Turn-based Combat mod for Pathfinder: Kingmaker \\ Preview, tutorial and opinion

[Game kNight Plays]

Hey buddies, I am loving this mod, and thought I would spread the word about it. This video contains an introduction to the Turn-based combat mod, a tutorial and my opinions on the mod. Enjoy!

Note the mod has been updated since my video, and it is now possible to toggle the mod with a key shortcut, on a pr. combat basis.

As warned in the video and from Owlcatgames - "A friendly reminder: while we deeply admire the contribution that mod authors make to our game, we would like you to remember that running custom modifications can lead to unexpected bugs and crashes. Unfortunately, if you encounter any issues while playing with mods, our team will not be able to help you. If this happens, please report these issues to the mod's original creator. Also, remember that after each game update, there is a high probability of previously installed mods not functioning properly. If you wish to play with mods anyway, disabling auto-updates might prevent your save files from becoming corrupted."

Reinstalled the gane and added this mod to try a Sword Saint build! Maybe I'll finish the game now.

3 people I know bought Kingmaker because of this mod. They play Pathfinder (the tabletop RPG) and couldn't understand why the CRPG version wasn't turn-based, but now they're all playing Kingmaker because of this mod.

I love this mod.

pity that makes it a mod of the game makes it playable, apparently the developers can not do that well, really sad, but the mod is awesome just fantastic.

This exactly - I talked to the devs during the alpha, pleading them to make a turn-based option available as it would hit home with a lot of players that are used to the TT game, but to no avail.

This mod saves the game for a lot of people!

I still loved the game beforehand, enough to spend several dozen hours on it, but this mod definitely takes the combat from being "meh" to being "actually as much fun as the story" for me.

It's even already turned some hair-pulling moments like the Stag Lord siege into actually fun. I look forward to trying some other areas like Pitax that I hated to see if this improves them.

Using it and really enjoying it as well! Before I was constantly pausing to issue orders, now turn by turn.. :-D

while i still think tbs has to be designed from the get go, its with the mod so much better as with RTwP........and suddenly you can use skills that were nearly useless before

[Adeptus Stark]

When they were kickstarting the game RTwP may have beat out the Turn Based vote, but it was close if I recall.

I understand they only have so much time to make these games but they should strive to have both options to get as many fans as possible to purchase the game. Especially when the material they created the game from is turn based.

Exactly this, he has done them a huge favor by making this mod!

It would be nice if it could be adjusted and implemented into the base game at some point.

I agree - the TB mod makes the game appeal to a much larger audience!
