Pathfinder: Kingmaker Beginners Guide to Creating a Character

Ойындар

I hope this Beginners Guide is helpful to many people who find these kinds of games overwhelming!
Its a step by step rundown of creating a character in the game. Advanced players and players that are familiar with these kinds of games will probably not find any value here, but while we were playing through on my twitch channel last month, there were people who felt the game's stats played a part of overwhelming them.
I made this vid to help shed some light on those things and hopefully encourage new players to give it a chance as its not as scary as you might think!
I hope you enjoy it!

    It always breaks my hear listening to great guys such as you who are so enthusiastic about the game they are willing to do their best to bestow their knowledge on viewers like me. I grew up on Baldur's Gate 1 and 2.....and yeah.....what I see here scares me. Then again I feel it might be the old "just play the game, stop with the numbers and you will enjoy it" experience. Back when I was 10 basically did not even knew what D&D was and yet I managed to enjoy Baldur's Gate and Icewind Dale....and Planescape Torment (different story). Maybe I can enjoy this one with my old brain.

    Having played tons of Baldurs gate and Icewind dale really helps here :) Great video. About dying in the wiki they say "A character can survive some negative hit points, but if their amount becomes equal to their Constitution score, the character dies. To resurrect them, you will need a special spell.". If it is by hitpoints a higher level character would be much more unlikely to die.

    Equal to the constitution score means you'll die if you have as much negative HP as you have points in constitution. Say you got 16 constitution, you'll be able to go as far as -15 HP without fully dying.

    No, because a Paladin is likely to wear heavy armor which would erase any dex bonus you have any way. A dex Paladin might make a decent archer/part time healer/part time buffer. But imo as a full bab character they need to be on the front line.
