How did they explode in terms of employees, number of projects etc SO FAST?
None of their games are best sellers, they are moderately successful but that's about it.

>>713434348 (OP)
None of their games are AAAA projects with ridiculous marketing campaigns so they don't need to sell 10 gorillon copies to finally see some profit.

they're the only somewhat large employer for people with those skills in their region and they don't have to pay them much.

>>713434348 (OP)
I think it's a lot of outsourcing. You have to wonder what's considered "employee" in 2025.

It would be a dream if Owlcat new games flop so they never go triple AAA and they go back to making Pathfinder 3.
But it is impossible since 40kslop fans will consume anything with a GW tag on it. And boomers will buy that garbage expanse game that literally no one heard about.
It is sad.

Your tranny fantasies are not real
Rogue Trader sold more than Wrath of the Righteous
40k won, Pathfinder lost

>>713434348 (OP)
Probably because their games are buggy as shit and they don't bother with any quality control.
The fact that I still find so many bugs in their pathfinder games that have been getting patches for a decade is amazing.
From crashes to enemy ai freezing up to flags not triggering; it's got it all.

>>713434348 (OP)
Easy, they always produce games for established brands and their debut had sovl. Shit games and Arab Russian laundering machine. They went x10 in no times employee wise, but lack the capability larian has. Don't forget, they announced 4 games, while larian announced 2 games.

>>713435412
You pathfinderschizos are something else.

>>713435534
I read a lot actually since I'm a ttrpg habitual. And watch K-drama shows. But the expanse or whatever that is, it's not big at all I never heard of it until Owlcat announced that disappointment.
I'm sorry you felt targeted by my post, boomer.
>>713435637
What is your post trying to convey here? Pathfinder is a niche in it's own community.

>>713434348 (OP)
Because making a decent game without spending a billion dollars has become a major accomplishment in the game industry somehow. Also helps that they're working with known licensed properties, which gives their games free spotlight.

Started binging The Expanse since the announcement and I'm finished now. It's ok. Pretty woke with gays and stronk women everywhere but not as woke as Gayfinder so shouldn't be that bad I guess. The world is pretty cool but the characters are lame and the visual designs are basic

>>713436928

You do realize that studios can go bankrupt or not expand at all? Not saying owlcat did the impossible, but it's still outstanding. Their games are still shit.
9 years from flash to genshin is great, too. Ys is much older iirc and they didn't achieve that much, vanillaware, too. The later has at least some soul in their games.

>>713437593
Depends on what a company's focused on and how much money they've got.
If it's a filthy rich monopolist trying to promote their service, they just pay corrupt government officials (AKA all of them) and block the access to competitors. See: Youtube ban (they called it "slowdown due to servers going bad" lmfao) in the summer of 2023, in favor of barely functioning stillborn trash dumps like rutube and vkvideo.

That pathfinder is a dogshit setting that is in no way superior in quality to 40slop

>>713435412
I love the games but pathfinder as a setting sucks. the modules are woke slop and it is one of the main weaknesses. Rogue trader is on a another level when it comes to writting becouse of that.

>>713439719
i still like generic fantasy more than muh grim dark faghammer40k

>>713439827
Do you think generic fantasy and Warhammer 40k are in opposition or something? Competing for something? Why have you created this weird us vs. them thing in your head with those two things?

>>713440186

>>713440186
>Competing for something?
They're competing for Owlcat, he's mad because Owlcat abandoned his precious Slopfinder in favor of 40k (and fantasy in favor of sci-fi, because they're developing two sci-fi games)

>>713439763
>the modules are woke slop
I stopped reading there. Find a better argument.
You can't just say you love the Pathfinder games but hate Pathfinder modules which the games are based on.

afaik both the pathfinder games were basically entirely paid for by the kickstarter so all the sales after the fact got to be reinvested in the company.

