Pathfinder Wrath of the Righteous - Epic Medieval Fantasy cRPG

what's up guys and gals welcome back to the nerd castle today in the world of indie games we're going to be checking out the new pathfinder game pathfinder wrath of the righteous uh the previous pathfinder game sort of i didn't get that far into it i'll be honest with you like it came out in a time where i was totally i was buried and just like crpgs and so honestly i didn't get a ton of time to play the previous game i did the impressions video of it but honestly there's only so much you can clean from the first 35 minutes of like a 40-hour rpg you know what i mean and so anyways when the first one came out i think that i was stuck playing path of not path of exile i was playing pillars of eternity a different poe i was playing pillars of eternity and i was playing the new torment game and like i was playing you know tyranny which to this day i think is probably one of the best rpgs ever made and it just kind of got lost in the shuffle so anyways today we're going to dive on and spend about 25 30 minutes with the game and see if it's something you wanted to add to your wish list hopefully this will be a good primer you can kind of take a look at the mechanics and figure out if it's something you wanted to go after if after watching this video you did want to do that uh you can go down below in the description i'll have a link for you that takes you to the steam page so that you can wishlist it for yourself and also you'll find my discord and my twitch stream and all those other associated things uh we can choose a storyline here so apparently these ones are not available what they've given me is kind of like a loose beta to sort of show off the game and so all we have is the main storyline so we'll go ahead and go with next over here we've got a whole bunch of things that we can fiddle around with it looks like this stuff kind of automatically shifts around and so it looks like the core right here is going to be oh yeah look at that it like adjusts it downwards so i guess the normal difficulty is actually lower than the core pathfinder difficulty if you've never played pathfinder before it's basically a game that came out right around the time that dnd 4.0 came out dnd 4.0 was largely reviled pretty much everybody hated it except for miniature war gamers and pathfinder is basically more or less an expanded version of 3.5 d d which is much beloved and so a huge chunk of the dnd community kind of shaved off and wizards of the coast lost a lot of market share over that gamble i respect the fact that they tried to do something different with 4th edition but at the same time 4th edition just didn't hit like an rpg to me it felt like the role play really suffered by comparison to kind of like the battles were cool but it seemed like it was really focused on being a tabletop miniatures game rather than being a role-playing rpg we'll put it on core difficulty for right now because like i'm no stranger to 3.5 i know 3.5 i've never played pathfinder but i know that they're very very similar so i assume it'll be fine all right so we get to choose what can we make a custom character here oh we can make a custom character here very nice all right well let's go through custom character generation because i think that's probably a smart decision first up we've got to go ahead and pick a portrait wrath of the righteous has a few new portraits but it looks like most of them are going to be imported from king maker which was the previous game ah this guy looks vaguely actually let's do a dwarf dude that's what we're going to do we're going to do a dwarf absolutely i love dwarves dwarves are my favorite they've been my favorite ever since in 3.5 i read a little snippet that was inside of the player handbook um that i'll talk about a little bit later i'm gonna go the cleric because it's my favorite class we can be an angel fire apostle use the power of good to avoid violence and cleanse maladies and evil creatures with blinding flames we have the crusaders who are the militant arm of the church we have the devil bane priest and so apparently the devil brain or the devil bane priest they have battlefield tactics to banish demons so they're kind of like exorcists i guess we have the ecclesiath urge uh a crusade-minded cleric who train intensively to learn proper battle wait hold on is it actually shifting here there we go issuing physical armor for protection by the strength of your faith they focus on miracles okay the herald caller unlike crusaders or paladins who charge headlong into battle hero colors are adept at calling powerful outsiders to aid their brethren in battle okay so i assume it's some kind of summoner maybe or some kind of like spirit caller possibly we have a priest of balance down here life and death are two sides of the coin clerics who did not give preference to either side can compensate both types of energy in themselves and become priests of balance okay well i like the idea of being a crusader so i think that's what we're gonna be we're gonna be a crusader can we go deep what happens if we go detailed oh wow okay so detailed we can actually like get up in here and we can start like kind of slotting things around so we have knowledge of arcana which means that we're gonna have the ability to identify magical things and no magical facts we have knowledge of the world we have persuasion and then we have knowledge of our lore religion so these are going to be for skill checks in these realms so if somebody i guess so somebody hypothesizes something that's loosely based on the magical systems of the world knowledge arcana will allow us to agree with them or like understand them