Pathfinder: Wrath of the Righteous - Kickstarter Update and new Partner
 

Owlcat Games announced their partnership with META Publishing for Wrath of the Righteous and here's the new Kickstarter update:

Thanks Redglyph!

More information.

Just got this downloaded to try out the updates over the weekend!

This game seems to become demanding, like Solasta. Just staying in the menu takes more than 50% GPU… and it's static, there's nothing there.
I'm wondering if the new Unity versions have something wrong with the RTX cards.

The little of the UI I saw seemed much more polished (my preferred improvement is that the main menu appears instantly now, no more waiting for the zoom-in effect). And those classes… I don't even know how to choose, so many of them! :D Which is fine if it takes more time, there's a nice music during the character creation process.

Use FRAPS or a similar program to see what your framerate is in the menu. If your GPU use is due to a really high framerate, forcing vsync might help. It's a common issue in Unity Engine games.

I'm already capping it at 60. Some people had this problem in other games, indeed, but I didn't.

The only game that had an issue was NWN: EE since the latest graphic improvements. First time I heard some whistling noise when starting the game, it was running at 200-300 FPS ;)

I'll just turn features down, SSR is one of most impacting ones apparently (in a menu, wtf?).

I wish this kind of orchestra music was available on CD, too …

I just remember the launch of the first Pathfinder, and while, in the end, I did enjoy the game, I'll be waiting this one out, long after the full release and subsequent patching take place. I do look forward to playing it eventually, though, and I'm glad they've a new partner, it also pleases me to see them schedule the release for so many platforms.

Interestingly enough, the soundtrack will be available on vinyl. The price is kind of ridiculous though.

Honestly, I probably won't be able to resist playing it right away, and I expect that after Kingmaker's rocky start, this will ship in pretty good shape.

September is coming!

Me too.

Me three but then I have been playing both the alpha and beta and eager to finally play to the end :)

Yeah, about that… I have a question for those that have beta access: how the game is doing concerning bugs? Is it a smoother experience than KM?

Lol, this autumn is shaping up to be intense.

I haven't played Solasta yet, the summer heat has kept me away from most gaming. Just tried it out a little bit, same thing with "Encased", same story with "Colony ship".

Then I have also bought a couple of non-rpgs "Everspace 2" and "Jupiter Hell" and then the soon to be ea "Black Geyser" and the upcoming "Expeditions:Rome" and finally "Pathfinder" that impacts in September….

So much interesting gaming to do, not enough time…:smug:

I haven't played beta 3 yet (this last update) except what I wrote above. Beta 2 still had a lot of bugs because they wanted to put as many features as possible for us to test before focusing on bugs, so it was "on purpose" if you will.

Seeing how much GPU it's using in beta 3, I don't think I'll be playing it.

If I were you I'd wait a little bit after the final release and ask then.

Coincidentally, I have planned a two-week holiday around that time. ;)

Bad programming all over the place. This is ridiculous. These games should run well on DirectX 9.

Thanks. Looking forward to playing WotR, but I will wait until the game is polished. That's because I am a traumatized backer of PFKM. I loved the game, I have played hundreds of hours. But the bugs ruined my first playthrough, they literally ruined my kingdom and I had to cheat to complete the game.

Nod Gabriel, I took an over three year hiatus from the game because of the very same faults, and a week after I came back to finally complete it, they did yet ANOTHER huge update. What lesson did that teach me? Sometimes waiting over three years simply isn't long enough, this time I'll be a wiser cat. I look forward to playing it for sure, yet not being constantly frustrated either.

You were really unlucky on this one :( Just before, it was mostly fine.

Ah, the art of waiting just long enough before playing a game… ;)