>>713438148
I liked it. Book 2 is the one that's poorly adopted. A rushed messy war with no cool villains or heroes or memorable events, and zombies were lame as shit. And season 4 was lame because everything was way too predictable. Whereas the final war felt like the one year war from Gundam, the villain was cool and the evil faction was menacing. Maybe the ending was a bit too abrupt, but not bad necessarily.

They made a few good games and then went full retard like studios tend to do. Remember getting a game with 2 years? thats over? remember having interesting choices. Full voice acting will make sure that is over. Remember actually making spiritual successors to baldur's gate? That sure as fuck as over. Enjoy.

>>713443974
Break down your schizo babble, which games are good and which ones are bad in your schizoid opinion.

>>713444345
If you haven't seen what full voice acting does to game development then shut the fuck up and sit down. We have seen this scenario play out 4 times already so lower your voice faggot.

>>713441338
You can like the system but not the writing.

>>713444503
So you're upset about the game that you've seen 10 second of so far, am I getting this right

Dark Heresy will have the most reactivity so far, full VA and all. Can't wait.

>>713444584
full VA is the bane of RPGs. It always will be until it can be done with AI.

>It's only a trailer! Wait until we see more conent

Like I said none of this shit is new. The new characters look cookie cutter as shit. their other game isn't even a crpg. Voice acting will absolutely stifle their development. Now sit down shill.

>>713441807
I suppose you can.
>>713444524
I can agree with this. If there something you don't like you can always change it. That is what some of the groups I have played for in the ttrpg does. Still I don't think Pathfinder is as woke as people want to believe. You can look at what Wizards of the Coast is doing for better examples.

>>713445072
>Still I don't think Pathfinder is as woke as people want to believe
Oh yes, nothing woke about a mtf tranny lesbian married to a half-orc paladin (whose orc father wasn't evil)

>>713444707
kek the very fact you think owlcat has the budget and dev time of Larian studios then you are pretty much too retarded to continue replying too.

>>713445264
Why does it upset you that two people love each other and do it privately? I'm more concerned with the naked pride parades with children being exposed to that.

I've not finished a run with it but I liked what it was doing along the way with Terendelev. Nothing about the mod felt out of place at least.

>>713445978
>Nothing about the mod felt out of place at least.
That's high praise for a mod of that kind.
It's all too easy to make this kind of thing feel like bad faniction.

>>713445264
I don't disagree with you but I will at least concede this. At least they didn't go full retard with the tranny shit and actually had the character use magic to change. It's always insane to me when you get tranny shit in fantasy games when magic can easily change your gender.

>>713446281
The implications of a half-orc feminizing her bf to the point of magic genderbending is kinda funny

>>713445831
Trannies are disgusting, so are lesbos, combine the two and ewww
>>713446281
The only saving grace is that Owlcat at least kept it hidden until near the end of the game and needing to pass a high persuasion skill check, in the AP the very first thing you're told about Anevia is that he's a troon
On the other hand they have Irabeth literally pulling "you're human so you would never understand the kind of discrimination I suffered, no offense"

>>713445831
Pretty much because us having the live and let live mentality led to this. I actually believe in the slippery slope. I don't give much of a shit what someone else does privately as long as they aren't hurting anyone but now we being told its ok to give children hormones and roads are getting closed for these faggy ass parades. So here we are.

Crisis of faith when he discovers the real golden throne was in your voidship all along

>>713445880
I understand your point. But I think you’re overestimating the difficulty these days. Especially considering that Owlcat’s DLC schedules inherently mean they’ll be bringing people back for recording sessions for long, long after the base game and its plot has been finalized and released. Plus remote voice acting work is now much more of a thing. And for iteration on internal builds using AI for scratch VA is nothing unusual at this point. You’re correct that VA is an extra hurdle, but it’s more of a project management consideration than any sort of technical problem.

