Game News Pillars of Eternity II Fig Update #48: What's Next - Upcoming Patches and Free DLC

[Lady_Error]

Considering that I cannot continue beyond the first island due to a bug, it's probably better to wait anyway for all the improvements and extra content.

The game freezes when loading the Engwithian Ruins arena. It's a pretty common bug and some were able to bypass it with the console, while for others it still doesn't work.

I think it'll be a really good game one year from now...

Probably not. But it might be playable.

Has the makings of a cult classic.

Better than the 1st. Just needs some bug fixing and adjustments to veteran/potd difficulty levels. Though Sawyer should be stoned at least a bit for all the "Ekera, Ac" etc. made up words the characters use.

Even 150,000 copies sold is nothing to sneeze at, considering that they are selling for $50-$75 a copy minus Valve's cut. And it's been less than a month and it hasn't hit consoles or released DLC yet. Sure, its not much compared to a Bioware/EA game, but it doesn't have to be- they are a much smaller company making somewhat niche games. If they wanted to sell a lot of copies, Pillars of Eternity 2 would have been a real-time made-for-console psuedo-rpg like Dragon Age 2/3. Nobody here should want that.

Did two playthroughs, better than Pillars 1 in every other aspects besides the difficulty. Release version had piss easy combat and reputation gains were bugged so that you got maxed out on them in a second. Latter issue has been fixed, didn't want to start a third run to see whether combat is challenging now or not. Will probably be a lot better once the dlc's have been released like the first game was. If you hated the first game don't bother, but I consider it the best game Obsidian has released after NV.
