    People News SHOCKER: Chris Avellone leaves Obsidian Entertainment

    Hey, Chris, if you're reading this, please be the lead of your own thing. I don't know how economically viable that is, but everyone wants you doing your own cool project, not just being a third wheel in seemingly all of them. :negative:

    People News SHOCKER: Chris Avellone leaves Obsidian Entertainment

    I'm glad I enjoy all kinds of RPG's and am not a stupid elitist retard over which side of the world they come from.

    People News SHOCKER: Chris Avellone leaves Obsidian Entertainment

    Is Chris Avellone gonna keep sprinkling in small amounts of his quality writing over every RPG that gets released in the next 10 years instead of leading on his own? Is he afraid of leadership? Is everyone else a moron that underestimates his writing? Does he have a dark secret that prevents him...

    Review RPG Codex Review: Pillars of Eternity - By Vault Dweller and the Spirit of Grunker

    Really? That's awesome. I went Stoic on her all the way through because her being pissed off at me and not knowing what to do without my help was highly entertaining. Only thing I liked about Pallegina.

    Review RPG Codex Review: Pillars of Eternity - By Vault Dweller and the Spirit of Grunker

    I eventually learned Torment's Reach but that was definitely not the ability I used the most. I went all the way with the one that made you attack faster. Torment's Reach was a very situational tool. Force of Anguish is also more important. Punch the big fucker that's annoying you far away from...

    Review RPG Codex Review: Pillars of Eternity - By Vault Dweller and the Spirit of Grunker

    I played as a Monk primarily, Cipher second, Bard third and Ranger fourth (when they buffed Rangers to not be complete shit) and had fun with all of them, not to mention managing my companions. The variety of PoE in classes is definitely a big strength of it compared to every other modern CRPG.

    Review RPG Codex Review: Pillars of Eternity - By Vault Dweller and the Spirit of Grunker

    Nah. PoE is better than Dragonfall and Wasteland 2, but all three of them are fairly good games that will hopefully be greatly surpassed in five years or so by new CRPG's coming out. The one I don't get people losing their shit over is Divinity: Original Sin, it's a pretty fun experience the...

    Review RPG Codex Review: Pillars of Eternity - By Vault Dweller and the Spirit of Grunker

    Jesus. Did Pillars of Eternity kill your parents? Get a grip. The only reason why I'd ever go to a Bethesda forum is to commit account kamikaze to call them all retards. If you were smarter you'd just call me an Obsidian drone or something, considering the game I'm defending right now is from...

    The game I like is just like Beethoven and the games you like are just like Justin Bieber. Behold my insurmountable wit in my striking analogies.

    Review RPG Codex Review: Pillars of Eternity - By Vault Dweller and the Spirit of Grunker

    If there's anything Pillars has, it's soul, both figuratively and literally :) Pillars has good quests, good music, good atmosphere and good combat. I can see the complains that the setting is a bit too generic, but it executes well on what it's going for. If it was released in 2003 by Troika...

    People News SHOCKER: Chris Avellone leaves Obsidian Entertainment

    This is pretty sad news, Chris Avellone did some great contributions to Obsidian, including Pillars. I just don't want his talent to be wasted. I'm sure he could be a really great addition to Fargo's team or as a lead of his own new studio. Just please, don't go to fucking Bethesda. They have...

    Eternity Pillars of Eternity + The White March Expansion Thread

    This looks really cool. Regarding those companion descriptions, I am still saddened that Chris Avellone left because he contributed with easily the best companion of the base game. Pillars of Eternity was an excellent game, but this expansion will be a new important test for them. I want to...
