is pillars of eternity going to be another kickstarter hit ?

i hate just about every aspect of this game. the writting is well done, but the actual story is just MEH in the extreme. the combat is completely horrible. the characters are neither varied nor likable.... and dont get me started on the art style. i know they were going for an old school look.... but ugh. there is just no artistry in the environments. they are all very stale, simple designs.

Where is the review? I am tired reloading the main page :P

Loving the old-school RPG resurgence. I've sunk my teeth into Wasteland 2 and am loving it. Will play this after. Graphics ain't everything that's for sure.

What day is this? I... I... Haven't seen the light in so long...

I kid, I kid, but I have already put 26 hours into it since Thursday, so yeah I'm enjoying it. Way better than D:OS in my opinion.

I'm trolled.

Picked this up on GoG and played a couple hours. Its not grabbing me like Wasteland 2 yet but I'm sure I'll get sucked in once I get a better understanding of the various systems. Really digging the writing and the visual style, the water in particular looks awesome.

Should have time to dive in properly this weekend.

im sorry that you feel trolled? its an honest opinion. perhaps you should reevaluate the fact that you feel that an opinion contrary to yours is just "trolling"...

i was super hyped for pillars of eternity. the game ended up being garbage in my opinion. thats great that it is getting so many good reviews.... for me, the game is a massive disappointment. it did not recreate the feeling of BG or BG2 for me at all... and i regularly go back and play those games, so i know what PoE should have felt like.

the biggest miss for me was the story. it just isnt good. like i said, the writing is well done... but the actual story here is bush league. they just dont make stories like they used to i guess.

~90hrs and loving it. hoping expansions are in the works.

expansions, not armor\weapon DLC for $20.
