Arcane
He chose the right example though: PoE's systems are designed in such a way that dropping half of the character creation options won't have any effect on gameplay anyway.
but how much its sequel sells
Obsidian's successor to Pillars, Tyranny, by their own words, underperformed
Also, I looked at the Steam achievement statistics for Pillars of Eternity. According to those, fewer than half of players finished the first chapter. Only about 10% of players completed the game.
- PoE has a 10.4% completion rate
- Wasteland 2 has a 7.3% completion rate
- SR:HK has a 6.7% completion rate
- D:OS EE has a 5.3% completion rate
- Avadon has a 2.7% completion rate

because it's very likely not worth my time.
The problem with PoE character creation is identity politics. This game wants you to think like an SJW, sticking labels on people and lecturing about how they've been oppressed.
And there you have it, folks, having an option to choose your own race, gender, class and background in an RPG has officially become SJW pandering
Seriously, you guys are becoming just as bad as the wacko feminists - seeing patterns of male oppression and hidden leftist agendas everywhere :D

You might need to know that if PoE2 is wildly successful and they release a movie.
If it's not SJW pandering, name another reason why developers include so many character creation choices without consequences?
And I thought I had Alzhaimer from 24 onward.Oh dear. In true Vogelian fashion, Jeff starts out by plagiarizing Darth Roxor, but then becomes something far worse: http://jeff-vogel.blogspot.com/2017/06/games-have-too-many-words-case-study.html

Lack of budget/time/creativity to properly represent all those character-building choices in-game?
I mean, it's either that, or you believe that they created the Boreal Dwarves as a way to SJW pander to all the Inuits that are hankering to buy and play this game

More likel pandering to the kind of reviewers who ooh and aah over the incredibly socially conscious character creation loredumps, only play halfway through the first chapter, rate it 10/10 GOTY.
Or could it be that you're just seeing things that aren't there because you want to see them?
Did anyone really praise PoE's character creation for being fantasy inclusive?

uhhhh, let's search.... yup.
Avadon is difficult, especially when you do that first task and think the rest of combat would be as easy. But Divinity OS EE completion rate is rather strange, because it has actual graphic and stuff.PoE has a 10.4% completion rate
- Wasteland 2 has a 7.3% completion rate
- SR:HK has a 6.7% completion rate
- D:OS EE has a 5.3% completion rate
- Avadon has a 2.7% completion rate
How dumb does a game have to be to have a high completion percentage?
What I don't understand is why developers even give a fuck about these kind of statistics in the first place.
