Pathfinder Pathfinder: Wrath of the Righteous Pre-Release Thread [GAME RELEASED, GO TO NEW THREAD]

[Ontopoly]

Some 5k backer just pulled out.

Infinitron does this mean the fundraiser can aim for a backer-designed quest now?

Never mind, it wasn't the 5k backers that backed out. It is unavailable now, the 5k tier. Some one fucking backed out. We were at 128 but are now 123.

Kickstarter has been shitting the bed. I think we just have to give it time. In the meantime: Druids and monks. What if one of the druid shape shifts just turned you into a monk?

Yes,but adding a TB is going to mess shit up,it is a new different system for which the game was not build

Wait... how do you play D&D again?

I don't,now fuck off old man,we are talking about computer games here. Go play with your cardboard castle or something.

We will be in for a ride on to release,

I imagine we'll have significantly less problems with bugs at launch since the game is on the same engine and they can piggyback on a lot of things they already worked before

Yes,but adding a TB is going to mess shit up,it is a new different system for which the game was not build,it will also need its own balance and shit. In deadfire the TB system totally broke the fucking balance of the game.

In Deadfire the game wasn't based on a TB system like Pathfinder was, didn't have a proven (good) TB mode like the Kingmaker mod, and it's not going to affect the RTWP mode.

How come Kingmaker was made for TB system? From what i know it was made from another d&d like game. Which are not TB games because they are not computer games lol.

key difference here is that you were locked-in the choice in Deadfire (for some god-forsaken reason), so you had to endure it for trash/less interesting encounters. Here it's another gameplay choice available to the player on the fly

And why it should be different here? It is not like the game is out and we know how it is implemented.

have to admit I didnt expect so much anger and resentment between the two nations of TB and RTwP that could rise up after a simple optional gameplay mode that can be toggled at will

The fuck are you talking about?! We are having a civilized discussion and you try to play the victim here!

Didn't they say something about bears learning kung fu? Would that also apply to druids?

Speaking of good stretch goals, one thing I always hoped for was actual class roleplay. Instead of picking animal companion from the list, you save/befriend a few and pick one to join the party. Searching for Holy Avenger as a Paladin. That sort of thing.

The proper Holy Avenger makes me miss AD&D. It's the thing I always regret not having when I look at 3E and its spin offs. Well that and the proper randomness of the deck of many things. They sort of exemplify how much the game changed over the years to me.

Acting like throwing enough money can magically let them expand the team at will without watering it down. It's a gold rush and they need to calm the fuck down.

Imho, all campaign is built around "keeping hype train going". Seems that idea was to keep some "major" news, like TB announcement (suspiciously coincided with 1kk mark), for later, when first big wave of pledges will start to die down. So I do not think they shower people with promises without properly considering time/effort costs.

Beside, 1.5 year until release + at least 0.5 year already in development seems decent enough time to make a game with working engine and dev team's instruments. Question is, whether it is enough time to test it properly.

its not being released until 2022 or 2023?

 

[Grampy_Bone]

Yeah, Idk, totally crazy idea here, but maybe a unique stronghold for each class?

 

[Yosharian]

What with this Kickstarter going so well and me getting laid last night, life's looking up

 

[Ontopoly]

Yeah, Idk, totally crazy idea here, but maybe a unique stronghold for each class?

The only strong hold I want is whatever Castle Queen Galfrey is in.

But honestly I feel like 20 something strongholds would be too much for them, we're no longer dealing with these games that would give us like 8 classes. It would be nice if we could choose between some though. Or maybe base it off mythic class or alignment. I just feel like it would have to be based off something other than class or some classes would have to get lumped into groups.

 

[Sarkile]

I would be willing to throw away an extra $130 for opening vignettes or origins like TOEE or DA:O. That is if they wanted interesting hooks that could tie into their reactivity and some replayability.

 

[Pink Eye]

I wish they can show the other Mythic Paths. I am very interested in Aeon. It sounds like a lot of fun.

 

[Zayne]

For each class - no way. For each mythic path - maybe.

 

[FranticDistortion]

People still comparing this to Arcanum? That shit came out 20 years ago and had a total budget of three Oreos, using it as an argument to why games shouldn't have multiple gameplay mechanics today is retarded.

 

[Pink Eye]

>and had budget of three Oreos
This made me laugh. Wrath of the Righteous will have the budget of 5 oreos

What's the point man, you are just getting shitty buttons for telling the Truth here

The only shitty button ever is a ban. Which Owlcat uses, but Codex does not.

Tell this to @fluent. Oh, sorry, you CAN'T!

Never mind. The reason was because of kickstarter:

>Resolved - This issue has been resolved. We corrected an issue where some pledges were getting counted twice inside creator dashboards, this has been corrected.

 

[Elex]

Finally my jar of rtwp tears is full.
I order more jars on amazon so i am prepared for BG3 announcement.

WTF happened to Fluent? It was generally pretty innocuous in its Kenshi shilling.

You can dig up the discussions in the general forums, let's not derail this thread.

But yes! to the tb mode. :D Wouldn't suprise me if they are aiming for Larian's fanbase here, but that depends on what Larian has cooked up for BG3.

 

[Lacrymas]

Owlcat know TB fans will be disappointed by BG3, so they'll be ready with an offering of their own when the inevitable despair comes.

 

[Thonius]

Owlcats needs to add Male kitsune and make him gay only to troll degenerate fanbase.
God dàmn fox is winning on unofficial vote.

Nigga, that's exactly what furries want. How is this trolling?

 

[Lacrymas]

No! That is exactly what they want!

 

[vortex]

Inb4, BG3 will have both game modes as well.

Yeah, sorry. I try to ignore GD garbage.
The only way I see them cracking Larian's niche is to offer co-op play.
