A few early observations from a backer
Takehu is actually my favourite companion. I like his personality, and how he's kind of the main character of his story not just there for for your benefit.

Armchair theories on why POE2 didn't sell super well
daven replied to BrokenMask's topic in Pillars of Eternity II: Deadfire General Discussion (NO SPOILERS)Even though BG1/2 are some of my favourite games. I would much prefer a POE3 than a BG3(which we're actually getting some some reason!).

Right.. i've genuinely heard people here say 'I'm voting to leave the EU to get rid of all the muslims'. These people should not be allowed to vote IMO because they have no idea about anything. No point going on how much nonsense that statement even is, but yeah... los of stupid folk about.

Yeah.. The Guardian... geez. The reporters on that site are the most smug, pretentious people going.- Politics First Contact
I was wondering where RT was, i actually like the Keiser Report.- Politics First Contact
Also I have to say, Trump should have never been President in the first place!!! He is the star of Celebrity Apprentice! Well it's nothing to do with me i'm not American, the UK is in more of a **** show than the US.- Politics First Contact
Well, I voted for Green party in my constituency. They get about 1000 votes coming 4th, with Conservative getting over 50% of total votes. Some people are getting super upset about it, but that's democracy, you make your vote and if it doesn't win you just have to deal with it what is the point complaining forever.- Armchair theories on why POE2 didn't sell super well
daven replied to BrokenMask's topic in Pillars of Eternity II: Deadfire General Discussion (NO SPOILERS)There is so much stuff out there right now, everything is in competition for your money. Games like this probably need to manage their budget a lot better to make money. I doubt adding full VO gave it any additional sales. Hey Obsidian, I'm a finance analyst! Let me come work for you! I spend my entire life making budgets......- Armchair theories on why POE2 didn't sell super well
daven replied to BrokenMask's topic in Pillars of Eternity II: Deadfire General Discussion (NO SPOILERS)I think PoE suffered from... not being Forgotten Realms! This is why so many games/movies/tv shows/whatever are remakes and remasters and sequels and whatever... brand recognition. People (in general) like the familiar, why do you think McDonalds is so popular?! It's garbage food but you know exactly what you're going to get.- The Next Mass Effect?
Other than being vaguely sci fi, it's nothing like Mass Effect. Strange comparison.- Did anyone complete this Ultimate malarkey?

Hasn't Steam had exclusives? Nobody seems to care about that. It's called brand loyalty and it's for suckers.- The Outer Worlds is nominated for GOTY, Best RPG and Best Story at IGN

What an awful year for RPG's.- After playing Kingmaker..
daven replied to Kilburn's topic in Pillars of Eternity II: Deadfire General Discussion (NO SPOILERS)Apparently young people are becoming serial returners more and more. Due to the whole social media lifestyle people want a new outfit every weekend to take photos of themselves in and then they send it back. Of course that is clothing not games.- will POE2 ever come to consoles? EVER?
daven replied to deveroth's topic in Pillars of Eternity II: Deadfire General Discussion (NO SPOILERS)Hmm never heard of that one. Will check it out. I'm due another replay of BG1 and 2, i actually only replay the original games now as well. I played the 'Enhanced Editions' when they first came out but i think they added more flaws than improvements.- will POE2 ever come to consoles? EVER?

daven replied to Kilburn's topic in Pillars of Eternity II: Deadfire General Discussion (NO SPOILERS)Josh ran away to his echo chamber.- Neketaka is a good city - Cities in RPGs
I get what you're saying but I'm not trying to get too serious with this. I'm just seeing what people like or dislike about the big city concept. They tend to be disappointing in general, except athkatla probably. Kotor doesnt have any main cities, just the hubs of the different worlds and that works perfectly fine. Edit. I actually think it works best when it's the main area of the game, bg2.. and a controversial one here... dragon age 2s kirkwall. I think in bg1 you get to the city a bit too late, iits built up too much and doesn't live up to expectations.- My biggest issue with the gender binary in The Outer Worlds:
Americans have been doing this for WW2 movies for years, making out they were the only ones who did anything in that war. Completely forgetting all the efforts British and the rest of the allies had been doing for years. Then young people believe the rubbish they see in films and get a completely incorrect and distorted view of the world.- Politics First Contact
I don't mind Corbyn unlike a lot of people here but I can't bring mysel to vote for Labour. Tony Blair was associated with them and he is still free when he should be locked up! Maybe i'll vote Green party. The planets going to hell right now.
