    Eternity Pillars of Eternity 2: Deadfire + DLC Thread - now with turn-based combat!

    Broadly speaking, yes. He's said he's happy with how the faction stuff ended up, but is willing to cop to the central Eothas plot not being good. He's briefly talked about his aims which makes it easier to see what they were going for and where exactly it fell short

    The Forecaster doesn't really say anything supernatural at all: https://fallout.gamepedia.com/The_Forecaster%27s_dialogue A chick called Veronica hangs out twenty feet away from him, and the NCR and Legion are going to clash again over Vegas. Hardly Nostradamus

    Eternity Pillars of Eternity 2: Deadfire + DLC Thread - now with turn-based combat!

    I was making cool soulbound weapons with individual abilities for every level of every class and my PC crashed and I lost an ENTIRE weapon s' upgrades and no recovery options work. I have to start the full thing from scratch! Fuck! Maybe I should do soulbounds more like thje actual game, where...

    Eternity Avowed - Obsidian's first person action-RPG in the Pillars of Eternity setting - coming Fall 2024

    This wouldn't really make sense given the trailer; the flags show Woedica's broken crown which would have become her symbol some time after the gods' creation. The Aedyr empire is something like a thousand years old, so this could plausibly be set 100+ years prior to the Pillars games

    Eternity Avowed - Obsidian's first person action-RPG in the Pillars of Eternity setting - coming Fall 2024

    It's perfectly intelligible and reflects the setting. It's deranged to watch a one-minute teaser with a male narrator where the only visible faces belong to a statue of a man and a skeleton, and come away with the impression that it was a feminist trailer.

    Obsidian General Discussion Thread

    It's not exactly a cliffhanger, but the ending note is very much "the adventure will continue" and then of course it never did

    This is impressively deranged. Kudos.

    Eternity Avowed - Obsidian's first person action-RPG in the Pillars of Eternity setting - coming Fall 2024

    the retcon was in Beast Of Winter, and was cool. If Forgotten Sanctum had allowed you to prevent the Wheel from being destroyed then they'd have been accused of selling the "good ending" as DLC. Eothas being killed in the process does make the ending different to him succeeding in his goal and...

    Oh dear, a senior area designer worked on an MMO before... what if this is an MMO. Or a free to play Live Service game with seasons and microtransactions. They don't want to compete with Skyrim, they want to compete with Final Fantasy 14

    even around here people generally thought the Deadfire DLC (lead writer was a they/them communist) was better written than the main game (lead writer was a straight white cismale who is into European history). Talent knows no gender identity

    Eternity Avowed - Obsidian's first person action-RPG in the Pillars of Eternity setting - coming Fall 2024

    It's probably not as common as you might think for a five person party rather than a six person party to be a dealbreaker.

    Eternity Avowed - Obsidian's first person action-RPG in the Pillars of Eternity setting - coming Fall 2024

    The first trailer for Outer Worlds was nearly a year before the game came out, and that actually had some gameplay in it

    Eternity Avowed - Obsidian's first person action-RPG in the Pillars of Eternity setting - coming Fall 2024

    my guess is "is it ok to break an oath if by breaking it you advance the power of Woedica" ie if you were to weigh the two things on scales, would the oath or the crown weigh more symbolizing its greater value. "The monster we created" is the consequences of the empire breaking its oath by eg...

    doubt it, since in the setting Oathbinder is Woedica's title
