    Game News Pillars of Eternity II Fig Update #40: Multiclassing Revisited

    2e... 3e... They should look at Shadow of the Demon Lord multiclassing. Now that game does multiclassing right. Hell, even 5e archetypes would be a better way to go as far a mc goes. Still, if it's between 2e and 3e mc, they made the right choice with 2e. 3e mc was a clusterfuck.

    Codex Review RPG Codex Retrospective Review: Pillars of Eternity Revisited

    Watchers Keep, sure. Durlags Tower...hmm, not so sure. Fun dungeon crawl but it didn't exactly blow my mind. Perhaps on par in my book. I would also state that BG2 is very compelling content wise when you are gathering cash and doing odd jobs in whatever order you wish. The content is far less...

    And the Codex loves PoE. The edgebabies lose.

    Tyranny + Bastard's Wound Expansion Thread

    Another fun game by Obsidian. Of course, the edge babies will continue to complain while simultaneously looking backwards through time with rose tinted glasses. But, who gives a shit about them?

    Eternity Pillars of Eternity + The White March Expansion Thread

    Yup, I was one of those folks. Being a pauper is cool early on but by the end I think it's fine to be a rich bastard who freely pisses away gold.

    Preview Tyranny GDC 2016 Previews

    I bet it was MCA's love of Chronotrigger that inspired those combo moves.

    Company News Paradox and Obsidian to announce something evil on March 15th

    It might be cool if they do a party based rpg with a a plot hook similar to Necessary Evil or Accursed. In those the players basically make characters from villainous tropes that are thrust into the role of heroes.

    Eternity Pillars of Eternity + The White March Expansion Thread

    That Axe of the Blood God Interview was pretty great. He asked a series of meaty questions that required substantive answers. Good stuff.

    The sneak attack one looks ok but, ya, most are bad.

    Is Pillars of Eternity worth playing?

    Hehe, "written by Homer." Nice catch.

    Is Pillars of Eternity worth playing?

    The long comparisons in the Iliad are great. Fuck modern readers.

    Who cares? Just like real life, none of them want to have sex with you.

    KickStarter Stellar Tactics, a sandbox sci-fi RPG - now available on Early Access

    Plenty of good titles can be procedurally generated. I had tons of fun with Heroes of a Broken land.

    Party of Eternity

    I'm probably going with something like this... Moon Godlike Paladin with some 2 Hander (mgt, int, res) Hearth Orlan Chanter Main Character going Sword and Board (res, int, per - talking stats) Hearth Orlan Rogue with Tall Grass (dex, per, mgt) Wood Elf Ranger with a Bow (dex, per, mgt), not...

    Game News Colony Ship RPG Update #2: Design Goals, Mechanics

    Trying to figure out why I wouldn't want to pump Charisma in this system for every player character. More npcs means access to more content. Also a larger squad would generally be better at combat even if xp is split - especially since more access to gated content generally means more xp Would...
