Okay, so the new Pillars of Eternity Kickstarter update is actually just about the results of the physical disc poll from last week (the first option won by a large margin), plus some information on the game's Prima strategy guide. But I'd rather tell you about the profusion of Pillars of Eternity previews that appeared across the web today, a week after it was demonstrated at Paradox Interactive's PDXCon conference by Josh Sawyer.

The longest and most comprehensive English preview by far is the PCWorld one, which could actually serve as a fine introduction to the game for Infinity Engine fans who haven't followed any news about it. If that's too tl;dr for you, excerpts are available in GameBanshee's round-up post, and in our own Pillars of Eternity thread. But wait, that's not all! Obsidian also released a few new screenshots for this round of publicity:


There'll be more in a couple of weeks, when Pillars of Eternity is exhibited at PAX East. They're certainly going all-out with the publicity for this game. It'll be interesting to see how well it pays off.
