Honestly, Pathfinder also has one of the lowest completion rates than any other isometric rpg. Add that plus problems on the statute, I wonder how this will affect the sale of the sequel. I hope that the situation with PoE2 will not happen again, which was a much better game than PoE1.
The reason I couldn’t finish Pathfinder Kingmaker was not the combat; it was the kingdom building. I couldn’t stand micromanaging a kingdom and I know I’m not alone in this. I just wanted to have a group of adventurers and find adventure.
The combat was fine. And this is coming from a guy who thinks 3.5e which Pathfinder is based upon, is way too number crunchy.
It’s the same reason I am hesitant about the sequel. It seems to have mythic play where you lead armies. Again, it’s not something I enjoy in my cRPGs.
