I highly recommend using a guide if you're not extremely chill about missing stuff.
I also realized partway through I really dislike pathfinder 1e, so i just started cheating, and then lost interest.
For what it's worth, Wrath of the Righteous is much better than Kingmaker in basically all regards.
If you just hate Pathfinder 1e then there's not really any saving that, but if your main gripe with Kingmaker was the story and quest design, WOTR significantly raised the bar there in my opinion.
I don't spend times on games that need a guide. Put clues in your games if that's what you're doing. I work way too much to learn every consequence of in game decisions that aren't at least hinted at. Reading a guide is just spoiling. Make good fucking games. If you give me a 20 hour gotcha I'll never play it again and tell others not to bother.
i am inclined to agree. the final fantasy 7 remake was surprisingly gentle about not having stupid missables. You could miss stuff, but it was recoverable without starting the whole thing over.
i had a whole argument with someone on here a while ago where they insisted i just had "fomo" because i didn't like this sort of surprise consequences. Foreshadowing is cool. Unpredictable is, to me, unsatisfying.