>>713446764
Won't do even half the numbers the goth girl did

>>713446653
The problem is that nobody stopped to say "hey giving hormones to children and gender affirming surgery is wrong" until it was too late. Too many so called moralist kept their arms crossed while all of this happened.
I agree with what you said. Live and let live is a good way to live. Not all homosexuals are bad people.

>>713447528
I am not totally shiting on full VA and the only way to see if it detacts from the game will be when it comes out so we will see then i suppose . I also agree that it will be a managing challenge more than a technicals one which is why i take and opposing stance, there is 0% chance of managing not fucking up, ever, no matter what


>And for iteration on internal builds using AI for scratch VA is nothing unusual at this point
As for this i am lukewarm on it. Not entirely opposed (or care that much about its existence) to it but Not entirely opposed to it (or care that much about its existence) but when done lasily or without much iteration its always bad

Pathfinder setting sucks after 2e tho. it used to be edgy Dnd back in the day but it is now competing with adnd/5e on how much faggotry it can shove in there TT game. if they are ever gonna touch pathfinder they better ignore 2e lore and just adapt the system.

They won't. They'll just be fully voice acted. Hell, if they could do it Disco Elysium than no CRPG is safe.

>>713449484
Disco Final Cut has full voice acting and that game is about as verbose as it comes. It just comes down to how Owlcat implements it. I’m willing to give them the initial benefit of the doubt that they are not EA.

who?

RT was mid in my opinion compared to KM and Wrath because i already played RT two times and both of them were horrendous (beta+release day) i don't know if they fix all the bugs and the loading issue but frankly i will wait 4 years until all the dlcs and bugs have been ironed out. the story also weak. it starts great but after act 2 i feel like the entire game is missing a act and the story starts rushing until the necron reveal. the combat was okay. i say it is worse in the buff department in RT because without buffing every combat you would die immediately and suffer injuries


thanks for reading my blogpost

>>713448827

>>713450086
>i already played RT two times and both of them were horrendous (beta+release day)
Kingmaker didn't even have a fucking EXE when it released

>>713449958
>>713449857

Yes because voice acting never played a fucking factor in game development for them. They added after creating the game also they were dumb enough to have their studio pulled out from under them so I don't think their decision making skills should be applied here.

>>713450086
I find myself more likely to go back to kingmaker and wrath as well. I don't have RT but I just found it a bit more lacking.

>>713450107
I can get something better than this
At least put effort in your slopa ranjeet

>>713450303

>>713450189
This is also why i am gonna wait. never played km release day but and neither wrath beta but had fun in Wrath release day which i will say was somehow less buggy for me than both games

>>713448921
Nah, i did with a homebrewed build.

>>713448231
It was also the only actual Wrath DLC.

>>713450671
That and pic related tho

>>713449279
I mean Pathfinder was always insanely "woke", it was just that a great deal of it was in that libertine Greenwood way like having Desna, Sarenrae and Shelyn be in a lesbian thrupple and Cayden Cailean may or may not have banged one or all of them at some point type shit.
2e completely destroyed any goodwill I had for the setting tho, I will give you that.

it was always fetish shit anon. it's a pretty open secret that trio are James Jacob waifus along with Nocticula, Shorshen, Arueshalae, that one girl and other i am forgetting the name off. ffs Pathfinder has a palace in the moon where succubus kidnap men, have sex until they get prego and spawn a alu-fiend and also fuck their alu-fiend spawn too

I feel the same way desu. I might hate Pathfinder setting but both pathfinder games story feels complete compared to RT. act 4 is rushed more than even BG3 act 3 or Wrath act 5

>can't because psyker is a origin and picking awakening feat makes you a shittier psyker than Heinrix and Idira.
why did they make psyker a origin instead of a class ffs

>>713453116
Being an origin only makes it overpowered because for all intent and purposes it means having three classes, lucky you though, they're making it a proper class in DH

>>713452228
Lesbian, non-romancable, or she's a psychopath. Pick.

