LOVED Rogue Trader, what next?
I fell into a Rogue Trader hole after finishing BG3, and it has honestly been such an unexpected delight. I loved it so much that I started painting Warhammer 40k miniatures on the side.
For me, Rogue Trader shines in the world-building, lore and choices. I thought all the little choices that pop up when you are scanning planets or just moving through the world felt very impactful. There were small things I made a snap decision on that randomly popped up again later in the game; I love that. I also find the combat mechanics to be very accessible; the buffs and debuffs took a little googling to understand, but nothing too complex. I think by about hour 20, everything started to feel much more fluid. Also, RT's RPG element is very immersive. You feel like a ruthless space lord! It is definitely a game that is more rewarding to play a morally dubious character or a merciless despot; I enjoyed leaning into both.
So, what is next after this? I feel like trying to tackle Wrath of Righteous, as it feels like the natural progression on a CRPG journey. I would most appreciate some suggestions. I have tried but failed to get into Divinity 2, I just can't get into but if you can convince it is worth slogging through the first few hours it would be a strong contender. I feel like i missing out on that one.
