The bandits retaliate at Oleg's Trading Post as expected, but we're ready like a ready thing. What's the haps, Happs? A safe night's rest, a strange fog, a dreamy nymph, our first round of obligatory companion chats, and then it's off to hunt the Stag Lord! An odd stranger offers us guidance.

Let’s Play Pathfinder: Kingmaker Beta #4 – Oleg’s Trading Post
We find Oleg's Trading Post with the Stag Lord's thugs already there giving Oleg and his sweet dove Svetlana a hard time... so we smack them around like the brutal heroes we are. Preparations for the inevitable retaliation (cue "A-Team" theme). First round of leveling up.
Let’s Play Pathfinder: Kingmaker Beta #3
The battle against the assassins in Swordlord Aldori's fortress concludes. Suspicion is cast on us despite our heroic efforts (basically, Tartuccio's a big fat jerkface). The companions choose teams. World travel map, an ambush, and the resting system.
Let’s Play Pathfinder: Kingmaker Beta #2
BETRAYAL IN THE NIGHT after being given a quest to claim your own country! Opening battle and introduction to your companions, including an overeager bard, a cleric who needs a pep talk, a barbarian who fits the mold, and an undead elf with a scythe (plus, let's be honest, the sorcerer Tartuccio is almost certainly ...
Let’s Play Pathfinder: Kingmaker Beta #1
Updated character creation in the Beta version. Pretty nice stuff! Shane recreates his Magus from the Alpha knowing better how the class works now. NOTE: This video is character creation only. Next video starts gameplay.
Let’s Play Sword Coast Legends Story Mode #49
[Note: I was using different screen capture software than normal so this video has some black around the main game screen] Finally, the creepy confrontation with Rhylfang in her lair! She's a big, mean, eight-legged fighting machine with lots of kids to come help momma. Brannor and Larather level up. A captive asks us for help ...
Let’s Play Pathfinder: Kingmaker Alpha #5
The Old Sycamore dungeon branches out (see what I did there). Giant centipedes. The mite queen hates kobolds just a mite. Fun with resting. Shane wastes a lesser restoration potion. We see a bit of the behind the scenes of what the game dev engine / art assets process looks like for designers (literally).

Let’s Play Torment: Tides of Numenera #24
The Valley of Dead Heroes continues as the Phoenix rises (sort of), we learn about a tantalizing new metal from a forgetful trader, buy some sweet loot, and finally enter the Necropolis only to interrupt some... aggressive negotiations. Torment: Tides of Numenera is the thematic successor to Planescape: Torment, one of ...
Let’s Play Pathfinder: Kingmaker Alpha #4
We finish the Ancient Tomb and follow Tartuccio's trail to the Old Sycamore. Kobolds and mites don't like each other. Will-o'-wisps are kind of tough (no wonder, they're CR 6 and my party is level 2). Thylacines aren't (no wonder, they're CR 1/2).
