Many stories to tell
Pathfinder: Wrath of the Righteousis, by all accounts, a massive RPG. It’s got asomewhat-daunting amountof content, not all too dissimilar from other isometric RPGs. But if you’re looking for a console RPG to eat up your time, you could probably do worse. Impressions of the PC versionseem mostly positive, and there’s even more on the way with the Midnight Isles DLC.
Owlcat, meanwhile, is also forging on to a new franchise. Last month’sWarhammerSkulls festival showcase confirmed that Owlcat is creating aWarhammer 40KCRPG,Warhammer 40,000: Rogue Trader.