same for like the world basically which is like geographical people and civilizations and stuff like that uh we also have kind of lore over here of our own religion which it's probably a good thing for a cleric to have knowledge of their own religion that's probably i don't think you're much of a cleric if you don't have that all right well we can close that down let's go next uh so we've already picked dwarf and we've already gone crusader so now we've gotta choose our background we could be a craftsman so this is where our character came from how he grew up uh we can be a craftsman we can be a no oh there's actually varied types of craftsmen that we could be well we're a dwarf so like i feel like you know a minor is not too hard a minor a smith is not too hard of an extrapolation since dwarves tend to put value on both of those handcrafted laborers but it looks like there's a number of other things we could potentially be as well so that's kind of cool i'll probably go with this one right here though and then we get to apply our stats so these stats are largely more or less the same as what you would expect from playing d d 3.5 we have strength which is how hard we hit in our chance to hit melee we have dexterity which is usually our range chance to hit has to do with a lot of stealth and things of that nature basically your hand-eye coordination everything associated with it constitution which is how sturdy you are personally so how resistant to disease and wounds and bleeding how much it takes to make you tap out uh we have our intelligence over here which is how smart we are we have our wisdom which is probably one of our core stats as a cleric it's going to affect our spell casting and whatnot uh wisdom so intelligence is being able to tell somebody that's tomatoes of fruit wisdom is the ability to know that it doesn't go in a fruit salad you see what i mean and then you've got charisma over here which is our ability to talk and reason and our ability to connect with people which obviously dwarves are found to be a little bit lacking when it comes to kind of dealing with people they're short fused since we're going to be fighting out in the world i do think having like a 14 in melee is probably a good idea dexterity doesn't have to be that great because if this follows the clerics from dnd we're going to be wearing heavy armor so like dexterity we can sort of neglect a little bit i think a 14 is fairly safe in constitution right there i think it's a good place to start as far as wisdom goes we're going to want that to be like a 16 or like a 17. we want that to be pretty good because for every two points we put in we get a bonus to the dice rolls that we're going to be going for a pathfinder uses a d20 system if you don't know what that means it means you roll a 20-sided die to do anything and in this case let's let's give you an example just in case you're a layman and you've never played a tabletop game before you're struck by a blow that blow has a chance to knock you off of your feet and onto your ass you have to make a constitution role to resist the fact that it's going to knock you down you roll a d20 and let's say that you have to roll higher than a 10 in order to avoid being knocked from your feet you would roll your d20 and you would add a two to it and whatever you roll is your score so obviously having a higher modifier over here increases your chances of getting through more and more difficult skill checks so this represents something we're like actively good at i'm gonna even out my charisma real fast because i think like having negatives is not something that i've ever really liked i'm always a person that kind of takes a standard spread and like modifies it a little bit but then we've got a few points to play around with here i think it's not a bad idea to go after maxing out wisdom and being really really wise the other alternative is that we could put some points into strength and constitution to make ourselves able to stand in the line a little bit better so that we can heal people effectively since we're a crusader and we're role playing that i am going to bump up my strength a little bit i think i'm going to bump up my con ever so slightly just in case i want to take that up to a 16 and get the plus three at some point and then we'll see if we can get to 18 right there and that's actually that's a pretty baller character for d and d that's a pretty good character that really doesn't have any weak points to strike at and so i'll take it over here we've got our skill points so skill points are going to be additional modifiers that are added to those dice rolls that i was talking about previously so in the case of athletics right here to give you an example we would make a strength check to lift like a big boulder to free a civilian that had been trapped by it uh we would take our strength check plus our strength modifier so we'd roll a d20 add our strength modifier and then we would add this modifier right here with the points that we put in and you know it would give us a pretty solid chance actually based on this stuff to lift that boulder i don't think we're gonna need most of this stuff we have laura in nature for some reason or we're getting a bonus for lauren nature perception is good persuasion is nice but we're not really built that way i would say that having like a knowledge arcana right here would probably be a good idea so we have athletics and knowledge of arcana these right here going to be the marks that indicate these are core skills for our character so we'll take those and we're all out of points right there over on this side we've got our feats so feats are like perks if you've ever played fallout