‘Pathfinder: Wrath Of The Righteous’ Fixes Romance And Other Bugs In New Patch

A big new patch for Pathfinder: Wrath of the Righteous makes sure that the course of true love (or NPC romance) runs a whole lot smoother.

If you’ve been playing Pathfinder: Wrath of the Righteous, then you’re familiar with just how robust and exciting the game can be. It’s got more options to choose from than an entire edition’s worth of dragons who happen to be in dungeons. And you can craft a custom character, and launch your very own crusade against a horde of demons.

But you might have had trouble finding love.

Don’t feel bad. We’ve all been there. It comes down to it taking a combination of vulnerability and intense self-work to make sure that you are in a place to share your life with a partner.

Fortunately, romance in video games is a lot easier. You just have to hit the right threshold of romance points.

And now, Wrath of the Righteous has fixed one of the romance options, along with a number of other fixes that make the game run the way it’s supposed to.

No more worrying about the game getting stuck in Turn-Based mode (which happened to me a few times). There are plenty of tweaks/improvements/fixes to Crusade mode that ensure you’ll be having the time of your life.

A new patch 1.1.4d is here! We fixed an issue with Arueshalae’s romance ending, and hopefully a lot of Commanders will be much happier now; we’ve made some fixes to the way touch attack works in the turn-based mode, and also made it so that the negative effects will be displayed first on your characters’ portraits.
