Whimsical wish for a computer game of RotRL...


Rise of the Runelords


1 person marked this as a favorite.

I've been playing some old RPG computer games lately (Baldur's Gate and Temple of Elemental Evil) and got to thinking - I really prefer the Pathfinder rules now over AD&D and D&D... and would love to see Paizo put out a top-down party-based computer RPG sometime. And of all the APs out there, I have to admit that RotRL is perhaps Paizo's best (though I will admit, thoughts of a Reign of Winter RPG computer game also sends a cold delightful chill down my spine).

I don't suppose Paizo actually is working with any computer game companies on a Pathfinder-based game. Not an MMORPG or the like, but something for single-players who enjoy the old modules and the like.

Paizo has a license with Obsidian(?) or whomever did the Pillars of Eternity game. They're working on a digital adaptation of the card game before moving on to some other Pathfinder-related project.

In other words, it sounds like something is coming, so you could get your wish.

I dream of an XCom-like game, based in Pathfinder. The engine is already built, all that needs to be done, is fitting the world into it.


Neverwinter Nights might work. Work to create a basic goblin skirmish at the festival.

What Skeld said. From what all of their press releases have said, the PACG app is only the first of the releases they're working on with Obsidian. I would be very surprised if a Baldur's Gate style CRPG set in Golarion isn't next on the list.
