Pathfinder Pathfinder: Wrath of the Righteous Pre-DLC Thread [GO TO NEW THREAD]

[pomenitul]

Game's pretty decent so far – a slight step up from Kingmaker, it seems to me. Identity politics aside, Owlcast's writing is as aggressively cliché-ridden and inconsistent as ever (awkwardly infantile ESL that tries its damndest, for the most part), but that was to be expected given their track record, and doubly so in light of the setting. Nearly everything else, from build selection to combat to difficulty to C&C to, yes, graphics, is quite good. A cute little romp through the Abyss.

I fucking hate these cutscenes that start ignoring the sneaking and brake fucking pacing and force you to watch them over and over as you retry holy shit I can't believe whoever was in charge of that bullshit

 

[Non-Edgy Gamer]

But yes, people in times of despair do stupid shit. including using a crossbow vs a demon lord. Note that you are not entering in the underdark on lv 4 like you do in bg3.

Attacking BG3 for letting you into the underdark at a low level right after excusing WotR for letting the player fight a lord of hell with a crossbow (that btw actually hurts it) at level one.

Amazing.

Use enter to skip, but yeah.

However, they say Wenduag is almost Ekundayo level strong

Wend in my game struggles to kill stronger demon because i didn't got a Cold Throwing axe but everything else gets kill easily. Especialy now that i got Deadly aim and Sneak attack from Slayer class.

How many classes of Slayer did you take and when? I want to give her sneak attack too but not sure at which point.

Press enter?

They break sneaking and force ambushes on you, it's just cheap design akin to ANOTHER WAVE from Dragon Age 2

Okay, so whenever my armies are on top of each other on the map I click the I (for inventory) button where you can assign a general. If I click the split it brings up an army that I don’t have which is crusader army IV? Even though I only have crusader army 1/2/3 there all on top of each other so I don’t know what I’m doing wrong. Am I fucked here or can I get around it somehow? I can’t join my armies together.

Saving and quitting does nothing.

Out of at least hundred NPCs in the tutorial and including the tavern, there's 1 explicitly lesbian couple. Anevia and Irabeth. And they are from the original module.

Who are all nobodies.

I get it, people are overreacting a bit. But then people like you undersell it which makes it worse.

Let's look at this from a clinical standpoint.

MAJOR CHARACTERS (not some dumbfuck bartender with no portrait) that are explicitly LGBT

Anevia and Irabeth as mentioned.

The cleric (gay)

Wenduag, Succubus, Queen, Tiefling thief, Daerun (bi)

Storyteller (gay....I think?)

That's quite a bit considering that the lgbt community is less than 5% of the general pop.

Oh, and before you get self-righteous, I'm bi-sexual....SO DON'T.

 

[Gargaune]

"Hey, guys, so how is Wrath of the..."

cheap design akin to ANOTHER WAVE from Dragon Age 2

 

[Lacrymas]

Anevia and Irabeth as mentioned.

The cleric (gay)

Wenduag, Succubus, Queen, Tiefling thief, Daerun (bi)

Storyteller (gay....I think?)

And that's actually all of them and I'm not so sure about the storyteller and Woljif (is he anything at all?). Let's list some who aren't - Lann, Camellia, Regill, Halrun, Staunton Vhane, Ember, Seelah, Greybor, Nenio. And everyone else who is named. 7 confirmed cases against everyone else in the entire game.

 

[Heroic Liberator]

And lets be fair, bisexual is just playersexual when it comes to NPCs that are romance options.

are there many fear resistant enemies? Just in case I decide to buy it and redo my dazzling display thug thing

 

[Lacrymas]

Yes, and the only unavoidable gay content in the game is Irabeth and Anevia (I think?). Wow. That puts it in line with Phantasmagoria 2, a game from 1996.

I've always hated the concept of playersexual characters.

I want characters to have their own agency.

Anevia and Irabeth as mentioned.

Wenduag, Succubus, Queen, Tiefling thief, Daerun (bi)

Once again, forgetting that "everybody else" is not an argument when "everybody else" is almost always a nobody.

47 rounds defending

Spoiler

the tavern in ch.1 LOL. One hour and a half in real time. I though the game bugged because it keeps spamming enemies and fuking alchemists. At round 35 more or less i lost Brooklyn paladin (my second time death gateing a character) and the tiefling. Ember going between godlike and useless from round to round for her to end killing the last big demon with an earscreen spell at round 44-45. But then another two rounds happends O_O I almost pooped myself thinking it was still going and i would have to repeat it the encounter.

Thank to God it ending right there with only 1 of 12 of those defense points down.

Now the question, is there a way to use companions spells in the tavern? I need to lesser resotarion a few people.

 

[Saravan]

By the way you cucklovers, this is a deceiving UI bug. You don't actually get the life-bonding friendships, you would have to waste a superpower for it. Not like it really matters as the game's true difficulty lies on how much tedium you are willing to tolerate.

 

[Lacrymas]

Congrats, that's 7 MAJOR (and not dumbfuck nobodies, or next to nobodies) vs 6 (Woljif calls you a dreamboat when you meat him if you're a guy). That's nearly 50%. NOT 5%.

Which goes into my point that people like you are underselling it on purpose.

But that's because these characters are made for the player to romance. You'll never know Wenduag, Queen, Succubus, and Daerun are bi unless you romance them with a same-sex PC (I think?). I also think you have to romance Sosiel to know he's gay. This is the same with Dragon Age 2 where everyone was "bi" too, but you'll never know this unless you actively go for that content. You have to "opt in" in order to get gay stuff. And again, these are a handful of characters against everyone else in the game. You are complaining they are "major" characters, but that's just bias. You can easily have same-sex couples outside of major named characters with just a sentence of dialogue and nothing else.

LoL just got proposed by a gentle negro.....lol this game is so fucking tumbler cringe that i am enjoying it lol. I just end up waking people in then next room because i laughed out loud lol. I rate it 12/10 hanging redditors!

[FriendlyMerchant]

Very interesting

[fantadomat]

Couldn't find a paladin portrait I wanted to use for smiting heretics, so I created one of my own:

Waste of effort,there is no crusade or smiting evil in this game,more about embracing it.

Yeah, I'm pretty sure not everyone gets that conversation with the gay guy. You have to trigger it somehow.

Wend in my game struggles to kill stronger demon because i didn't got a Cold Throwing axe but everything else gets kill easily. Especialy now that i got Deadly aim and Sneak attack from Slayer class.

How many classes of Slayer did you take and when? I want to give her sneak attack too but not sure at which point.

Right when i got to level 2 tbh.
Fighter is a good class for her but i thought Spawn slayer would be perfect for her. Idk if going to pick full slayer now tho. Maybe dip in something else later.
