Custom companions are in. If you don't like the story companions, you'll be allowed to create your own followers. No personal stories or banter, but otherwise yours to control.
Beta build also arriving later this month.

Wow, they're still doing stretch goals New one's been unlocked: New race: Dear Pathfinders,
When our Kickstarter campaign ended, we promised that all funds generated by pre-orders and pledge upgrades on owlcatgames.com/preorder would go towards unlocking new stretchgoals. And we are happy to announce that the next milestone, a crowdfunding sum of over $1 million, has been reached thanks to your generous help and support! Thank you so much for believing in us!
Our exact crowdfunding sum is now at $1.026.681
This means that we now have the resources to add one more playable race to Pathfinder: Kingmaker. And you get to help us decide which race it's going to be! We have opened a poll on our forums, where all backers get to vote for one of three possible new races. The three options are as follows:
1. Aasimar 2. Dhampir 3. Elemental*
*Humans, whose family trees include elemental beings. If elementals win the vote, we will add playable Sylphs, Undines, Ifrits and Oreads.
You can vote right now by visiting this thread on our dev forums:
owlcatgames.com/forums/showthread.php?4221-The-Extra-Race-Poll
Please note - you can only see this thread if you have transferred your Kickstarter pledge to our backer portal or if you are a preorder backer. If you need help transferring your pledge, send a message to team@owlcatgames.com
Thank you once again for making this possible! And who knows - perhaps we can even reach the next milestone of $1.1 million and unlock a new playable class - Hellknights.
They are intimidation, relentlessness, and unwavering conviction. They are the black-gauntleted fist of absolute order. They are the Hellknights! Provide your character with even more options to choose from, including unique abilities and items for the Hellknights, as well as the quest line dedicated to the their presence in the Stolen Lands. Face them on the field of battle or fight by their side - the choice is yours to make.Edit: Honestly I'm having a hard time picking a race to vote for...

All the races seem a bit well... predictable? Cliché? Though I think Dhampir has to be the worst. I mean half vampire? Really? It's kind of an oxymoron if you think about for to long. Still might be fun.

Still might be fun. Eh, it's really not new. Alucard, Blade, Magiere, the concept is nothing new. In fact, it's got its roots in Eastern European legend. Interestingly, looking at the Pathfinder SRD, dhampir aren't as superheroic as all that. Thy get no strength bonus, and a constitution penalty They instead get a bonus to Dexterity and Charisma (they are nimble and seductive, but not very tough) Their big bonus is having sharp senses (both low light and darkvision) and a certain resistance to the energy drain attacks of your more powerful undead. The tradeoff is a strong sensitivity to sunlight (or other bright lights) and having cure and harm spells flipped for them. They take damage from healing spells and gain hit points from Inflict Wounds spells. www.d20pfsrd.com/races/other-races/featured-races/arg-dhampir The half-living children of vampires birthed by human females, dhampirs are progenies of both horror and tragedy. The circumstances of a dhampir’s conception are often called into question but scarcely understood, as few mortal mothers survive the childbirth. Those who do often abandon their monstrous children and refuse to speak of the matter. While some speculate that dhampirs result when mortal women couple with vampires, others claim that they form when a pregnant woman suffers a vampire bite. Some particularly zealous scholars even contest dhampirs’ status as a unique race, instead viewing them as humans suffering from an unholy affliction. Indeed, this hypothesis is strengthened by dhampirs’ seeming inability to reproduce, their offspring inevitably humans (usually sorcerers with the undead bloodline).

Still might be fun. It's actually the only race that has intriguing potential for backstory and character interaction compared to the other choices for the game. I'd vote for it.

New update:
Lore dump for Golarion (the setting for Pathfinder)
Also, looks like game will be feature-locked this week. Hell Knights didn't make it in, but putting them in dlc has not been ruled out.

I just heard about this game right now. I've heard of the Pathfinder tabletop rpg, but did not know they were turning it into a crpg. On top of that my favorite writer is leading the project, Chris Avellone. I eagerly look forward to this game.

I must say that I've actually been interested in this game for quite a while. Sadly, it doesn't seem to be on many peoples' radars. I wish it did get more attention. Hopefully, word of mouth will help propel this game get more attention after release.
I feel like I must weigh in on Chris Avellone. I don't like him. Especially after he dissed on Obsidian without any proof for what he was saying. The whole thing with Obsidian is very much a "he said, she said." That said, if he can deliver a good enough story for the game, then I won't complain. So be it. I still need my RPG fix and that Pathfinder: Kingmaker is a game that I think will deliver.

Avellone is an old school personality though, its not surprising he would be very scornful in regards to his comments. He has a very set way of doing things much like the Fargo's and Walter's and other big personalities. If anything this is part for the course. I like the Adventure Path this is set in, makes a good game setting, I am curious as to how they will handle things as an isometric.

Yes, it's based on the Kingmaker Adventure Path: Stolen Land Rivers Run Red The Varnhold Vanishing Blood for Blood War of the River Kings Sound of a Thousand Screams Modified for a SP experience and for being a cRPG rather than a tabletop, of course.

On top of that my favorite writer is leading the project, Chris Avellone. I eagerly look forward to this game. I'm... disappointed hearing this. One of the things I didn't like about the "3rd Edition Era" (3E/3.5/Pathfinder) was that it was trending towards being a programming manual - culminating in 4E being (in my opinion) downright pre-programmed. I know they expand their revenue base by having a foot in both the tabletop and CRPG arenas, but I feel they should be separate, catering to a distinct market, having shared lore, rather than enforcing the strictures of one onto the other.
I'm not saying the earlier editions were objectively better (after all, the question after "Hey, can I join your group" was usually "what're your house rules?"), but the tone of those editions wasn't the computer-centric focus of the latter ones.

Been watching bits of YouTube videos. I’m not getting the feeling this will be as good as divinity original sin 2? And yet I would say pathfinder has better lore? I’m a fan of pathfinder so I’m in a wait and see mode as I will probably only play 1

If this sells really well, I wouldn't mind seeing them do a proper Starfinder game down the line. I was just asking someone about that game. What's your opinion on it? Mixed, though more positive than negative. Mechanics-wise it seems like a logical extension of Pathfinder rules, with some trimming of the fat in places. Lore-wise I like the Space Opera feel to the setting, and the sheer amount of playable species really helps diversify the universe. Personally, I could do without direct Pathfinder races like Dwarves and Elves making an appearance, but seeing as how closely the two games are related I can't really fault Pizo too much for that.
