You have 25 basic classes all going up to level 20, each with 6-7 subclasses. In fact, I'd go so far as to say that Wrath's character building is currently unrivaled. And what with this being Owlcat's second Pathfinder RPG, it has more of everything compared to Kingmaker. And if you didn't, or if some of the finer details elude you still, Wrath has this neat dynamic tutorial system that pops up every once in a while to give you some useful bit of advice, like if your character has been blinded, and instead of removing that condition you keep fighting like that, or when you have a clearly better item than what you're currently wearing just sitting in your inventory. Meaning that if at some point you've played a D&D RPG along the lines of Baldur's Gate or Neverwinter Nights, you'll know what to expect. In short, the game is based on the first edition of Pathfinder that in turn is a spiritual continuation of Dungeons & Dragons' third edition. Now, as you might have guessed, Wrath is using some iteration of the Pathfinder tabletop ruleset, which makes my job a bit tricky, because if I were to sit here and explain all of Pathfinder's quirks and intricacies, we'd be here all week. So, above anything else, it's important to note that the game is very fun to play, and it does manage to evoke that rare feeling of wonder that comes with exploring a truly deep and expansive RPG. With the latter being a remote afterthought. And perhaps even more shockingly, that enthusiasm persisted, and for several weeks my life consisted of two things: Pathfinder and Not-Pathfinder. The clock was showing around 3 in the AM when I vaguely remembered that sleep was a thing people did. That didn't last past my first day with the game. As such, the prospect of getting lost in a massive campaign was a bit daunting. Anything more, and I tend to lose interest. At this point, I generally prefer my video games to last somewhere between 20 to 40 hours. Just When I Thought I Was Out Not getting any younger myself, I have to admit I had my reservations prior to diving into Wrath. But were they successful? Read on to find out. Older, wiser, and more experienced - the developers had every opportunity to create a truly spectacular video game here. And this now leads us to Pathfinder: Wrath of the Righteous, Owlcat Games' second go at creating a massive CRPG based on a deep tabletop ruleset. Introduction When Owlcat Games released Pathfinder: Kingmaker back in 2018, that expansive CRPG with an abundance of classes, quests, and systems came pretty close to being a worthy successor to the Baldur's Gate throne, but it wasn't quite ready to dethrone the king just yet.
