I wanted to play this game for a while now, but it's probably gonna take me like two months to get through, and finding that kind of time is tough, with the gazillions of other games, that I also want to check out.
Now, I'll definitely wait for this patch and maybe a few bug fixes (since it's Owlcat), to finally get to this one (hopefully next year).
- It's one of the best RPGs in the last decade, easy. Unless you already know how pathfinder works, it's going to take longer than two months to beat it. There's an insane amount of gameplay.
  
  Ahh... i remember kingmaker. 200 hours is what a single playthrough took. Wrath of the rightuous improved greatly upon the previous game.
- Yeah – it’s a beast. Even on easy mode I was clocking in at 120 hours on my first playthrough.
Did they ever make the azata better? Or is it still a kid's idea of freedom? Azatas are easily the coolest outsiders in Pathfinder, it's kinda sad that the unbelievably strong start went into mostly a big joke path.
- Make the path better in what way? I personally enjoyed the path and it matches nicely with Arueshalae's story arc. Creating a tree that slowly destroys the abyss is also no joke, even if you got a childish dragon companion tagging along.
  It can never beat the Aeon path though.
  
  Don't know. It just feels like the path is overwhelmingly focused on a stupid joke on the part of the court. When i first played through it i was expecting less 'childlike' and more 'wonder' and it's just disappointing the way it is, especially for someone who liked azatas before they went into the game.
Their first pathfinder game was so excruciatingly guide dang it I never finished it, and never even considered this game. I kind of assumed it was the same way, where there's stuff like "Ah, you didn't return to this unmarked forest on day 7, so now you never get a wizard"
Oh, now I remember having an argument on here with some asshole who insisted I just have "fomo" over this. Sign posting and foreshadowing are only to appease fomo, I guess.
