Ethics Gradient

Pledge a the "two soul" tier, and you'll get a cool Pillars of Eternity 2 hip flask! Now, anyone got a soul I can um... borrow?

Trade between parties, or pull some tricks to farm scenario loots. [Details here.]

It's a Gamergate thing, basically. There's no reason for a normal backer not to use Fig. It's the developers who should be worried about it, they're the ones who end up with investors they have to pay back. And ironically normal backers avoiding Fig only makes them more beholden to said investors, so the anti-Fig thing is kind of self-destructive. Got it. Thanks! As far as I can tell, the arguments against seem to amount to: "I don't like it because it is different" instead of any particularly substantial reason. Is there any evidence to suggest that the funding mechanism doesn't work as advertised?

Anyone willing to expand on reasons they don't like Fig? Edit: Erp. Nevermind. Looks like Mich-666 did just that... Any other reasons?

@Obsidian 12 hours.

He also continued a little further on his Q&A tumblr page: "Hel does not have an inherently negative connotation in Eora, i.e. it is not imagined/described as a realm of fire and brimstone where souls or tormented."

Ok everyone. Synchronize your watches! The global countdown begins!

Medium-high confidence that it spells out deadfire. Check out the first page or two of this thread.

Hm...

<!-- ******** I ******** --> Final teaser!

... or maybe, we're all winners here!

OR, we might just get a disappointing nothing until the "real" countdown ends. Either way, we can do nothing but kick back, grab a beer or twelve and see what happens :D The countdown timer definitely uses local browser time. It seems unaware that most people aren't in PST. The accuracy of the timer highly depends on how close you live to California.

Agreed. It appears to be using local system time. I cannot see it unless I screw about with my time zone. As of right now, we're 30+ hours out from 10 AM PST. Parts have been there, lurking in the page code. "Today" is they day things went active. Edit: FYI nothing happens if you monkey with your system time and watch the timer run to zero.

Villain/Henchman cards that sneak into your deck should be visible in the deck management screen if you press the "View All" button. From there, just drag it out of the character's deck into the lower half of the screen and you should be able to press the triangle button to get rid of it and continue on with your game.

Thanks! Things seemed fine when the weekly challenges began on the Monday reset (4pm pst sunday). But ever since the slide to the Tuesday, and now Wednesday reset..., I'm guessing playfab has some conflicting views on how to define a "week". Weekly Challenges seem to end on Sunday regardless of when they began. If there is a delay in issuing the challenge, it leaves a day or two without a weekly.

Ok. It's back like I anticipated. Though the schedule mismatch is clearly upsetting the app. Weekly: 1/25-1/31 - 4 days remaining....

I'm imagining it differently. The most important question for PoE2: Will our pirate companions have awesome songs?

Distressed crown and sphere? Anyone else getting a Pearl Coast vibe?

Today's Twitter image was also accompanied with a "PST." That shores up the current theory that something will happen January 26, 10 AM PST.

<!-- ******** II ******** --> One more teaser to go!

Yeah, it went AWOL again. The last couple weekly challenges have been off by a day or so. It should be back again tonight. Edit: "Tonight" is a bit relative. Things should snap back to normal at the next daily reset, whenever that happens to fall for you.

Yeah..... it isn't a very well-known feature. It is great that the option is there, but it may be a little too hidden for most players to discover it. It would be nice if playing a BotG or FotG prompted "Discard" or "Copy Blessing" options (or something like that). I guess the good news is that it is probably somewhat rare that a player even has a FotG because it is a treasure card.

Ring of Serene Contortions? (AD6 treasure item) Normally just a "reveal to add 2 dex"; the other powers is simply: bury this card to add 10 to your check.

So far, all the updates and twitter posts are at 10 AM PST. 10:00 AM PST, Jan 26: A thing will happen!

<!-- ******** III ******** --> We're almost there!
