Pathfinder Pathfinder: Wrath of the Righteous - Game of the Year Edition

[The Jester]

It's so over goldfag bros

 

[Tenebris]

I wouldn't be too disappointed. The fact that any content will at most be 10-15 minutes dozens of hours into the game makes it still not really worth it.

 

[Desiderius]

There’s a ton of Ulbrig content.

 

[Tenebris]

I'm referring only to Devil and any possible Gold Dragon content.

Facts.

Given the amount added with Ulbrig it’s unlikely Devil will be that thin. One thing about Owlcat they do love to overdo it.

I haven't played since release - how have the other 5 DLCs been?

Afaik, mostly bloat. I think the new lower level campaign has been well received, but don't quote me on that.

 

[IHaveHugeNick]

Ye I liked the low level one, didn't try the sequel yet though.

 

[Barbarian]

I didn't go too far both times I tried playing this game.

"bloat" is the exact world I would use. I remember I had so many abilities, spells and features even managing the hotbar was tedious. And I was a pure classed character mind you.

The setting and being shoehorned on the mythic paths was another bummer. I couldn't sympathize with none of the factions, and it was very annoying being forced into having a half orc lesbo and a troon as your right hand.

I guess despite the system improvements in this, Kingmaker was the better game period. That one I could stomach to finish.

Oh the android companion and the guys from the other dlcs going to make a cameo in the DLC ? neat

edit: Also this video really gives a ''last goodbye for the pathfinder franchise'' vibe.

If we're lucky, Owlcat will go under too.

When we were working on the final DLC in Season Pass 2, we focused on the fact that A Dance of Masks is a DLC about the commander's well-deserved break from endless battles and a long-awaited holiday with his favorite companions. In this supplement, players should be able to enjoy all the favorite aspects of communication with the team: Daeran's humorous remarks, Nenio's boundless inquisitiveness, and, of course, Regill's strictness, which hides an endless respect for the commander. And how can you convey all the joy of communicating with companions without their beautiful voices and unique intonations? That's why in A Dance of Masks DLC we've made a full dialog voiceover for the first time. We hope that it will add depth to the story and you will be able to plunge into the atmosphere of the festival in the rebuilt Kenabres.

How on Earth would full VO "add depth to the story"? If anything it will most likely significantly reduce the amount of dialogue options. Decline.

People play Owlcats games for the dialogue options?

I quite liked Lich's dialogue options

Oh I'm not saying there's never anything good in them, and either way, the PC isn't going to be voiced, just the NPCs. I'm just saying that these aren't really storyfaggy games, all in all.

 

[Dishonoredbr]

Even only having NPCs being all voiced nowdays became a requirement at this point. The two biggest CPRGs recently were voiced, DOS2 and BG3 and with rogue trader in particular, i saw a bigger demand for voice acting than both pathfinder games. I hope i'm wrong, maybe people going to push against the idea hard enough..

Ulbrig one adds a lot. The others have been forgettable. Main squad busy on Wrath Trader at the time.

I hate full VO so much, it's nothing but a waste of time. Messes with my reading pace, because I can read much faster than how a voice actor talks. So I have to set the voice acting volume to zero or it completely ruins my experience. It's so hard to focus on the text when you're already 5 sentences in and the actor is still speaking the first.

 

[Tenebris]

Larian spoiled people. Having some VO in character introductions and important story moments was perfect. Anything else is waste of time and money.

 

[jf8350143]

I don't really like Larian but blaming them for the full VO trend is wild. They are just doing what big budget games always do, wasting money on VO and graphics etc, just like Bioware and CDPR before them.

PoE 2 already had fully VO(because people are demanding it) and back then BG3 wasn't even announced yet.

 

[InD_ImaginE]

So they give content to Devil

Does Gold Dragon have content now? All the 3 of Devil, GD, and Swarm was kinda meh but Swars not having much content is I guess logical as you are going to omnicidial maniac route

POE 2 had full VO because DOS2 had it and Feargus was afraid it would make POE 2 look bad if they didn't have it, and he had to force Sawyer to include it.

The expectation for a long time is that isometric CRPGs are AA games without the potential to become AAA. Larian smashed that illusion and made it clear there's no reason why you can't make a CRPG with the budget of Assassin's Creed or God of War.
