Next time though, I still want weird fantasy or science fiction.
Well, I guess that's what we'll get when Torment hits. Either of those or both, both I guess with the lines blurring between the two.

May well not have the time for quite awhile to seriously play it, but I definitely like looking through the PDFs and stuff! And anyone know what's up with the strategy guide and getting an access code for the digital version with the physical one?

Beat the shit out of yourself in the washroom and then ask to be excused from work claiming to be a mugging victim, its worth it I assure you.

It is funny to think now that I kickstarted the Project Eternity and then I ended up working on it. Life is completely unpredictable. Anyway, I can confess now that I worked on Pillars of Eternity as Localisation Test Lead. So if you are playing Pillars of Eternity in French, Italian, German, Spanish, Polish and Russian language, you can hate me ;)

Congrats to you and the Team at Obsidian, it looks like critics and fans alike really like this game. I'm sure I will too, once I get to play it! Damn work!

Anyone able here to stream this game using Steam In-House Streaming? I get a cut off image no matter what settings I try. It's also in 4:3.

Whoever rolled a Cipher, how are you finding it so far?

I'm really liking it so far. I tend to gravitate towards spellsword-esque classes/builds, and this seems perfect for that. I got draining soul whip when I leveled so I can cast spells more often, pretty effective.
 
I only have the Kickstarter Hero Edition, but on Steam, it shows I also have access to the Making of documentary. Is this intended? If so, great. Because I care about the "making of" stuff. The folder currently only shows a text file saying "The documentary is still in production. When the documentary is finished and released this is where it will appear."

When I used Hobbling Strike on my rogue, which is supposed to be 2 per encounter, for some reason it is using both uses. Is it because of dual wielding, or is it a bug?

Thanks, but Obsidian and translators should take all the praise. I was only the contractor who were trying to help them make the best possible localization :)

Bug, dual wielding shouldn't drain both, it should be applied to both strikes but not use up both uses.

Then you must know this: where can I send suggestions for translation fixes? Spanish in this case.

I spent an hour flip-flopping on if I wanted to make a Monk or a Cipher. Said screw it, and ended up rolling a Death Godlike Bleakwalker Paladin.

He's a blast so far.

The flight plan I just filed with the agency list me, my men, Dr. Pavel here. But only one of you!
Stat question for folks:

Are summons/pets affected by the summoning character's stats in a logical way? Like, does higher might on a chanter increase the damage that his summon invocations do?
 
Next time though, I still want weird fantasy or science fiction.
Reading the lore book, I kinda wish Avellone had been allowed to run wild with this one. The balance seems to be about 80% traditional fantasy with 20% weird Victorian soulscience stuff creeping in at the edges. It could have been flipped.

One day I realized that sadness is just another word for not enough coffee.
90 minutes into the game and I haven't made it past character creation.

I would if I could. Need to pretend I'm working for another hour.

Am I supposed to die so often? Am at the place where we get Curante (?) (the redheaded priest) but am dying to groups of wolves and boars. I am a Chanter, level 2. Maybe I'm supposed to wait a bit in the town and gain experience?

I blame history buff Sawyer. >_>
 
This game is the real deal, I couldn't be happier. Almost nothing fucking happened at the start but I can feel it already, those little book-like "cutscenes" and the dialogs... hmmhmm, and I barely even started the game. It's going to be a pretty cool ride.



I so hope this game does well, this genre should never have been asleep for these many years.

It was simply resting, gathering its strength so it could unleash its fury upon us like a vengeful god.

They can always go Mask of the Betrayer on us and change the ratios in an expansion/sequel. And they have a second original IP Kickstarter coming soon, too, where they could scratch a different itch entirely.
 
Do you guys think I can get away with a 18 res, 19 int, 18 per, low everything else Chanter?

Finished the tutorial and did ok, had to camp once to recover, but everything else was alright. Playing on hard.
