I'm about 160 hours into Pathfinder: Kingmaker and I can't say for certain if it's a good game or not. It's certainly captured my obsessive attention, and there are parts of it that I really enjoy. However, the game is also frustrating and messy and the two halves of CRPG on one side and kingdom management sim on the other really don't mesh well. It's also a complete nightmare for any completionist with the huge amount of timed quests, many of which never announce their timer publicly. The encounter design also doesn't feel great and the difficulty is often unfun - though there are some menu settings that can mitigate some of that.
The writing also feels very hit-and-miss.
