CRPGs are probably my favorite genre in all of gaming, ever since the golden 90s with Baldur's Gate, Icewind Dale, Planescape: Torment, all their sequels. There was also Neverwinter Nights, which wasn't quite the same, with its more action-oriented focus, but still a fantastic game. BG3 was ace, and I really love the Pathfinder games. I played through Kingmaker alone three times, and finished Wrath of the Righteous. The latter is probably the best CRPG of the past decade for me, along with BG3. I'm really happy that the genre is making a comeback; there's way too much action-RPG drivel with endless animations and effects, button-mashing, and shallow writing.

Edit; Oh, and by the way, I'm an old TTRPG nerd since around 1993, I've played a multitude of TTRPGs in the years since. I'm still playing Pathfinder now and then.
