D3D11 Testing
apolloooo replied to Asmodean-'s topic in Pillars of Eternity: General Discussion (NO SPOILERS)
how do you force it? just typing on the consolce comman "-force-d3d11" doesnt work for me. it certainly looks better -
Is the Honeymoon Stage Over?
apolloooo replied to VahnXIII's topic in Pillars of Eternity: General Discussion (NO SPOILERS)
the gameplay is fine, maybe pathfinding is horrible, and right now, kinda unbalanced, but the core mechanics itself is great. unless you're one of those people who "waa waa micromanage! waa waa too much pause! waa waa the combat isn't a copy paste of D&D games waa waah" -
PoE Sales?

PoE Sales?
apolloooo replied to Palmtuna's topic in Pillars of Eternity: General Discussion (NO SPOILERS)
Some magazines report that Skyrim sales on all platforms have reached 20m. Even assuming PoE should reach 1m after a few years, which I feel is optimistic... something about that ratio is terribly depressing . It often seems that the worse the game, the better the sales. probably 20 m across all consoles. also skyrim have alot more budget than PoE and it is watered down, simplified RPG that cater to the less intelligent mass, of course it sells more -
Is the Honeymoon Stage Over?

don't forget "too much text, too much writing waa waa i am illiterate waa waa" so far these week 3 topics are all constructive criticism instead of troll-whining and s***posting -
yup. repulsing seal made me unscratched in that level 5 drake battle. just spam the field with it, go to first circle, enemy down, attack, when they get up, retreat to the second circle, attack BOOM

PoE Sales?
apolloooo replied to Palmtuna's topic in Pillars of Eternity: General Discussion (NO SPOILERS)
i hope the budget for POE 2 is 100 million or something and there are 30 athkatla-sized cities, 50 twin elms sized villages and 100 level megadungeon and 250 overworld map... plot twist: -

when will 1.04 up for down?
apolloooo replied to apolloooo's topic in Pillars of Eternity: General Discussion (NO SPOILERS)
yes, it mean up for download >___> didn't think this would confuse people <__< -
so i have been hearing complaints that combat is chaotic, etc etc, i myself have little problem with it, but i have an idea: those circles below characters? what if we can choose the colors for our companions? like we set green to MC, yellow to eder, purple to aloth etc, it will have 6 different colors, except red since it's reserved for enemies. if i am not not mistaken, baldur's gate did this, and it make us easier who's who beneath all those shiny effects during pause

Humor. Do we have humor?
apolloooo replied to ibanix's topic in Pillars of Eternity: General Discussion (NO SPOILERS)
everything coming out of hiravias is comedy gold, especially the banters -
if it is anything like baldur's gate, PoE put us in an all familiar, generic fantasy setting most of the time grass meadow, forest, england-esque medieval villages, much like BG 1, then comes BG 2 which immediately take you into an exotic, middle-eastern like city, then comes locations like underdark, that underwater city, etc. so what kind of place you want for Pillars 2? my top list : -vaillian republic : one of 5 the city states maybe, or all of them this looks inspired by florence and other independent city-state in renaissance era. i'd love to see buildings made of marbles, clean white streets and paladins in gilded armor walking the streets. -deadfire archipelago : hawaii of eora probably. might be intersting landscape, where molten lava meets sewater, steam floating up the sky, exotic fauna -rauatai: another interesting location, as described by kana. i want to see the giant coral gate his father built. that's top my current top 3

update today?
apolloooo replied to FrankFore20's topic in Pillars of Eternity: General Discussion (NO SPOILERS)
Me too, and noticed nothing. -
i dunno about unity 5, but 4 is a horrible engine, i have decent hardware, but in combat when using spells i get serious slowdown. that is present is most unity games i played like wasteland 2 and dreamfall chapters. maybe it can use UE 4 since it is cheap now, and with the demo i have tried, it offer beautiful graphics with really awesome performance. the background will still use drawn 2D, but the characters and magical effect such as lightning, particles will look awesome using UE 4, or if unity 5 perform better than 4
