Is there a possibility that half of the team will develop Pathfinder and other half POE2?

Clueless. I guess Obsidian will announce their official future projects after the WM2 comes out.

I thought PoE2 is already in their plans that's the reason I didn't add it. http://www.gamebanshee.com/news/116069-pillars-of-eternity-the-white-march-part-ii-will-be-last-expansion-obsidian-talks-sequel.html But no reason not to add it as well tbh. Isn't the Pathfinder their next game ?

Let's be more constructive. Personal opinion war could go indefinitely. I'll start discussion about lore. This is mildly a spoiler because devs said this beta could change in final version. Seeing gameplay videos, did you notice that humanity mechanic is gone? After you use ember, on your character there is a charring tinder texture. My first thought is, as this is soul game, that fire is somewhat connected to purifying the soul. So, what could be implications of this gimmick ?

I would like Pillars of eternity 2 in different timeline. So, I would like their own IP. Could you add it to the poll?

I meant somthing like this but it has to build up to unique moment.

Where ? I missed probably.

quoting Qistina I think this is just a crude concept and outline of a game. To wrap it up in an engine is completely another road and burden to take. Also I would like to make this topic an constructive talk about Dark souls 3 and general DS universe. Let's not this to turn to flaming or trolling another's opinions back and fort.

I don't agree with this. I've tried to make such similar game and it's quite hard. Fromsoft has writen their own engine also. Also, there are more development teams. One, which is working on DS3 and another team which is working on their's unannounced project. On characters side, I agree there could be some more depth in DS2. Dark souls characters are quire memorable and well written.

Suggestion for upcoming WM part 2: Could you add mimic monsters?

I have a quite long and frozen winter so I was wondering if this is a good game to spend time till White march part 2? If anybody played it could would you recommend it?

I know that developers are a huge fan of Dark souls. I'm really excited for DS3 and here are the news form the very Hidetaka Miyazaki http://www.gamespot.com/articles/dark-souls-3-interview-it-wouldnt-be-right-to-cont/1100-6432425/

http://www.gamepressure.com/e.asp?ID=389 News for the upcoming game probably after WM part 2 release. It's rather interesting about other project instead POE2.

@JerekKruger, I meant non-linear level design and variety of styles in BG2: cities, forests, temples, graveyards, underdark, Sahuagin city ... In BG there were used a lot similar colour palettes to build a level. POE2 should explore dystopian high fantasy theme in my opinion with some key elements for example : flying cities, darker forests, weird ruins and planes, non-archetypical habitats, non-common sanctuaries and environments ...

I acctually like that weird arhitecture in BG2 more that BG. I feels more like a fantasy theme. Like the Underdark level, and Ust Natha in BG2. Also. BG2 was more non linear and had better level design. I wish that for POE2 (and POE3 )

Will WM part 2 enlit the story progression in POE2 or give some hints about it?

Also,dark fantasy theme as in Souls games and Bloodborne. Not just with that horror elements but with the constant otherwordly athmosphere. Darker woods and soft dark colored/contrasted environments with strange nature within. Also, more unique boss fights with good writing.

I would like POE2 would have more otherworldly locations and darker fantasy theme.

So, The White March Pt. II and patch 2.03 will be up simultaneously ?

Wait, will WM2 have underwater areas ? If that's so than it will be awesome!

Sorry, I didn't understand your question. Could you eleborate? POE2 won't have any connections to BG except it's RPG and maybe some easter eggs. Importing POE character could be possbility. Depends of the timeline and story of POE2.

When it's ready and finished. My guess in January/February 2016. I'm reading all across the web about Pillars of eternity 2 ( http://www.gamebanshee.com/news/116069-pillars-of-eternity-the-white-march-part-ii-will-be-last-expansion-obsidian-talks-sequel.html) I was thinking that White march episode 2 should set up the POE2 story or some hints about it.

I don't like MP but co-op should be implemented in POE2. But difficulty should scale also with more challenge.
