Hi and sorry if these questions sound dumb. I come from Warhammer 40K with a somewhat strict *what you see is what you get rule* and I know Pathfinder RPG is a totally different game. But when this WYSIWYG rule is ingrained into you after years of playing a certain game, naturally the first thing you want to know is, how other games handle this rule (if at all).

After a quick research, this is what I found out in case someone wants to use miniatures (which I want) instead of cardboard etc.:

1.) Unlicenced miniatures by Third party producers are totally fine to use. I do see lots of Pathfinder miniatures by Reaper but I also like other unlicenced stuff from Reaper. Could I get those and use as my character? Is there some sort of WYSIWYG rule?

2.) Base size is important in Pathfinder as this defines the creature size on the grid (aka the battlefield). Usually, standard characters are put on top of 1" (25mm) plastic bases, round or square, both work. Is this correct?

I feel like, I'm overthinking this and making things unnecessarily complicated.

In any case, thank you in advance!

Edit #1 Whoa, I didn't expect such wholesome replies! Thank you all! 😁

Edit#2 and the stories as to what people use as their pawns and characters, ranging from: bottle caps, chess figures, candy, My Little Pony toys or a piece of paper with something drawn on it...are soooo funny 😂

Hey there,

I'd like to get into Pathfinder and I thought, since I'm a visual learner, a videogame is perfect. Kingmaker has some mixed reviews and the time limits do scare me off. I thought Wrath of the Righteous (WotR) would be the perfect game to learn the world, lore and basic mechanics.

I'm planning to play WotR on my Xbox Series X and as I was browsing the store I noticed the game is on sale:

Base WotR 4.99€

Game of the Year WotR 12.49€

I'd like to know, without spoilers, whether the GOTY edition is actually worth it. How much more content do I get and is it meaningful addition to the base game?

Thanks very much in advance!

Hey,

as per title, while playing Witcher 3 on my Xbox Series X on graphics mode with Raytracing enabled, the console froze and crashed. Just half an hour ago, the console turned itself completely off. When turned on again, I received the message that the Xbox Series X overheated and turned itself off to prevent damage.

I took apart the Series X to look at the interiors for dust accumulation but there's none. This is also the first time ever the console overheated (never before did I receive the overheating message).

Is this issue tied to Witcher 3's Raytracing Mode or could it be my console? After a quick research, I noticed some reports from PS5 and Xbox users having similar issues but it could be anecdotal.

Thanks in advance!

Edit#1: Contacted Xbox support and yes, it is with a high probability due to the game or correctly the Raytracing graphical mode in Witcher 3. The combination of enabled Raytracing + longer play session + cutscenes makes it much more likely to hard shutdown the console because of incredible workload on console, as per Xbox support.
