A messy, lovable janky as heck RPG. Took me almost two years to beat because I kept playing it in small bursts. I don't recommend this to anyone who's never played a CRPG before, because it will whup your booty in ways that Divinity will not. But it actually takes itself seriously, and if you like D&D 3.5e or Pathfinder 1e, you'll dig this. D&D 5e and Pathfinder 2e players will also probably appreciate it, though you'll forever be reeling at how much got stuffed into Mathfinder - I mean, D&D 3.75e.

A few general tips for playing:
* Use acid flasks to kill the spider swarms in the first cave. This is literally the first thing that screws everyone unfamiliar with Pathfinder's ruleset.
* Don't be afraid to play on Easy or use the considerable difficulty adjustment settings. Seriously. This game was designed by min/maxers and I'm pretty convinced that the computer cheats, especially at later levels.
* The turn-based combat mode is cool but remember, this was designed for real time with pause combat, so there are dozens upon dozens of trash mobs. By the end, I was only using turn-based for important boss encounters.
* Get a Bag of Holding as soon as possible. Or if encumbrance is annoying you, just grab the Bag of Tricks mod and turn it off. In fact, install that mod along with this game, because it'll make some of the more obscene encounters waaaay more manageable and you'll want it for saving your butt when you accidentally piss off one of your romanceable party members beyond redemption.

Anyway, a ridiculous game at times but a good one. Wrote more about it here if you wanna read my deeper thoughts: https://pixelgrotto.tumblr.com/post/682909553453596672/the-long-process-of-making-a-king-i-have-like-no
