhaven
6) Return to Kingmaker or try (more) WotR. Damn, I love the idea of mounted combat but hate the writing and a few other things so much.
7) Finish Underrail
8) Something else
Which one would you recommend?
Great list.
Basically a "must play" for those who like more tactical RPGs.
Most of the listed games share the same downside, though - very small field team of 4 characters.
After KotC2 it could feel especially limited.
Solasta is a barebones game. The best thing about it is "faithful 5E adaptation".
Gloomhaven is a boardgame. I heard it's good, but personally I don't like deck-of-cards mechanic in my tacticools.
One good game that is missing from the list is Dungeon of Naheulbeuk.
From pure tactical challenge it beats everything on the list, in my opinion.
So I'd recommend it... if you can stand the art style.
Oh, there's, of course, Troubleshooter.
It's contraindicated to the people with low weeab-tolerance levels, and it's very slow to start, but it snowballs into a great tactical game
with character building so complex that nothing bar Pathfinders could even come close.