>>713454070
There's no way they would get away from making her non-romancable... right?

>>713434348 (OP)
i think their dlc policy was pretty successful

>>713435412
idk man, i hope dark heresy at least succeeds

>>713434348 (OP)
by making good games

>>713452114
I prefer my wives to not steal away my first kid, stopping me from being their father so they can indoctrinate them into a cult that will ruin their life, just like it ruined their mother's

>>713454473
No le happy endings for you, warhammercuck

>>713449726
wenli...

>>713454414
Sir this is an owlcat thread, there are no good games here

Counterpoint, if you awaken as a Pyromancer all your bonus damage benefits from Flensing.

>>713454473
That's just how a love story in Warhammer ends tho. if you want a happy ending than play Pathfinder games

>>713454774
meant for
>>713453116

>>713454671
than what are you doing here and what's your favorite rpg

>>713454865
>if you want a happy ending than play Pathfinder games
made me chuckle

>>713454473
Deserved for thinking you could fix a brainwashed slave

we better fucking go ordo xenos, I want a fucking necron phaseblade

>>713454865
>Pathfinder
The one with Valerie not having kids with you, but she will have them with some random peasant?
The one with Arueshalae leaving and living somewhere else where you visit her? Because let me remind you that what you posted was only added three fucking years after release
The one with Camellia literally dumping your ass and never seeing her again?

>>713435412
How would your mother respond if she meets your demon GF?

>>713455140
I don't know, the game never shows you who the KC's mother is, and Arueshalae isn't a demon

>>713455140
KC mother is also a half-demon so delighted that his son isn't a fag

>>713455353
This is VERY GOOD AIsloppa

>>713455353
>KC mother
She's not your mother, you're just some random guy she shoved her son's soul into

>>713455085
>Valerie
worst girl of the game and most people romanced the devil girls anyway
>Arue
cope. it's still better than most wrath romances
>Camellia
i am a cam hater but the only reason she dumps you is because she loves you and doesn't want to kill you because of her mental illness

>>713455816
The only cope here is yours because you said Pathfinder had happy endings when that's clearly not the case

>>713451992
The Redhead has an ugly hairstyle though, surprised by an attractive ebony in this day an age though

>>713434348 (OP)
you fags tricked yourselves into thinking every game is a AAA kind of deal and that you need to have 1 gorillian sales just to break even, so now when you see a A/AA studio seeing success you literally cannot understand it

>>713455671
Its purposely left vague enough that the player may or may not be her real son, the soul replacing the original or you just being the host, its not meant to definitively be one or the other.
Unless you're going Legend.

>>713456007
>it's vague enough
>unless you go for the path that makes it clear that no, you're not him
He's not you, at best the soul influencing how you act doesn't change that

>>713456125
If you go that path you are already resisting the influence, thus already roleplaying as not her son

>>713456221
Nothing stops you from picking that path while fulfilling every secret ending requirement, you know, the ones where you act like her son

>>713456007
>Its purposely left vague enough
Except for the part where it's spelled out all she did was try and stitch her son's soul to some shmuck she kidnapped.

>>713455893
>wenduag ending isn't a happy ending
>galfrey romance ending isn't a happy ending
>Lann romance ending isn't a happy ending
>Arueshalae romance ending isn't a happy ending because it was added way later
I love how you ignored every other companions ending to prove a point. Now lets compared this to rt
>Cassia either becomes a fish or gets political married to someone else and have kids with him
>Jae runs off
>Kibbles sells your kids or bathe in virgin blood to stay young forever (heretic ending)
>Yrilet appears in your deathbed, appears sad and than fuck off for eternity

>>713455671
Well i think she is and should be proud her not-son made a trad wife out of a succubus and give her grandkids

