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

[Salvo]

You guys are way too obsessed with shitting on things that have little to no influence on your lives.

That's why I like you

I just got to the end of Pallegina's quest, and... I can't believe they did it again. What I mean is that they literally took that pseudo-philosophical luddite nonsense from the WM2 ending dialogue (about technology and progress being bad and potentially dangerous) and made an even worse reprise of it. Ugh.

Whoever is responsible for all this crap should quit writing dialogue for video games and start a new life in a cave somewhere.

a tournament hosted by Galawain between three factions. The Seekers, the Slayers, and the Survivors.

The PoE anime we never knew we wanted.

 

[Mortmal]

split a thread to create a new one that already has like 45 pages to give an impression that the dlc and the game is anything from the DUMPSTERFIRE it is

infinitron is transparent as fuck

He better do, the dlc isn't even showing on first page of steam top sales, the only thing to do is consolidate the threads like a farmer pump up the cow with hormones and meds for it to look healthy enough during the show.

i was googling "western rpg franchise versus final fantasy" in order to make a new trolling thread with the title of

"is there any western rpg that has a better story than ff7" (or a variation thereof)

anyway during the search stumbled upon some truly goldmine IGN forum threads "debating" the merits of wrpgs vs jrpgs.

 

[Sentinel]

honestly the ff7 story is overrated as fuck. whole game is
i much preferred ff9

 

[Safav Hamon]

Okay, serious question. Is this the most beautiful 2D game ever made?

Spoiler

 

[IHaveHugeNick]

Well I played around with it a bit, just reached the Rymgrand realm. So far it's pretty good. Art and environments are gorgeous. Seems like there is some new music that actually doesn't suck for a change. I hated the very idea to have more woo-woo content but the premise is actually cool and might just be the very first god related content in the Pillars franchise that isn't shit.

Every unique environment art I've seen is absolutely gorgeous. I would say if not, it's gotta be pretty close.

 

[aweigh]

completely different art style, but I think overall STASIS (an isometric 2d adventure/horror game) easily wins over PoE.

 

[Safav Hamon]

That does look good, but none of those screens are as highly detailed

Spoiler

 

[Jinn]

Keep an eye out for Beautiful Desolation, from the creators of Stasis. That will definitely be giving PoE II a run for its money in the aesthetics department.

 

[Safav Hamon]

We've come a long way since this

could link a smaller pic pls

Are you saying that FF games have some kind of story? I though that they were all about grinding,random encounters and tedious combat.

You forgot about 11 hours of Michael Bay quality animation

Ranting about JRPGs vs WRPGs. Not mention any rpgs at all.

So what do you people think about Waidwen retcon. Cause I'm beginning to think Eothas is kinda a retard.

Spoiler

Eothas allowed Waidwen to get exploded cause atheism.

So Eothas wanted peoples to prove they don't need gods and expose engwithians.... and people proved it by using help from Magran / Woedica to explode him

Then in the end of Deadfire he wants to see ingenuity of the kith... and most options revolve around making some another god watching over and guiding everyone

The god of new era, which kinda makes next era same as it was.

At this point I don't understand the themes at all, especially since all next DLCs will focus on gods too.

 

[Darth Roxor]

I'm beginning to think

your first mistake

 

[Shadenuat]

Oh you.

LoL this games is soooo dead,in a year time it will be like numanuma with 50 dudes playing it. I was curious if the dlc will sell a few copies but it seems that it is dead. I was expecting at least 5000 peak.

Here is the steam chart and it is pretty dire,for comparison the game had around 1700-1800 people 24 hours peak. It seems that the dlc is selling pretty poorly.