uh feats are effectively perks they're things that you can just do based on your class your race and your job selections i'm gonna kind of go through these and figure out which ones i want to take since we're making a classic cleric i'm gonna go for the simple choice and just go with heavy armor so that we can wear plate mail and then we'll move on to what's next we get to choose what god we want to go after so we have abaddar who is this god of law effectively and so it looks like just about anybody can take him that's lawful we have asmodius that's all about kind of neutral and evil alignments the king of hell we have atheism which means we don't believe in anything which seems like a bad place to start for a cleric uh we have kalistra who is apparently the goddess of lust and revenge okay we have caden kalian the god of alcohol bravery and freedom well i got i got to go with that one dude the the god of liquor and freedom sounds great to me and then we have the ability to either channel positive negative or positive energy or negative energy here okay so it's like an ability uh this is effectively turn undead uh from what i'm reading in the what i'm reading in this over here and then we gotta choose what domain so this is kind of like the magical schools that our caster will specialize in you choose what domains you're strong in i would say that goodness is probably a good thing for us to take or strength possibly since we're a crusader i think that strength sounds pretty appealing but also um good seems like a pretty pretty rad thing to take as well but i'll go with strength for right now uh weapon focuses over here we get to pick a weapon that we're better with we could also take martial weapons proficiency which would allow us to get access to a lot more weapons as of right now i don't know actually what we're proficient in at the moment i would assume nothing so i'll probably take martial weapons proficiency just so we have access to more weapons that we can play around with this gives me access to like flails and picks and hammers and stuff like that i could take the weapon focus and i could get the proficiency as like a bonus to it basically but i would only be able to use that one weapon and like you know i think thematically there's a number of weapons we could take uh we've got to choose our alignment this is a tough one to explain to people while we're kind of like in the heat of the moment uh but anyways it's split up into different pie slices and i'll probably cut this video a little longer so that we can see more gameplay since i'm spending so much time in the character creator we've got lawful good lawful good that means that with respect to the law you respect the law and with regards to the struggle between good and evil you tend to favor good neutral means that you don't really care about the law either way but you tend to align yourself with the forces of good chaotic good means that you don't care about the law at all as long as it accomplishes the good uh chaotic neutral means that you're just chaos unbridled you kind of are a creature of whimsy you basically go wherever the wind takes you uh you've got lawful neutral which means you tend to favor the law but you don't get involved with struggles between good and evil you don't really care about who wins there lawful evil means that you do care about the law and you tend to use that towards evil gains uh neutral evil means that you don't really care about the law and you tend to apply yourselves towards evil stuff chaotic evil means that you are real real evil you're a pretty bad guy as far as that goes i'll probably go chaotic good because that's kind of the classic anti-hero role all right so let's see what we can do with our character here we've got a number of faces we can play around i like that guy right there he looks kind of grim we've got a number of skin tones here that we can select between i'll probably just go with the default this one looks a little jaundiced for me so i'll probably go for that right there we've got hairstyles we can play around with i tend to like the flowing locks although is that a braid right there yeah i'll go with that right there that looks good and then we're a dwarf so obviously we've got to have like a respectable beard here like a beard that makes people say yep this man plays a dwarf i like that one right there so i think i'm going to go with that and then we're going to have our hair be black so that it matches our portrait we can choose our primary colors over here for our outfit i'm always partial to kind of like greens and whites that tends to be sort of the the colors earth tones tend to be things that i'm a fan of so we can go with that right there i mean if we really wanted to diversify we could go for like a green right there and then we could go for kind of a white outline yeah i think that looks okay and then we've got voices together we stand yeah dude that sounds like the uh that sounds like the the stereotypical dude there we go we'll go with brave and then we've often got to have a good dwarvish name something with lots of consonants like off nar that sounds good and then apparently we got to choose our birthday and our birth month i don't really have any preference here so we'll go with the 12th of frost that sounds good and there's our total character sheet right there let's play the game oh hey somebody we got a wounded fighter can we get a healer over here my my would you look at this but why would you drag a wounded fighter into the middle of the festival square couldn't he be carted off somewhere else like oh i don't know an infirmary or an accommodating ditch apparently we've got a spell effect that's