Then I'll give it a try, I hated Kingmaker and almost all the companions but I did like the character creation, map interaction and rule implementation.
this mod lets you edit savegames and replace portraits for all NPCs and companions with custom art. Replacement affects splash screens.
If you hate their dialogue and voices, you can use this same mod to edit your cash and purchase a roster of companions you get to customize yourself.
That seems very sad, but I do understand somewhat and the early stuff is considerably better in Pathfinder.
On a different note, I'm currently trying to DM the Age of Worms adventure path. I've not DMd before but new players are easy to impress :)
Is this the continuation of Pathfinder: kingmaker?
No, different storyline. Same general engine though it looks like.

Question: 'Rule implementation' - did you try it turn based or real time? real time sucked in that game, but turn based is very good imo.
Consider looking at it again and using mods for companions.

I'm going to wait for of "those" mods, if you get my drift. Kingmaker's launch was rough and I doubt the devs have gotten any better at bug shooting.
What mods? Link?
I was thinking of playing Kingmaker after revently watching Mandalore review it.
It takes place in the same universe, but it's not a sequel, much like Icewind Dale and Neverwinter Nights.
