Community for CRPG and other RPG discussions. Focus is on CRPGs, but discussion around JPRGs, ARPGs and hybrid games with RPG components is also welcome.

Tabletop/pen & paper RPG discussion is not a good fit for this community. Check out !rpg@ttrpg.network for TT/P&P RPG discussions.

Memes are not banned, but the overwhelming focus is on discussions, releases and articles. Try and post memes (on an occasional basis) that would make people who don't like memes admit "OK! That was a good one!".

I haven't finished many games but I just did it with Pathfinder: Wrath of the Righteous. 🎉 I went along the Angel Path and ascended to Heaven.

Now I ponder what to do next. Maybe another run–the Demon Path sounds like fun too? Pathfinder: Kingmaker also looks interesting with a more grounded story?

I'm playing on Amazon Luna and unfortunately Baldur's Gate 3 is not available there.

What's Pathfinder like in terms of the experience? I've heard of Pathfinder, but never tried them myself.

Are you looking specifically at Pathfinder games or cRPGs in general?

Pathfinder the TTRPG is a D&D derivative with a little bit more complexity. I don't like the system itself but as a CRPG it is ok.

Pathfinder WotR is a game in the tradition of Baldur's Gate (I played 1 and 2): Epic story of good vs evil. You can be good or evil or lawful or chaotic. Plenty of potential party members. Lots of tactical battles. As a side-game WotR also includes a "crusade mode" which is strategy like "Heroes of Might & Magic".

I'm not there for the tactical depth, so I just play on lower difficulty where I don't need to manage things that carefully and usually succeed in every fight. I like exploring the world, the story, and have some meaningful interaction with it.

WotR

This sounds like my kind of thing.

I have heard about build diversity, and your choices mattering in Pathfinder which is always a huge plus for me.
