beccaelizabethI finished playing Pathfinder Kingmaker on Easy with a Lawful Good character who worships Sarenrae and tends to Neutral Good options.
... I am disatisfied with the ending I achieved.
At a couple of crucial moments there werent the options I would hope for.
So I looked it up and some of them are only possible if you Romance the nymph lady? Like specifically a kissing kind of thing, not just Neutral Good we can forgive you kind of things. And that annoys me.
Not least because I can never tell which dialogue this game thinks is Romance and it crashed so many times I dont know which conversations we had ANYway.
Also right at the end my character blew a couple of skill checks and the options we were presented with for endings just... seemed to screw over someone I was trying to save, and wouldnt work for religious people.
First world immortality means never going to your goddess.
Also Tris got scared he'd go to Pharasma and not his goddess if he died as a mortal, but Pharasma is the judge, so she'd send him on if he lived a Sarenrae sort of life, as I understand it. So that was a Lore Religion fail that was scaring him, as far as I can see.
ANYway, the limited nature of computer rpgs annoys me again, I feel like I could do much better if I started over and played it again but it keeps crashing too much for that to be any fun at all, and all games should have options to redeem everyone without kissing.
But I played it and won it and might be pleased about that later.
... now I dont know what to play. I may be more likely to go back to paper Pathfinder than find another computer game that doesnt make me motion sick and does have a satisfying story. Shall see.
