Obsidian are pondering whether to send out physical copies to their Kickstarter backers, though with one minor omission: the actual disc.
Josh Sawyer returned on the subject of Pillars of Eternity 3, saying he'd like to do it if he had Baldur's Gate 3's budget at his disposal.
Why not try the quintessential cRPG?
save yourself a click, the basis for this article says BG3 you basically follow the main plot with little ability to influence anything lol.....which its anything but that, so either he played it once through and didnt pay much attention or hasnt even played it at all....
Whatever, man. I’m just grateful Baldur’s Gate 3 is the game we got. Absolutely fantastic!
From GameWatcher: "As Baldur's Gate 3 garners immense attention for its vast and immersive RPG experience, it raises the question: will its success prompt gamers to explore classic titles in the genre, like Pillars of Eternity?
On the platform X, which used to be Twitter, this topic did indeed spark curiosity among users. One particular post even caught the attention of Obsidian Entertainment's Studio Design Director, Josh Sawyer, prompting him to humorously comment on the possibility of a big-budget third installment for the Pillars of Eternity series."
Both POE games were fantastic imo. I would love to see a proper third entry. I doubt itll happen though seeing as especially the second game didnt do as well as expected despite having a fairly small budget.
The games are awesome, but I prefer I over II. The gameplay is better in II, but I personally can't get into the pirate thing anymore.
Sounds silly now, but it's going to be part of the future of the brick and mortar games store.
In other words, they're saying a physical reward tier is completely meaningless. The only DRM free version would be the one purchased from GOG as well.
