I played a bit of Pathfinder: Kingmaker. I think I'm nearing the end of the game.
- I've suddenly gotten some very powerful weapons from some of my craftspeople. Not everything - one guy keeps talking about a special weapon but hasn't delivered it, and another about some heavy armor and hasn't brought it. But it's been a noticeable increase.
- I maxed out my kingdom stats and my towns . . . all save one stat, which seems to get the chance to rank up very infrequently (Espionage, FWIW.)
- Events seem to be getting repetitive. I've solved the same problem months in a row, it feels like, and none of them really advance any plot.
- I only have one main quest left active, and one side quest. That side quest is looking like a "completionist" quest after I win the game.
So I'm kind of frittering away some time, waiting for a wave of bad stuff to come that I can solve and win the game.
It's still fun, but it's starting to feel like I've checked off all of the boxes and certain improvements, developments, and tasks have no real relevance to the game. Yet I still occasionally get jumped by bandits or masses of elementals.
When I eventually play it again, I think being Lawful is too damn useful . . . but I'll definitely go evil and see how that works out. Why not? Maybe I'll run a caster, although it's a simpler game as a fighter-type.
