Gold Dragon is a late-game path, you won't be seeing that one for another 50-100+ hours if it took you 70 to finish Chapter 2.

Romances are always bad and they just bring weird people into the fan base. You put one romance into your game and your community is suddenly just a place for people to post fan art

There's this weird expectation now that every goddamn "RPG" must also have romances, even if it is completely irrelevant to the story.

I'm at the end of Act 3 waiting for the Queen to arrive but I got to find a way to spend 30 days (turned off crusade mode) and all I have to do quest wise is Blackwater. It is tempting to try it again but I am afraid of having to buy some ointment because of how ass blasted I will get.
You can fuck off from Drezen and explore all you want after the Queen comes.

Can I do Wintersun at level 10 ?

It's possible but there's a few hard encounters if you try to clear the map.

I can't see the boss fight in Wintersun ending without a few deaths either but your milage may very based on party composition. I dont use crowd control

I leave it until last personally, just before Ivory Labyrinth.

Why did they used the same world for second game?

As I understand it, Golarion, the world depicted, is the setting for the tabletop Pathfinder adventures published by Paizo, so Owlcat are using that. Several tabletop campaigns have been published by Paizo in that setting, and Owlcat have taken advantage of that to make their games (Kingmaker is moer or less a whole campaign as is, and I believe part of this game is based on one of the others).

For those of us that invested financially on the more heavy side, we can finally see our gear. (too bad we can't match the colours for Regill as we please... but that's okay)

Blame Bioware. Fuckers started that trend. And jRPGs before that. As always, the weebs were ahead of the curve.

It probably seemed like a good idea at the time - and indeed in the first few iterations it was alright (I think up to about DAO). But it's definitely become a tiresome automatism now.

Christ Drezen goes on ... and on ... and on ... and on. Quite good fun though, especially the little things like stumbling into a pub and finding a nice belt on a tough unique demon. And finding that bitter creepypasta letter to the queen left by some poor sod who died for the cause.

I think they handled the "big battle" thing quite well technically so far as this format can do it, but I must admit it's not my favourite aspect of these games. My favourite thing with these types of games is apprehensively crawling through some weird, gloomy, mysterious "dungeon" with unknown terrors - either that or wandering through forests. Most of the other settings and scenarios for these types of games I can take or leave.

Yes, the Pathfinder: Kingmaker CRPG is based on the Kingmaker adventure path of the Pathfinder TTRPG while the Pathfinder: Wrath of the Righteous CRPG is based on the Wrath of the Righteous adventure path of the Pathfinder TTRPG. It's all terribly mysterious about which computer game goes with which licensed tabletop product, but somehow we manage.

In some games like G3, I just can't play evil since you need to kill a certain group of NPC's which I like so much. In this game, is so easy to be evil since the game threats being anti egalitarian as being evil and most companions are not interesting. The best NPCs like Zacharius are also evil. And I see people saying that the evil path is lackluster. Sure, is a "cartoon caricature" in some points. But still miles better than BG3 evil path.

I just died from level drain as a Dhampir. Fucking spaghetti code. As I just reported this, wait as this bug will be fixed 3 years from now. But the fun AoO bug was fixed in less than 24h.