stuck on screen right now little not not ideal not not crazy ideal we'll see if it goes away make room everyone step back now what's the matter what happened to him hmm the wound looks nasty who did this to him that escalated quickly like hmm this situation is a predicament who did this apparently this man has a sentimental attachment to my beardiness demons prelit we found her barely alive outside the walls of canaabrus the walls you say the enemy doesn't usually stray so close to the city we must fortify the defenses and you hold fast don't die we'll see you right [Music] we'll get you patched up now but first you there guard take his weapons bearing arms is not permitted during the festival wounded or not everyone must abide by the rules he can get his things back after the festival i've played this game before i've played enough tabletop rpgs to see exactly where this is going we're going to get taken to the infirmary the town is going to get attacked during the festival and i'm going to have to find my weapons i'm calling it if i'm wrong i'm inherited leader of our troops the sharpened edge of our blades and the unyielding strength of our armor ioma day i beseech you grant your mercy heal his wounds dwarves don't make sounds like or ah when we're wounded so i'm going to grip my teeth in silence my powers are not enough here someone call for turandalev you there yes you stop dithering and gobbing and make yourself useful go and get tyrandelev prelit surely there is somebody else here better suited to running errands i'll get her tyrandelev has anyone seen tyrandelev see sela's got my back right here i like sela this lady was like yeah i don't want to help a commoner this lady was like i'm going for aid immediately be quick about it before it's too late now who are you i don't remember seeing you before and i have an excellent memory for faces i'm a crusader i came to fight demons saved me from green recruits they come without planning without preparation and they die before they even see their first real battle i don't know whether to laugh or cry at the utter waste of it all my dear prelate please for the sake of the festivities stop interrogating this poor man he has been through enough already go on i'll take care of him all right as you wish you are our protector and a dragon at that so i shall defer to your wisdom but be on your guard i've been informed he was wounded near canabrus that means the demons are prowling just outside the walls and the city is crawling with their spies others may be able to relax on this holiday but not you or i not the defenders of this city yes lose the grudging grip of pain cast off the veil of suffering flesh let light and life go forth in triumph to repel the skulking shade of death there after that spell casting speech i don't really know what to say so i'm just gonna be like thank you i appreciate you healing my horrible kidney wounds i accept your thanks but my work is not yet done uh who are you my name is terendalev i am the protector of the city are you actually a dragon you don't believe me perhaps i should retake my true form and engulf this square with my ice breath to win your trust [Music] pay no minds to my current guys i appear this way when i walk among the people i would hamper the festivities if i tried to attend in my true form i like how they actually recorded a melodious laugh in between they're like with a lot of tabletop rpg like conversions into video games like they'll read the actual written script like the talking parts but then with all like the flavor stuff in between like the grunts and the groans and the size that are indicated by a text like they ignore that and they just jump straight to the next part it creates like a break in immersion i guess for me so i like that they took the effort to actually do that i do not know yet and that troubles me i am not entirely sure what the demons did to you this wound is no ordinary injury and it was inflicted by no ordinary weapon i have rid you of your pain and restored your strength but only time will allow you to heal fully apparently i was hit by an unknown weapon everybody else is having festival day and i got kicked in the face with a mortal boot certainly but be careful i have managed to get you back on your feet but i have not healed you fully alas sooner or later your pain will return but do not be discouraged you will recover i promise you that tomorrow come to the cathedral and say that you are expected by surrender we will find a way to help you but for now put this out of your mind and enjoy the festival they are all too rare in this time of war and merriment is one of the best medicines it's true one time i got i got a machete embedded in my face and i didn't go to the hospital instead i went to disneyland and it healed right up all right so i've been given control of my character i like the oh cool so if you move farther than a certain distance he sprints into like he changes into like a sprint stance okay all right fair enough and we've been given free access to the camera for right now i don't know exactly who i'm supposed to be interacting with but i'd like to get on to the action that's what i want i want to beat some demons down in classic form uh there's aravashniyal who are you i have a feeling something terrible is gonna happen well it is a tabletop rpg so obviously we can't all there's no such thing as a tabletop rpg where everybody just lives happily pays their mortgage raises some kids and dies peacefully that's just it's not how these things work looks like i can go up on this training dummy right here yeah let's hit the training dummy dude i got to show off my dwarvish strength there it is oh another