Eternity Pillars of Eternity II Beta Thread [GAME RELEASED, GO TO NEW THREAD]

[Infinitron]

lol don't watch. Who knows when Josh will actually appear. Could be hours.

 

[Roguey]

With regard to consumables, the only remaining grognard at Obsidian no doubt means well but since they've already chucked out the illusion of strategic resource management, they might as well go whole hog. Just forget it.

By the way, I only just now noticed that this thing is 45 gb, so it turned out that it wasn't mechanics nor writing nor even Absurdian drama that put me off, but the fact that it's somehow even larger than Witcher 3 with all the expansions. Oh well.

 

[Major_Blackhart]

So what, did Obsidian lay off a huge number of schmucks?

 

[Parabalus]

Their videos are subscriber-only, can't even watch him tomorrow.

 

[Kem0sabe]

45gb? That's insane.

PoE2 is 45GB? u wot
source?

 

[FreeKaner]

It will be full voice acting and things about cool swords and magic or whatever. Do you really expect an in-depth interview?

Oh. Download size might be lower though. Storage after install is kinda whatever for me.

 

[Jezal_k23]

I can believe it. Pillars is like 30GB. The actual preload of Deadfire will probably be 25-30ish GB if I were to guess.

 

[The Wall]

It's live...and extremely cringe: https://www.twitch.tv/geekandsundry

DO NOT, I repeat DO NOT, click on that link that leads to the hell itself. Clicking on it is crossing event horizon. Your sanity lost, hope wanished and computer destroyed.

Typing this from psychiatrist's computer...

 

[Jezal_k23]

They are playing some game. Pfft. I thought there would be actual content in it.

 

[Sentinel]

wtf is happening in this stream

 

[SausageInYourFace]

I would hate myself so fucking much if I had to participate in that fucking bullishit for PR purposes. I'd go home and get so fucking smashed I wouldn't be able to work for two days.

 

[Sentinel]

Alright I watched it all.

You didn't miss anything. The questions were "how did you meet the CR people?" "where do you get inspiration for the music from?" tier of bad. There were only like 4 questions too.

 

[Jezal_k23]

Ok that was ridiculously irrelevant and boring. Not much of an interview. It was like 3 minutes of irrelevant questions and then 20 minutes of playing some game where they had to guess what word was written on a card. And then it ended. Incredible.

Barely anything was even said of Deadfire. They just mentioned that it was good in the final 30 seconds.

 

[FreeKaner]

So not even anything about full voice acting and cool swords.

Jesus Christ.

 

[Quillon]

heh they are still there.

 

[Krzysiek]

I watched it. I'm pathetic. :selfhate:

 

[FreeKaner]

What a fiasco. Fitting for today's events, the development of pillars of eternity and Obsidian as a company.

 

[Jezal_k23]

heh they are still there.

I feel bad for them. They'll have to endure that for who knows how long. Looks like talking about Deadfire is a low priority there.

 

[FreeKaner]

This is God's just punishment.

It's still painful to watch.

 

[Jezal_k23]

It's basically "look at our random videogames!" while Josh and Justin just stand there looking at them play it and talking about random stuff, occasionally giggling a little bit at one of their jokes.

Once every half an hour someone asks a question like "is Deadfire cool?" and Josh says "Yeah." and then they go back to their game while Josh and Justin go back to just standing there looking at it.
