There are so many options, it's overwhelming. This might be the most intimidating of the D&D type games I've played. (I adapted quickly with Baldur's Gate and Divinity Original Sin, but this might take longer).

The game is based on Pathfinder 1e. Whatever that means.

Anything I need to know or what to watch out for? I'm flyin blind here. I'm a little over an hour into it already.

Pathfinder 1e is basically DnD 3.5.

The game itself is (depending on your difficulty settings) a bit more "hardcore" in using the Pen and Paper rules than your usual D&D games are.

And Wrath of the righteous is pretty badass high fantasy from the very first minute. You won't go around as lvl 1 character, rescuing cats from trees and killing rats in the sewers.

Depending on your difficulty settings it's totally normal to be overwhelmed.

About stuff you should know? Just don't ignore sidequests, especially if they involve your (potential) side characters, and maybe think ahead what your character is supposed to be.

Find a role and stick to it.

Also:
Utility spells >>>>> damage spells, especially early game.

EDIT:
And don't be afraid to start anew.

You may want to take other "paths" sooner or later anyways.
