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

[Desiderius]

Speaking of Desna, are you supposed to find Tall the Wallflower before you finish the Garrison? Also one room in Garrison haven’t made it into yet.

Did the swarm path has any alignment restriction?

Or is it not in the alpha yet?

Seriously don't read if you don't want to spoil yourself.

Swarm is so fucking evil, that even a demon lord looks at you in disgust.

>Your voice rings like the wings of a myriad of insects. The world breaks into pieces, reflected in the countless facets of countless eyes. Your body trembles, ready to decay into many small bodies, but still retains its shape - for the time being. The goddess and demon lord are looking at you - so different, but now they look at you with the same thing: disgust with a touch of horror. {/ N} "

>Iomedae: "You took from the Abyss the gift of power - but surpassed your donors in wickedness! Listen to me, disgusting creature. You have started on the path that will bring Golarion to disaster, uncountable, like the larvae that swarm in your black heart. I would destroy you right now - but for the time being I will hold my hand so as not to make it worse. Know: when this crusade is over, a new one will follow. You will crush the hordes of demons-but you will not stand against the angels!"

>Sosiel: "You're like a living insult to Shelyn, embodied ugliness. Evil that even demons despise. I no longer want to have anything to do with you! \ ""

Huh I honestly was expecting that Swarm will be more "neutral" than Demon or Lich. The KS description seems to make it that the Swarm will be revenge(?) based from the "Golarion failed you". It seems that it might be the evilest instead.

Spoiler

The idea behind the Swarm-that-Walks finds its roots in the Age of Worms adventure path for D&D 3.5, an adventure that revolves around the Wormgod Kyuss, whose manifestation is a giant Worm That Walks. Pathfinder also has a template which follows the same concept. Kyuss and Worms that Walks are always described as particularly evil and vile, so the Swarm that Walks was obviously going to be evil.

 

[Cryomancer]

Only i found the "triskter" path very lackluster? IMO they should bring elemental templates on this "neutral" and "chaotic neutral" paths. like the cold creature, hellfire-creature, and maybe a vampire template. Since liches IMO fit more wizards and vampires, sorcerers.

 

[Desiderius]

I'm going Trickster then Commander (when it's implemented). Liking it so far.

Hmm, sounds like your companion will leave you if you choose swarm. Not really ideal for a first playthrough. Wonder if it requires to be chaotic, didn't really sounds like a lawful thing.

Guess I'll go with gold dragon or lich first then.

 

[InD_ImaginE]

I'm going Trickster then Commander

What is Commander? I don't think there is Commander mythic?

I will be CN Tiefling Demon Mythic for 1st playthrough

But that's not in this game, isn't it?

Embark on a journey to a realm overrun by demons and rise to power by choosing one of six available Mythic Paths. Master their abilities and change the world around you as an Angel, a Lich, a Trickster, an Aeon, a Demon, or an Azata. Each Mythic Path leads to unique skills and appearance, and greatly impacts the game’s story.

Then you have Gold Dragon and Swarm as stretch goals

Shit's getting wild in that thread on /vg/, if you don't want some late game spoilers I suggest not to look. There is a lot of things Owlcat forgot to cut from those alpha files, it seems.

I'm not going to spoil myself, but is it a positive or negative reaction?

They're saying it's so amazing. They're even heralding it as the next Pathfinder kingmaker

Positive. Just like with Kingmaker, they managed to salvage all the shit Paizo and Amber wrote and make it something much better.

It's the Alpha. All kind of shit isn't in-game yet. I'd have a hard time imagining it not being in, given the setting/set-up.

Bewilderment. It's primarily the waifu simps faltering in their resolve over learning about the nature and... ultimate conclusion to the romance options. It's a strange and impressive path to take narratively and they're not taking it so well, but their reactions ought to be taken with a grain of salt.

Stay far away, dataminers found a loooot of info on the companion quests, mythic path reactions and end-game plot points.

Actually, this is a very good sign. Not every game is heavily datamined; honestly, only Monster Hunter: World comes to my mind. Well, and all of the Dark Souls, for sure. To establish such reputation among the most avid and autistic players is something to be very proud of.

I guess CoD's and other money grabs are being datamined as well, but I think it's more commercial interest than pure enthusiasm there.

I mean from the KS it is clear that it is not planned at all no? And Owlcat Mythics seems really Mythical instead of just, well, Marshal.

Maybe they will make Mythic Paths DLC later.

 

[Elex]

Mythic sound like generic path

 

[InternalRevenue]

Are any of the Mythic paths suited for a neutral druid type character? Initially I thought the swarm might sort of fit that bill but now it sounds more fitting for

Spoiler

pathfinder Daemons

Kingmaker treated and represented true neutral well, so it's a bit disappointing if they don't have a like-minded Mythic path available.

There is none lol. Owlcat hates Druids.

The most suitable is probably Legend, that's it, staying human.

There's Azata, what with all of it's woodland friends. It seems more morally malleable than the likes of Lich or Angel.

Swarm is neutral (chaotic?) evil although it's kind of weird that it is. It's a concept taken from Lovecraft I believe, the worm-that-walks. For a neutral Druid, I'd go Aeon. Or maybe Gold Dragon/Azata. Being neutral doesn't mean you wouldn't do good deeds and everything should be gray or tinged with a little bit of malice to even it out.

Azata and Aeon, obviously.

Aeon is like being true neutral throught Time and Space.

Still can't play the fucken thing. Crashes to desktop all the time, and freezes.

>New Vegas launch flashbacks intensifies<

It's almost as if it's an alpha.... IM ANGGRIII .

When will the pre-order open for steam or GoG? I want throw some money on Owlcat's stupid face for making me wait and play their buggy game at launch.

If you have 2 graphic cards maybe set it up to use the better one. On mine it defaulted to use Intel graphic card.

When loading the game the first time don't do anything. Not even opening a browser. The alpha seems very resource consuming and doing anything else unless you have very good PC might cause problem.

It takes awhile to settle in but then goes reasonably smoothly. I hit my hiccup in Market Square. Make sure you don’t have the 100% Disk issue or any big memory hogs.
