Please no Sharkmen expansion. I can deal with Dwarves and emo elves, just not the Sharkmen.

 

[Mazisky]

Vailan cities as main setting and marittime theme. 90%

(or i am wrong and it will be full lava world with only white folks)

Hell yeah!!! Choplifter HD 2!!!

 

[IHaveHugeNick]

Deadfire Archipelago must be it. Well, if nothing else, it's certainly not a generic setting like Dyrwood was.

 

[Rev]

inb4 Obsidian pulls an inXile move and announces PoE2, now also coming to consoles, with cooldowns Dragon Age-style, no friendly fire, third person view and a maximum party of four PCs.

 

[Fry]

Nah. I've detected zero interest in putting Pillars on console from Sawyer.

 

[Rev]

Yeah, I was only joking. In fact I agree with you, and I'm also pretty hyped to see what will come out of this. TWM had several improves over the base game, if they keep that trend going PoE2 should be pretty good.

 

[IHaveHugeNick]

TWM fixed a lot of things that went bad with vanilla PoE. As long as they continue in that direction, and use actually interesting setting for a change, I'm cautiously optimistic.

Pirate treasure, sea monsters, island inns full of hookers, plus it will probably heavily feature Ondra, who I'd say was one of the more interesting gods.

 

[Sentinel]

Most of the shit I heard from Sawyer made me vomit a bit in my mouth and lose all hope.
When Eric left that was the nail in the coffin, I thought.

Yet I cannot help but feel very excited. Even though I just know it will be incredibly disappointing in the writing department.

Help.

 

[Sensuki]

Said it before but I totally expect a ship as the Stronghold

 

[aweigh]

I'm getting a feeling...

a rather Sozzie feeling. BRING ON THE SOZ!!!!

 

[Killzig]

I don't care about PoE2, show me the TB thing you're working on.

 

[Rev]

I don't care about PoE2, show me the TB thing you're working on.

The TB thing is Sawyer's pet project of doing a historical rpg, but it won't happen before PoE2 anyway.

 

[IHaveHugeNick]

Wonder If they'll be going to Fig or Kickstarter.

Monster hunting.

Combat-focused dungeon crawler.

Isn't.

Wonder If they'll be going to Fig or Kickstarter.

KS would probably be more profitable, but seeing as Feargus is on Fig's advisory board, I'd say it's the more likely crowdfunding platform.

you're right those 800 humans I fought without any relevant story or character progression before giving up was just my imagination.

 

[United Nations]

Pillars 2 will hopefully have the MEGA appeal of BGII.

 

[Roguey]

you're right those 800 humans I fought without any relevant story or character progression before giving up was just my imagination.

I've seen Tyranny kill counters, 800 is literally double what it actually has. You might as well call Torment a combat-focused dungeon crawler.

obvious hyperbole.