dwarf is challenging me right now dude are you challenging me bro apparently i hit the mannequins so that's cool apparently i've gotta drink a drink and throw a dart all right so let's find a drink around here uh this looks like a place where i can get a beverage oh there's a little person right here who are you are you a halfling are you a little kid that's drinking heavily i can't tell what about sela does she want to say anything to me yes terendalev did indeed help me is there anything i can interact with around here you can hold down tab to interact with stuff so here's the dartboard over here let's go throw a dart at it and see how that goes i assume they're just teaching me how to do like melee and ranged attacks yeah throw a dart at that thing get it i'm pretty good at darts bro i'm a pretty solid darts player did i win it looks like it hit the middle i knew it i knew it okay some shadow glitches right there with the beta why do they always have to do this during maypole festival day like why can't they just do it on any other average thursday where i've got to go to work you know what i lord of mean leave my city [Music] that dragon was not nearly as baller as i expected that dragon to be plan let me help you out i've got a scroll here with a good protective spell uh what's the situation in the city knows everything's on fire crashing down around our ears place is crawling with demons looks like a whole army attacked the city we're sitting ducks give me a weapon sure thing here take this best crossbar bro the person who made it said it could pierce the heart of a demon lord even a crossbow i have no dexterity no now oh dude oh no we are not playing to my strengths right now a mortal knot snaps its jaws at the lord [Music] why is it always i always fall into a pit on festival day man why can't i just have one festival day where i don't lose altitude that's all that i want i just want to remain at sea level the silver dragon tyrandelev the defender of canabras fell in battle hardly surprising as she had to fight the demon lord discari himself he willed the land to part and swallow all who dared to stand in his way but the war was still far from over well see the way that she messed up is that she did her transformation in combat she should have turned into a dragon like that's like the dbz thing like they always let the other guy transform instead of attacking him while he's transforming like she made the classic mistake and her enemy just attacked her while she was transforming it's a bad look here i am in the bottom of a pit surrounded by fungus is there anything interactable around here let's take a look nothing off nar doesn't have a whole lot of things that are catching his notice i was a dead guy over here which is really sort of unfortunate i knew sela was gonna be a character apparently she's pinned down by weighty boulders hey hey stay with me you actually got pretty lucky you fell down into a black hole but at least you're not on your own you've got a great companion everything's going to be just fine tell me something can you feel your legs i feel them all right one say no do a little less feeling in them my ankle's killing me but my back seems to still be in one piece my head too that's all that matters now we're going to hey fancy meeting you down here you're the one that tyrundel have healed today right you aren't injured are you will you help me get her out from under the boulders yup let's go ahead and do an athletics check we didn't put all them points into strength and athletics for nothing let's do it wow lift with your leg yeah you got to get the pump yeah nice summoning all your strength you lift up the rocks to free the wounded woman from the rubble and then we take like if there was the dm here right now i'd be like i also take 30 seconds to stand there flexing afterwards and just showing off my bulging biceps and rippling frame you know my arms looking like bags of undulating you know vascular snakes there you gotta think you gotta get the description right damn it all i think it's broken oh well i've had worse i'll just make myself a splint out of something thanks for the help i wouldn't have lasted long on my own stuck under there i'm a nevia tirabate of the eagle watch i was overseeing security at the festival square i thought maybe spies or demon worshipers might have something nasty planned what actually happened though now that i did not see coming i don't think anyone could have been prepared for that well i'm sila paladin by the grace of ioma day i crossed the whole continent to come to mendev and fight demons and well i've been fighting for a while now i don't even want to think what might be happening up there in the city canabras has lost the protection of tyrandelev and of the wardstone 2 looks like it's a relic without equal it was placed here personally by iomede's herald with the goddesses blessing i really wanted to go see it to pray before it but there's no point worrying about a stone when there are people dying in the streets yeah things are looking grim enough but don't lose heart wardstone or no dragon or no cannabis will never give in simple as well we've introduced ourselves what about you my name's ofnar good to meet you now tell us all about yourself right now we're at the bottom of a chasm i don't know if this is the time for all right well first i woke up then i had don't have time to be toasts life stories we need to find a way out of here there we go anivia's being a realist right now now then i'll hobble my way out of here somehow the city ain't far only 30 paces or so that's if you're going straight up of course i'm afraid we're gonna have to go the long way round to summarize