There was no Pillars of Eternity II: Deadfire Fig update yesterday, and it doesn't look there's going to be one today either. There was however another Josh Sawyer Q&A stream, this time guest starring writer Carrie Patel. As you might expect, there were a lot of questions about narrative and about the recently revealed companion relationship system. I managed to get in a couple myself, but the most important revelation from the stream was that Obsidian have plans for an eighth companion. The helpful Fereed from Reddit has once again provided a transcript in case you don't want to watch it yourself.
Tomorrow looks like it's going to be a big day for Deadfire. According to Feargus in the comments section, Obsidian are planning to publish the Neketaka gameplay footage update, and judging by the current rate of funding, there's a good chance that'll coincide with the unlocking of the $2.8M orchestra, level cap and subclasses stretch goal, and perhaps the unveiling of a new stretch goal for that eighth companion. There's also a new leg of Fulvano's Voyage that needs to be properly announced, and possibly a campaign add-on that will allow Deadfire backers to buy Tyranny. Obsidian are also thinking about doing an expansion add-on like they did with the first game, but that won't be decided until next week.
