Man, what a success. Obsidian launched yesterday a crowd-funding campaign for Pillars of Eternity II: Deadfire and we are happy to report that the game has already been funded, raising $1.1 million in less than 24 hours.
Inspired by classic titles such as Baldur’s Gate 2: Shadows of Amn, Icewind Dale, and Planescape: Torment, Pillars of Eternity II: Deadfire improves upon the rich narrative, beautiful environments, and intricate, tactical combat that made the original a fan and critical sensation.
With Deadfire, Obsidian will take players on a second fantastic journey to the world of Eora, this time to the vast, uncharted, Deadfire Archipelago. where they will fight for their souls as they hunt down a god.
Pillars of Eternity II: Deadfire will feature enhanced reactivity, intense and immersive dynamic weather, a new dynamic lighting and shadows engine, revised spells and abilities with new visual effects, as well as tons of scripted interactions, all-new interfaces for inventory and dialog, new creatures, and more.

Still, the PC platform won him over consoles. That was mainly due to 3DFX and its iconic dedicated 3D accelerator graphics card, Voodoo 2.

Yup, the Great Game is ‘finally’ founded 😉
Should I play pillars of eternity 1 first before hopping into this one or no.
No. But I would recommend it because the first game is very similar to this and I can’t see any reason for skipping it.
And it’ll also help in understanding the lore and setting better.
I would say yes since in my opinion the first one is one of the best iso rpgs since the Baldur’s Gate and Icewind Dale.
That was quick! 🙂
You just live on here don’t ya? 😛
LOL, yes, I’m addicted to this site for years now. xD
But I’ll be taking a long break soon. 🙂
I wonder why.
Various reasons. 🙂
Focus on life stuff, finding a new job, assemble a new computer, playing more games instead of discussing them lol,
cleanse myself from this filth ;P, etc.good luck
Traitorous scum.

Ha. I always see a handful of commons on this site.
It is because John puts something on the Kool aid to get us all addicted.
I want to play as a sexy orc that seduces females with my gyrations. I hope gigolo is a class in the game.
Well i am still here. So there is that.
Oh boy.
the biggest problem for me is that you can have 5 characters instead of 6 now.