>>713456554
>I love how you ignored every other companions ending to prove a point
Funny, you're doing the exact same thing
>Cassia either becomes a fish or gets political married to someone else and have kids with him
Those are two possible endings, but her true romance end however has her stay loyal to you, never marrying anyone else, and her mutations don't kill her
>>Jae runs off
She doesn't, she stays with you and you name your ship after her
>>Kibbles sells your kids
Kid, singular, and she doesn't sell him off, she simply takes him away to her cult, not knowing who is father (and I assume, mother) is
>or bathe in virgin blood to stay young forever (heretic ending)
So now getting an evil yandere wife is a bad thing?
>>Yrilet appears in your deathbed, appears sad and than fuck off for eternity
Yes, the only girl in the entire fucking game that actually has nothing but bad endings

>>713456805
>not knowing who is father (and I assume, mother) is
nta but how retarded is the ending that she can't recognize her own kid

>>713454414
Owlcat has never made anything above a 3/10 in quality

>>713456554
Honestly I am kinda sad that Kibbles didn't get a noblewoman ending. Have her take back her old name and try to reconnect with her family.

>>713456936
I mean that the kid doesn't know who his father is, and presumably he doesn't know that Kibellah is his biological mother either

>>713456941
Owlcat has made 3 games above that.

>>713457029
oh ok, I thought it was some retarded writing like Cam's ending

>>713457152
Nothing in Camellia's ending is retarded writing, other than her even living long enough to get an ending, of course. But that's not on the writers, that's on any player doing such a thing.

>>713455085
Camellia has a good ascension ending tho.

>>713457249
>I'm going to leave you so I don't kill you even though you are a mythic level millionaire in a setting where revives canonically happen
Is on same level as retardation as the drow dying in ending of BG2 to some poison

>>713457443
>leaves you because she's bored of how strong she is
uhhhh sure

>>713456537
If you play a long lived race then she literally kidnaps and experiments on you once you're an adult. A grown ass man, you're your on person, it's not vague at all, she just shoved in her son's soul inside you.

>>713436680
>>713437156
>watch out for the poopoopathfinderschizo
Every fucking thread on this board.

>>713438148
The first season was garbage so how the fuck did you make it past that?

>>713458675
where is that mentioned? i thought most of the info was kept vague so you can rp whatever you want. either be a clone, some poor sap she experimented on etc

>>713459904
Targona

>>713458675
why is there a pathfinder vs Rogue Trader in every thread nowadays? pretty sure it wasn't like this a year or two before

>>713460357
It's one or two obsessed autist
It's because they revealed dark heresy at the warhammer skulls event

>>713451798
Why not? The Arbites are really cool.
Or are you just upset because the character has dark skin?

>>713460357
I honestly don't know. this rivalry is stupid to begin with because most people who played RT also played and liked Pathfinder games too. i remember the early alpha and beta threads were filled with people making character comparison from both games

>>713460357
Because some "people" are bitter over Owlcat abandoning Pathfinder, as if they couldn't play literally any other fantasy CRPG

>>713461170
>Owlcat abandoning Pathfinder
You keep saying this but i have yet to see any confirmation. again show me where they said it. otherwise you are a liar and i hope you go blind and get hit by a truck.

>>713461471
>bunch of new projects
>none of them are Pathfinder
>in addition, Paizo wants all new PF games to be 2e aka dogshit
They are done with Pathfinder.

>>713461471
people think that any company that doesn't milk an IP constantly are abandoning that IP. god forbid Owlcat makes a few games between pathfinder releases

>>713461562
>no new game everytime=dead
This has to be the most retarded reasoning i've ever heard. so by your logic there will be no pillars of eternity, no divinity os game or even a bg4 because they haven't announced or teased a new game project. genuinely kill yourself so this thread quality can somewhat improve. we already have cuckfags, schizos, minimaxing autists, we don't need another retard who spread misinfo to the gullible idiots here

>>713461471
>You keep saying this
So do you, they're making four games, we already know two of them, none of them are Pathfinder, you're not getting Pathfinder any time soon

>>713461595
ikr. i keep hearing about this in every thread but all i have is someone in owlcat saying they have no projects for pathfinder rn
>>713462141
>So do you
what? all i am asking is too show me the confimation that no more PF games like you faggots keep spouting
>you're not getting Pathfinder any time soon
yes retard we already know that.

