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

[Desiderius]

Can anyone explain to me how the Call for Reserves decree works? In the description it writes that an army of 327 strength will appear, when I actually execute the decree, that number lowered to 16. Is this a bug or is there some weird Owlcat logic behind it?

It scales by number of troops lost. Let's you come back from getting wiped.

Thanks, I knew it was some kind of Owlcat logic. Is this indicated somewhere in the game and I'm once again a dumbfuck for not having paid attention? I never would have figured this shit out by myself.
Also, it seems a bit weird to essentially penalize me for not having lost a lot of troops. I put the same amount into reserves so I guess these are essentially wasted unless I suddenly incur a huge amount of losses.

It was recently added to give tards an out from completely screwing themselves. Probably should have been there the whole time. It's not exactly intuitive that losing significant troops in a battle can snowball into sucking the whole game (or not making it there at all).

It also allows you to delete all of the shitty random troops you get that won't stack and concentrate your numbers into what you actually use.

I think it works on literally any troop type meaning you could get a bunch of dragons out of it if dragons are all you use or w/e. Not saying that the conversion rate is going to be good though.

I want my PTSD'd blackguard companion, fam.

You take your Don Lemon priest and you like it.

The crusade has fallen. Millions must do penance.

That said, I liked Daeran more than Sosiel. Sosiel is pretty cringe and the romance trigger is pretty bad. Apparently all you have to do to get him to try courting you is to be nice and compliment his art. That's it. After that he starts doing lame shit like passing you messages and crap.

Daeran is honestly kinda based

The evil of both Daeran and Regill (especially Regill) is a gratuitous add-on that doesn't fit with the essence of either character. Meanwhile Cam and Wend are caricatures of female evil straight from the old manosphere archives.

P:K did a better job handling evil than Wrath does. Not great at good either. The Poz is at heart nonjudgmental so struggles with moral categorization.

That said both Daeran and Regill are great characters with based and incisive takes on the particular societal failings with which we've become all too familiar in a way that Soyer can't quite muster due to his own blinders.

As for Sosiel, he does somehow manage to, uh, bring the woman back out in Anevia...



Seelah smacking down bleeding heart Ember is another odd one:



Regill's character distilled:



Don't get the Nenio hate. This one is stone cold:



Speaking of Stone Cold (salesman character race specific scrolls are clever):



Don't do romance arcs, but maybe for Arsinoe I could make an exception:



Regill gets the final, and best, word (are the Soyerite relativists listening?):
