Finally some sales evidence
Tarlonniel replied to no1fanboy's topic in Pillars of Eternity II: Deadfire General Discussion (NO SPOILERS)Welp, I just realized that I need this game in my life. Off to Steam!

Floating Hangman reactivity to other quests
Party in the afterlife! Everyone's invited, the theme is "Hotel California". 'Relax' said the night man, 'We are programmed to receive. You can check out any time you like, But you can never leave!'

Finally some sales evidence
Tarlonniel replied to no1fanboy's topic in Pillars of Eternity II: Deadfire General Discussion (NO SPOILERS)This be truth. This is destined. I don't know about bad sales, but I know quality. This game has it. It will have a glorious legacy. Hallelujah! Oh man, I'm going to have to keep my mods updated for years? I never signed up for that!

We're a mercenary squad, not a traveling brothel!
Tarlonniel replied to Daggerknight's topic in Pillars of Eternity II: Deadfire Stories (Spoiler Warning!)Several crew members will agree with that. Heck yeah. All our Watchers should get a version of this:

I think I missed Aloth's romance dialogue!
Tarlonniel replied to Jeddaven's topic in Pillars of Eternity II: Deadfire General Discussion (NO SPOILERS)Did you get his +2 approval conversation? That's the one where you can (possibly, with the right choices) initiate the romance. There is a bug which prevents that conversation from triggering for some folks, though.

Waidwen vs Eothas
Tarlonniel replied to Hanubiss's topic in Pillars of Eternity II: Deadfire Stories (Spoiler Warning!)The interaction is definitely there in the files, but whether it triggers in the game... maybe yes, maybe no, apparently. I haven't tried it.

Floating Hangman reactivity to other quests
Yup. Just take the ship and go. Stealing from thieves is always satisfying.

Accessing item descriptions for grimoires
There are item description entries for various grimoires in the game files, but clicking on a grimoire in the game only brings up its spell list. Is there no in-game way for players to see these descriptions?

Finally finished the game...I'm... confused :D
Tarlonniel replied to Skie Nightfall's topic in Pillars of Eternity II: Deadfire Stories (Spoiler Warning!)Reminds me of the Star Trek episode "Charlie X", where the havoc-wreaking demi-god's "parents" show up at the end and take him away while apologizing for his bad behavior. That would be amazing. Edit: And also "The Squire of Gothos," though he's a more silly and less havoc-wreaking version.

Finally finished the game...I'm... confused :D
Tarlonniel replied to Skie Nightfall's topic in Pillars of Eternity II: Deadfire Stories (Spoiler Warning!)Oh, Eora is definitely doomed. I hear they've already decided on the title of the third game - Pillars of Eternity: Grab What You Can and Get Out.

Romance Relationship questions
Tarlonniel replied to XEternalXDreamsX's topic in Pillars of Eternity II: Deadfire Stories (Spoiler Warning!)Which it makes it very interesting to look at which companions Obsidian does allow to (potentially) hang around - Edér and Aloth. Plus, hey, who knows what the sidekicks get up to when the game's over.

Romance Relationship questions
Tarlonniel replied to XEternalXDreamsX's topic in Pillars of Eternity II: Deadfire Stories (Spoiler Warning!)And on the other side of the coin, there are folks who like Aloth and his romance track. It's very quiet and understated, not surprisingly, though the kickoff is a bit more dramatic if you go the negative relationship route (yes, Aloth does have a rivalmance option).

Best roleplay builds
I made a death godlike who was not only 100% benevolent, but a Bleak Walker (it all tied into her background as a slave). Obviously I'm not above mechanically crippling my characters for RP purposes

Best roleplay builds
What's so surprising about that?
-
Best roleplay builds
My favorite roleplaying Watcher was an Island Amaua chanter from the Deadfire with the raider background. Shady as all get out, always had a wisecrack ready, but determined to look out for the little guy. It worked out very well - lots of reactivity and the interactions with the Queen and Tekehu took on a lot more weight.

Crookspur - how do you reach the hinterlands?
IIRC, there's an exit in the caves beneath the fort, near the pool where you can swim in from the outside.

Official Characters and Romance Thread (Spoiler Version) Part the Third
Tarlonniel replied to Amentep's topic in Pillars of Eternity II: Deadfire Stories (Spoiler Warning!)If you want maximum drama, bring them both along during SSS, let them develop their relationship... then "sacrifice" Konstanten at the end.

Eothas is Thaos (not literally, duh)
Tarlonniel replied to Wormerine's topic in Pillars of Eternity II: Deadfire Stories (Spoiler Warning!)It's not surprising that Eothas is no better than the Engwithan souls he's made out of. When you accuse Galawain of being a jerk in SSS, his response is basically, "Of course I am, because you are. Duh." And when you give kith a bunch of power and set them above consequences... well...

Development of Deadfire modding
Tarlonniel replied to Phenomenum's topic in Pillars of Eternity II: Deadfire: Modding (Spoiler Warning!)Hmm. Most of my mods don't fall under the first three categories, so I guess they're in category 4, "Nothing interesting".

Beast of Winter impressions
Tarlonniel replied to handsomenat's topic in Pillars of Eternity II: Deadfire Stories (Spoiler Warning!)She's talking about the three dragon champions of Ukaizo who were merged into the mecha-guardian by the Engwithans. I've come to the conclusion that Eothas just isn't very good at planning, strategy or forethought in general.

[SPOILERS] Thoughts: What is the story of Deadfire about?
Tarlonniel replied to Harry Easter's topic in Pillars of Eternity II: Deadfire Stories (Spoiler Warning!)Well, my first Watcher wanted justice for Eothas's victims and to stop the breaking of the Wheel. Then I had to adjust the expectations of my Watchers on subsequent playthroughs, because disappointment and failure aren't much fun. Now my characters' goals are along the lines of "stay alive" and "maybe help some folks."
