  8.1

  Pathfinder: Wraith of the Righteous is a worthy sequel as it’s packed full of lore and interesting storylines. The customization involved in the game is off the scale and allows users to tailor the experience to their own tastes. I think they could have done more to create a really simple approach for those not familiar with these games as some of the choices can become overwhelming and complex. But there are hours of exploration, story, loot, and fighting where this game delivers well.

  With an enthralling narrative, evocative world, and nearly endless build variety and replay value, Wrath of the Righteous is a glorious game to get lost in for whole weeks at a time.

  6.5

  Overall, Inevitable Excess is a small addition to Pathfinder: Wrath of the Righteous that doesn’t quite measure up to the base game. The DLC is unsure of what story it wants to tell and which features it should prioritize. I’d tentatively recommend it to players looking for more Pathfinder content as long as they know what they are getting into and don’t mind getting lost in the Other Side of Threshold.

  7.8

  Pathfinder: Wrath of the Righteous is a grand and ambitious adventure and an impressive adaptation of a popular tabletop RPG. The eclectic characters feel alive, though the thought of that literally being true is terrifying. In some ways, it feels like too standard a CRPG; in others, it stretches the conventions of that subgenre in fascinating directions.

  6.0

  Pathfinder: Wrath of the Righteous is an enjoyable game that will delight players of the tabletop version who won’t mind a more straightforward experience. While newcomers may also be capable of enjoying it, a good amount of time will be required in order to get used to the mechanics.

  7.0

  Despite my misgivings with many of the Crusade-related mechanics, needless management systems, and prevalent bugs -- past all of that is an engaging game that is still easy to recommend to fans of RPGs. A strong narrative that carries itself for the entirety of its lengthy runtime, a huge cast of compelling characters that interface with the story in smart ways, plenty of unique buildcraft, gorgeous art, a variety of quests, and a true commitment to consequence make Pathfinder: Wrath of the Righteous one of the most ambitious RPGs of the year, even if it ultimately falls short.