there are three of us with five working legs three pairs of decent hands two clear heads and one made of wood that's mine underground monsters beware anevia you stay behind us you're in no fit state to fight if we do come up against anything the two of us will try to manage on our own first well onward may the good deities lead us back to the open sky soon i mean we've got a paladin a cleric that's a pretty classic combo for just like wrecking face we've got our bases covered i think we'll be all right all right so let's take these two it uses the same classic controls that you'd expect from any crpg you just rubber band box people and then you can move them around uh we'll take a look around see if there's anything here that we can possibly loot yeah this goods crate is a good idea in my opinion looks like we've got a flail inside of there we've got a cloak and we've got torches okay we'll take those uh let's go over to the inventory menu down here in the bottom left-hand corner and i got to get that equipped like i'm just i'm not good with the stuff that they gave me it looks like we can have four different weapon sets i assume that these are gonna be like supplementary weapons it looks like our weight is actually tracked which normally for rpgs they don't do that i'm gonna wear the cloak dude hopefully it's not cursed oh the cloak didn't show up and neither did my my super awesome flail weak dude weak i guess i can put that in my off hand so that i can see good the torch showed up she's got a sword and board so we don't want to give her much else she's already got a bow what is that terenda live scale oh we took a scale from the dragon's body who that's opportunist all right not sure if it's something that i would have risked but like go for it man dragon scales probably have some kind of cumulative value who are you who's there relax friend we're not demons or cultists don't poke my eye out with that thing all right we fell down here during the attack i'm sila that's a nevia and this is our new friend we're looking for a way back to the surface really i'm so ever glad to hear it allow me to introduce myself i am camellia i was also in the square when when i can scarcely believe it how did all those demons get into the city i thought naively it now seems that the ward stone protected us from attack and tyrandelev i can't wrap my head around it um who is this guy i don't know he must have been in the square when disaster struck i tried to revive him but he was already dead sadly he didn't get these wounds from the fall be on your guard whatever killed him likely hasn't gone far hang on i think i know him his name's aravashnil the egghead from the library he was a good lad even if he was kind of stuck up may his soul rest in peace you want to join us certainly survivors should stick together it's only sensible who knows what else could be prowling about in these caves yay new friends uh let's go ahead and get moving right it would be the height of foolishness to survive a demon attack only to perish under a pile of rubble let's see if this poor bloke has anything useful on him not to sound like a heartless brigand or nothing but we kind of need all the supplies we can get right now all right oh she's bleeding oh never mind she's like slightly wounded do i have a magic spell that i can cast on her to like fix that so it looks like we can enlarge someone i can also bless people that'll increase their hit chance but it looks like actually most of my spells are not for healing do i have a spell book around here i do have a spell book interesting okay so we're probably gonna want to like get cure light wounds in here somewhere that'd probably be a smart idea it actually kind of looks like i can only have one spell for right now slide it on into my spellbook so we've got our enlarged person and then we've got what does a large person do it gives them a plus two size bonus gotcha okay so it just makes you like bigger that's pretty much all that it does okay well it is what it is we've got a rest in order for me to get that back i assume that this might be the key for resting actually i don't know what that key is right there there it is we got oh we cannot okay you must gather your party before venturing forth all right well oh yeah we gotta loot the dead guy too dead guy let me get your stuff uh he's got a knife it's a masterwork knife so that's pretty cool whoever made is probably proud of themselves ew dude there's giant centipedes slay them there you go we're just gonna go all out melee for right now and just like hope for the best are they gonna auto target or do i have to like manually do it oh she got sneak attack nice so it's automatically factoring in that bonus so she must be a rogue she gets extra damage for attacking something that's already engaged now we've got armor over here we've got a little bit of money and we've got a bottle of oil okay all right sounds good i am gonna i am gonna throw on this armor because i am remarkably nude right now like remarkably and obviously nude that's gonna give us one armor class okay sounds good let's keep moving now hello oh that's a big bug right there yeah go ahead and stab that thing on up dude my flail still isn't rendering maybe i can try to get my flail to render here it's bothering me i want my where's my flail at dude it looks like i'm punching them with my bare hand but i know that i'm not what if i put it into a different slot can i have that then i mean we're getting the bonus from the flail it's just not showing up right now but that's one of those little bugs that i hope is resolved before the game releases we also had some issues with the shadows during that cinematic when the