My bodyguard is an evil human male rogvagug cleric and I must say that his channel negative energy clears house fast.

Evil clerics suck ass. There's very few [Evil] spells and channel negative energy is dogshit compared to channel good, because you're not rolling with a full party of undead nor are you going to use it to deal damage (it's bad at it). Tabletop is a different story but let's not get into that. Asmo's domains are pretty sucky, sadly. I hope you at least chose crusader cleric or whatever martial-flavoured archetype is available in the vidya. Why not just play a battle mystery oracle instead?

I wouldn't waste a turn on channeling positive energy anyways, and negative one is useful for healing Jaethal because there are fuckall inflict wounds scrolls.

Channeling is dubious in combat, yeah. Even if you spec into it it's going to be a sub-par choice in terms of action economy. Channel positive is great for out of combat healing though. Saves you a lot of wands of clw. Good clerics can still cast inflict wounds, so it's still a question of what are you getting out of channel negative? The point hardly matters since it's working out for you, I just like to discuss optimization within pathfinder.

How do I into pathfinder?

I remember getting filtered by it, but I feel like I sort of just approached it like a typical modern CRPG and thus got my shit pushed in. I like playing big cool swordman that's "charismatic" aka decent at speech checks.

I just wanna have fun exploring cool fantasy world

>>715874129 (OP)
Yeah.
Either human or Aasimar. Usually human.
I might also play an oracle from time to time if I'm feeling daring, but Cleric really is the real deal.

>>715874129 (OP)
I love playing lawful evil but I felt so fucking scammed when I realized I lost all my possible councilors for trying to always choose lawful evil options

>>715882393
There's an entire archetype of martial builds dedicated to maxing out persuasion and using it to intimidate entire encounters into fleeing, maybe look up a build that makes use of Dazzling Display. Paladins are pretty good at it as they already make use of CHA as a secondary stat but you can do it with WIS-secondary subclasses like Monk or Instinctual Warrior, by using the background that turns persuasion into a WIS skill

>>715874129 (OP)
Kingmaker's interface is so much more pleasant to look at than Wrath of the Righteous.
It's fucked, if it isn't pleasant to look at I just can't play for long.

how is domain selection an ability? there was so much nonsense in these games

>>715886698
>how is domain selection an ability?
You mean the justification?
Think that the domains are representations of the different aspects of the god, so a god of healing and righteous war might have healing, good, renewal, strength, protection, and war domains.
A Cleric that's more about healing and being a good boy might choose two of healing, good, renewal and protection, while a Cleric that's more of a strike evil down where it stands might choose two of good, protection, strength, and war.
That kind of thing.
From a roleplaying perspective, that allows deities to have different groups of worshipers, either ranks within the same religious structure, or even separate bodies of worship that might even be at odds with one another, etc.
The real question is why domains don't play an even larger role in the Cleric's identity, mechanically speaking.
I think AD&D/D&D 2e worked like that with specialty priests and such.
Clerics in 3.pf are awesome, but they did get too broad what's with having full access to a whole ass spell list that's wholly divorced from their deity.

a mage named Gaige.

>>715887253
no I meant in a more literal sense. abilities should be things you can do, such as 'channel negative energy'. domain selection is a choice you have made, which will have granted you some abilities or spells

>>715885372
It's literally the same but with a different color
