Pillars of Eternity Beta Discussion [GAME RELEASED, GO TO NEW THREAD]

[Sensuki]

Is it just me or do all male character models have really retarded square figures?

 

[ZagorTeNej]

Oh boy, waiting for this game is like sitting on a rollercoaster. I am optimistic and happy when I see the updates the devs posted about the beta, and get all when I read this thread about how they fucked up.

Well, keep in mind the game will get polished a lot more until release (whenever that turns out to be, I personally hope they postpone it to Q1 2015 atleast) which can make all difference in the world when it comes to gameplay and you'll also have (I hope) Sensuki modding it into a much more enjoyable experience.

On top of that, you'll have Obsidian stellar writing, C&C, nicely illustrated CYOA parts, interesting reputation system, great visuals, a possibly interesting setting (which can be taken in more wierd/unique directions in expansion/sequel) etc.

dwarves in particular.

 

[Sensuki]

haha apparently in the latest patch "Durance" was added to the companion list LOLZ

Is someone having a laugh? Pallegina and Durance.

 

[Chaotic_Heretic]

Palladin's Vagina I get.
But whats the deal with Durance?

Perhaps he's Rance but dumb.

[Bester]

So decided to try this new version that came out a few days ago.

Load save game doesn't work for me. Nice.

 

[Sensuki]

The save location was changed to a diff folder

 

[Semper]

Wasn't this supposed to happen? Health gets boosted to 4x and then stamina and health damage are equal.

nope, i don't think that this was intended. your companion's health bar looks like this 700/210, while the pc's is capped correctly.

 

[Sensuki]

It's a bug, but it's not present on normal difficulty. It's present on easy, hard and PotD.

enDURANCE

And I thought it was because of DUREX.

 

[Semper]

weird. i tested it on hard plus normal and thought that it was present in both difficulty levels. whatever, i hope the next build is ready soon.

 

[Sensuki]

Found Ray Muzyka's NPC .. familiar name anyone? Davaeorn.

 

[Grunker]

God, this game is pretty.

 

[Jedi Exile]

Instead of 'missing string' there should have been 'fuck you EA'.

God, this game is pretty.

But that UI though. Ugh.

Yep. There are beauty spots. But overall, I never expected the game to reach IE-quality in the painted graphics. Playing it aesthetically feels like IWD meets ToEE, which is not a bad thing. Those are pretty much my two favourite games of all time, graphically speaking. Well, I liked spell effects and such better in the BGs, but you know what I mean.

Productive day for me: 13 bug threads, some with multiple bugs each (particularly character art one) reported in one day, plus couple suggestion threads