>>713460748
>Or are you just upset because the character has dark skin?
Do you really have to ask?

>>713454070
>non-romancable
please tell me they are not gonna do it again this time

>>713435567
Thing is, budge to marketing for big AAA projects can be 30-60% of total budget. It is not a joke nor an exaggeration to say that big publishers are extremely retarded and spend shitton of money on moderately effective because their focus is not to be a successful company, but to earn quick fast bucks for investors and CEOs.

They really want to be like Larian now and i think they will fail, instead of sticking to their niche of old school BG1/2 type games they try to transition into UE5 slop for retards but they do not have the budget or experience of larian so it will be shit.

>>713451104
Arue raped young Commander in the sweltering summer of 4701 AR

>>713464308
I often hear similar stuff from anons but when is it brought up in the game?

they are inadvertently based for writing women realistically, i.e. as all unaccountable, two-faced whores

i just want owlcat to continue making crpg kino like wotr and RT. i really don't even need full voice acting, i think it's fine as-is.

>>713464501
It isn't, because it's not in the game, but in the AP one of the possible traits your PC can have has Arueshalae saving you from a bunch of cultists when you were a kid

>>713464501
In the tabletop you can have a background that you were wondering around the worldwound as a kid and got rescued by Arueshalae.

People forget how absolutely poor slavs are. Subhuman cost nothing to make videogames.

>>713464045
>instead of sticking to their niche of old school BG1/2 type games
Look at their twitter announcements of Dark Heresy and The Expanse
One is way more popular than the other one, take a wild guess which one is which

>>713434348 (OP)
You contradict yourself.
Clearly their games were very successful since they were able to become a large company similar in size to Larian and Bethesda.

>>713465313
Their best selling game has sold 2 million
after 7 years
and most of that money isn't theirs, because they lost the rights to the game
They're absolutely nothing compared to Larian and Bethesda in terms of success, DOS2 alone is more popular than every Owlcat game, to say nothing of TES

>>713464045
Divinity 1 isn't good past the first chapter, and 2 as amazing as it is still flops in the end. It takes time and mistakes to grow.

>>713435412
>I wish they would stop making 40kslop so they could focus on MY particular brand of slop
lmao ok anon

>>713435412
This but unironically

>>713464045
>they really want to be like Larian now and i think they will fail, instead of sticking to their niche of old school BG1/2 type games
They are making Dark Heresy. They have already confimred that they will still make more traditional isometric style crpgs in the future.

>they do not have the budget or experience of larian
Larian was in the same position before BG3 you dumbfuck. They made moderately successful rpgs until they got big Tencent and WotC money to make BG3.
Now Owlcat is fucking huge. They are about as big as Larian is now when comparing amount of employees.

>>713465427
Owlcat not renewing the license to make Pathfinder games doesn't mean they miss out the money from sales. Paizo didn't fund the game.

>>713465802
>They made moderately successful rpgs
DOS2 has sold more than every Owlcat crpg combined

>>713465852
What? Paizo has nothing to do with it, it's their previous publisher that has the rights to the game

>>713466032
Oh, right. But they continued to work on it through 2021, I doubt the last few years of deep discounts were bringing in a significant amount.

>>713464858
It's just a catbox link with an image newfriend

Owlkek really just needs to get on with cooking up their own setting so they don't have to deal with Paizo SJWs or Games Workshop jews at all.

>>713468371
Kind of wish they'd take the 3.5e SRD and do a Solasta.
They could be the ones to finally make a true Neverwinter Nights successor.

>>713468371
Well they said all the games they're making are from existing IPs so it's not happenign any time soon
