Codex Review RPG Codex Review: Pathfinder Wrath of the Righteous

[HeyCheckOutHowHardICanPee]

camera rotation is often invaluable during turn-based, tactical combat.

Is it invaluable because it lets you approach things from a better angle of view to your liking or is it actually invaluable because nearly every game that features it has used it as a lazy "fix" of the developers and designers having zero care in the world about visibility and coherency?

Because I'm having a very hard time remembering an instance of wiggling my camera around and enjoying it outside of puzzles that revolved around the act or games where you can influence or interact with the enviroment to the point where the developers understood that the carnage the players would cause would require being able to swivel the damn thing around lest you indirectly blind your ability to see the battlefield.

Did this review just unironically refer to a rotatable camera as a...... downgrade? Did that actually happen?

I've yet to see any bird's-eye-view game where camera rotation added anything other than busywork that gets in the way of fun. Static view is best, designed-for-one-particular-view-but-with-the-option-to-rotate like Wasteland 3 is also acceptable.

Silent storm mb, does it count?

I didn't read the review but I take the opposite stance of whatever it said unless someone challenges me on it and then I will gaslight them, okay?

A lots of evil dialogue options are stupid, main character talks like an edgy 90s comic book character and yells to kill everyone.

Pathfinder Wrath Of The Righteous is a really really really good game.
