Obsidian's Pillars of Eternity [BETA RELEASED, GO TO THE NEW THREAD]

[Mrowak]

A screenshot, a name for the game, a class *as* a big 3mil stretch goal. That's my guess.

Fix'd.

Yesterday I broke the arm of a player in Hoverdog's team of BloodBowl. He named her Jennifer Hepler. I also killed the so called Pete Hines, badly hurt David Gaider.

3 million stretch goal = scrap the current engine to make it 3D and make all the lines of dialog voice acted.

Update imminent? "The Guildmaster" is posting something the in the Obs announcement forum.

3M stretch goal: ban VotS

 

[Semper]

nah, he's just butthurt because P:E made 2.6mio (not counting paypal) with 5+ days left.

Almost there on the update. Darren wanted to read through one more time, since we had a couple text errors in our last one.

Still not thursday in Kwalifornia? It's almost friday here. I didn't know Obsidian shared the same time-space continuum as VD.

Is there any info about how's the paypal doing?

It's here!

So it's safely to assume, that they got Kickstarter pledges +50K $ whenever counting the money for stretch goal.

I am digging the screenshot I don't know if we'll reach 3.5 for the big city however

 

[Captain Shrek]

The screenshot looks beautiful even as a hard concept art. I am having second thoughts about re-funding. But I will wait till the last day.

Screenshot looks great.

Surf Solar just had a 2DGASM

Is it just me or does it seem like money is coming in pretty quickly again?

yeah, but what makes me worried is that there are only around 320 new backers... i know that they can gain tons of money if all the current backers up their pledge, but the peaks at the end are usually only because the project attracts thousands of new people. if P:E fails at that there won't be that much income in the final days.

The peaks at the end come because all the people who have been on the fence realize that the time is up and they have to make up their minds. A lot usually decide to pledge and so the money rises quickly.

Hello new Wallpaper

 

[Aeschylus]

That is surprisingly nice work on the screenshot for basically just a month's work. I was a little taken aback when I saw the scaled down version, but the full high-res one is quite beautiful. There's a few things about it I could nitpick, like that the proportions seems somehow vaguely off, but mostly I just want to see the larger area that that is a part of. Kudos to you Obsidian artists guys.

 

[FeelTheRads]

Looks good. More painterly than IE games, but it's good to have an original style. That is if they'll keep it like this.

 

[Vault Dweller]

IT'S GLORIOUS!

 

[Stabwound]

Holy fuck yes. That looks amazing. If that's a legitimate screenshot this is looking to be the best looking 2D game ever.

Two Athkathla-sized cities sounds too good to be true. I don't know if we will reach 3.5 millions though...
