Pathfinder: should I start with Kingmaker or Wrath of the Righteous? Or it doesn't matter? - eviltoast

Hi!

So a few days ago, a friend of mine recommended me this game (just to be clear, I’m talking about the videogame) and it seemed really interesting. He kept talking about Wrath of the Righteous but as I looked it up later, I found out about Kingmaker.

I didn’t really get any conclusive answer on whether I should play through the first one and then Wrath of the Righteous or not, so I’m guessing it doesn’t really matter story-wise.

Nonetheless, since I didn’t see anything regarding this game here on Lemmy, and in an effort to drive up some discussion and/or add to our small but growing knowledge base, I come to you with this question.

Also, do you like the games? And which one do you recommend to start with?

Thanks!

    I haven’t finished either game, but i agree with everyone else in that Wrath is a much better game in terms of balance and options, and there’s no story overlap that you’d be missing if you started with wrath. If you get kingmaker on sale, the first arc is a decent story in itself and is actually the inspiration for my next campaign, so there’s definitely some enjoyable content in there
