Vuosi julkaisusta minkä kunniaksi pelin saa nyt -50% hintaan
Save 50% on Pathfinder: Kingmaker - Enhanced Edition on Steam
Twitch lähetystä oli eilen ja sen verran jatkosta tiedetään että hyvin luultavasti ennen vuoden loppua tulee ilmoitusta seuraavasta projektista (Pathfinder säännöillä oleva peli) ja nyt jo hetken ovat pelailleet kerran viikossa tapahtuvia P&P sessioita seuraavaa peliä varten (Adventure Path kuten Kingmakerkin on)
Tässä vielä hieman spekulaatiota sekä faktaa mitä tiedämme seuraavasta pelistä:
"
Pathfinder 2
* The sequel hasn't officially been announced yet but the anniversary Twitch Stream stated that an announcement was coming this year.
* Tabletop Tuesdays have resumed at Owlcat Studios on a new AP. Everyone is playing the same AP. Tabletop Tuesdays were originally part of Owlcat Studios' work on Kingmaker as a way to develop new content for the game organically and to familiarize the devs with the characters and feel of the game. Resuming them with a new AP seems like a major indicator that Pathfinder 2 is in the works.
* Owlcat hit certain milestones that triggered a Console Port by THC Nordic, this indicates that Kingmaker was a financial success and a new game is likely.
* Oleg (the studio head) referenced thinking about their new project
at Big Deal in a way that implied that there was in fact a new project.
* K0tarsis continually answers questions on stream about whether there will be a new game with "I can tell you that Owlcat is doing well, and when a Game company is doing well, they are making new games."
So what do we know about PF2?
* Paizo has spoken out to say that Owlcat (and any other developers) will not be forced to upgrade to Pathfinder 2nd edition rules and can keep putting out games using 1st edition rules if they wish. Given the massive cost in iteration of a new engine and the fact that the 2E rules don't even exist in a final form yet, the next game will likely be based off the same engine and rules as Kingmaker.
* What AP Owlcat is playing has not been disclosed, but since tabletop Tuesdays started back up in January, it is likely a fully published AP that was either finished or started before that date (i.e. Not Tyrant's grasp and probably not Return of the Runelords).
* Given the Owlcat thought process about the need for a "Hook" to differentiate from games coasting in on nostalgia appeal (the Kingdom Building was Kingmaker's), it is likely an AP with an overarching system in a similar vein to Kingmaker.
* Given Oleg's discussion of Kickstarter
at Big Deal, it is likely that there will be another Kickstarter. News about this will probably not break until after the forum's are reformatted and DLC3 is released.
* Given the issues that Owlcat had with physical Kickstarter rewards, it seems likely that Physical rewards for this next Kickstarter will be minimal.
* It took half a year to go from absolute nothing to a vertical slice in Kingmaker's dev cycle. And another half a year to go from there to Kickstarter readiness. And then around half a year to get from there to Alpha 1. and 10 months in alpha to get to Beta. and 2 months to go from Beta to Full game.
It seems likely, given that timeline, that we will get a Kickstarter this year.

Toki tässä nykyisessä riittää mehusteltavaa tämän vuoden tarpeisiin 
Mutta tässä on tosi kova potentiaali jatko-osan suhteen kun tiimi on oppinut paljon, launchi olisi varmasti bugittomampi ja pelin skaala ja teemat olisi todennäköisesti eeppisempiä ja näyttävämpiä.
