Ianto saved Golarion

Legend!

I have closed the Worldwound for a second time, this time on the Legend mythic path, though having looked it up since I finished I discovered I did it the hard way by rejecting all the help. Had reasons though. ( Read more... )

I finished on Azata first because I thought it was Best Choices, and I found the ending very satisfying, so I was expecting Legend to be second best at best. But it turns out to have a satisfying ending too, thematically complete. It's a bit sad, but, it's a lot happy too.

Also Daeren ( Read more... )

Bringing Woljif and Daeran literally everywhere with me showed they have a lot of banter, and Daeren is chatty in general. I feel like next time I should leave those two at home to hear from someone else.

The Threshold fights were VERY difficult this time partly because I'd been using the same six characters all the time it wasnt a companion quest, and the others turned out to be built all wonky and useless. I never do math or have a coordinated plan for them, and my guesses were a bit of a mess. Still, they all survived.

... our entire strategy as a team was to die as much as it took to get the job done because Dae can always fix it. This is a bit not good. It's like asking 'what would Jack do' and getting the worst answer.

I liked the alignment shifts in Ianto's story here. I bought an Atonement when he kicked the Chaos habit but I held off on using it and just by choosing options he got back to his original alignment in good order. Felt more satisfying that way, just putting the work in.

So Trickster to Legend made a satisfying story of ( Read more... )

I really liked the way the story ended up on Trickster Legend.


I'm not actually tempted to go full Trickster because it turns out to be mean.


And I want to turn around and start again, possibly as an Angel this time, so the game is winning.



... but I have declared this month to be an xbox free zone from now on. No more games until September. Because I kind of dissappeared into this one and it wasn't helpful.

Winning though.

The thing is though
Torchwood and Pathfinder can't really cross over
because they have such different ideas of how people work.

I mean the magic is a big deal, obvs, but there's dead gods all over the story, you just say the gods blood is something something magic, handwavey no problem.

But a level 20 character only barely resembles themselves at level one.
Jack is old old now, but he's just persistently good at stuff he was quite good at to start with.
He's not attacking six times as fast as he started with a weapon in both hands while doing crazy evasion dodge things... Mostly.

And the Legend mythic path where you get to level 40? That's just fully nuts. By then you can be the best in the world without trying. You can get a skill + of over a hundred. Ianto out all of three ranks into knowledge arcana and only the full time wizard encyclopedist had a higher + than him by the end. It's nuts.

So you can put Ianto through an adventure path, but it'll take less time than he worked for Torchwood, and leave him with skill levels that can take on demigods and, with the right team, win.

At which point he has left his earlier context rather thoroughly.



I am overthinking it though. I mean, on Torchwood people know things at the speed of the plot, there's not exactly consistent difficulty levels there.

It just does feel different how people change in Pathfinder.
