REVIEW:
To be honest, I’ve been a fan of Pathfinder for quite some time, however sadly for me, the writing in this title felt sadly lacking. There wasn’t the excitement for me that the roleplay game brings to the table and all in, sadly felt that rather than improving on what has already been established that it was more of a cash in than something to further what is already there.
Add to this a plot that was fairly basic, didn’t have a whole lot going for it and sadly for me characters that were a little too predictable and all round I was disappointed.
