Hello everyone, in this guide I aim to provide helpful information about Pathfinder: Kingmaker for new players. This guide is focused on the first game (Wrath of the Righteous features different mechanics and changes to gameplay).

I will provide several tips and suggestions in this guide to help you get started with the game without having to feel too overwhelmed or frustrated with the very complex system that this game uses.

If you want to see me play the game on the higher difficulties and in Last Azlanti (hardcore/iron man mode) for extra challenge, you can find my ongoing playthrough here: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLg9GM2jv_Yxevut2DXV_bMb6sT2-Ge00f