dragon was getting attacked make me feel a little bit concerned we'll battle our way through here do the standard fair rpg stuff killing monsters oh apparently i gave him an attack of opportunity that's my bad i didn't mean to maybe i should just let them kind of auto battle on their own instead of fiddling with things looks like we killed him so we're okay it looked like i was hobbled for a second i thought my guy was limping we've got something over here looks like maybe oh a corpse okay that's exactly what i want to find right about now next to a huge pile of bugs there you go get on in there perfect all right so let's see if we can loot this guy right here this has got a forked tongue which apparently is a crafting reagent i can live with that sounds like a plan now we've taken a little bit of damage out here i think we're gonna have to rest soon yeah wipe out everything you can i guess trying to look at these attack animations here they look okay they don't look too bad the sound effects are nice i definitely think the sound effects have like a beefy weightiness to them uh but then again the attack animations i think hey there's more people over here hold on i gotta check and see what's down this way it's my it's my only option i'm the kind of player where i can't just like go down one path and not look and see what's down the other path and see there was a dead guy over here there's another deaden over on this side and i need to know if he's got anything rad in his pockets he's got a mace right there got some bracers of armor plus one okay 25 bucks and it looks like some cure light wounds potions i think the cure light wounds potions are a really really good plan oh she was trying to t pose on a fool right here some frame rate issues inside the menu right here for undisclosed reasons i don't know if it's due to the lighting hey my mace shows up well i guess i'm equipping a mace then i i don't see any other way around it uh use the potion heal yourself up and then use that potion to heal yourself up i would have liked it if we had had you know a cure light wounds on our character from the beginning luckily there doesn't seem to be any stutters or any frame rate issues inside the grader game it's mostly just on menus and it looks like during some of the cinematics i guess so that's that's okay it's tolerable i suppose in we go freshly good to go and ready to meet new for that guy's got spiders coming out of his back i don't like that no i can't just walk away it's got to be here somewhere where to walk lan did you find it who is that the do-gooders here to save our mongrel's souls no doubt wait they might know what's going on up there uh demons are wrecking people's faces if things are as bad as you say then we all have to hurry you didn't come from the direction of the shield mace damn it i couldn't care less about what's happening on the surface but the maze i realize that you guys have your own troubles but we need to be in canada's people are dying up there please show us the way out all right so what are you doing here we're looking for a holy sword it was here in the center sticking out of a rock the sooner we find it the better some kids from our tribe took off for the shield maze they figured it had collapsed and now it's their time to go up to the surface like all the legends foretold except they don't have a clue what's waiting for them up there they're not fighters and saul the chief of our tribe is dead set against it he says that now isn't the time for the underground crusaders to take up arms if we get the holy sword we might be able to change the chief's mind it's a fool's errand none of us will be able to hold the sword let alone use it to save anyone it's not an ordinary weapon it's made from righteous heavenly flame and will burn anyone who touches it do you think your special land i'll pick it up with my teeth and tie it to my hand if i have to it doesn't matter an angel sword and a troop of stalwart mongrels will be able to work a minor miracle uh speaking of which you're still here wendu which means that deep down you know it's possible all right well let's go ahead and find the sword an extra pair of eyes can only help the sword will be easy enough to spot it looks sorty help us and in return we'll get you out of here now we're talking let's get to work it's a good thing we all bumped into each other isn't it what you want to find the sword quickly so the underground monsters bring you back to the surface so be it there you go uh this is pathfinder wrath of the righteous and we've just kind of done the beginning portions of the game hope you guys enjoyed it we're about out of time for the length of videos that i tend to do but i tried to cut it a little bit longer so that you could see just sort of how things are going thus far i'm interested i'm definitely in the mood for a new crpg uh it does look like there's some minor graphical issues coming up with the shadows and then also with the rendering of objects and kind of the frame rate inside of menus the voice acting is nothing to write home about but like it's passable it has its good moments and it's bad moments thus far i mean it's typical campy fantasy game voiceovers i don't know like i don't expect like firewatch level miracles out of games that have like 80 trillion lines of recorded dialogue you know what i mean uh so anyways my name is splattercat i sift through the pile to find what's worthwhile in the world of indie games every single day so you don't have to today up on the chopping block we had pathfinder wrath of the righteous tomorrow will likely be something else i'll see y'all next time thank you for stopping on in how you doing take care everybody
