How about the stronghold fix and individual sneaking fix？

Haha,my forecast was right.

Please do write good companions this time...

Good luck MCA. For now I probably won't back POE2 or anyother KS projects from Obsidian,only if they have some new super weapons on game writhing.

Anything is possible. I am currently talking things over with folks about ways to expand the brand. One of the ideas that came up involved lots of short stories about PoE.Hi Brandon，have you received the email about the asian translation problem in 1.05 patch，which Chris metioned of it with you？

“Durgan Battery” appeared in the text of 1.0.5 patch.So it seems the first expansion will be in White March.And the first new companion willbe a rogue.

Petrification is a very fun spell.The problem is that it's to powerful in Boss battles. How to solve this problem without hurting the fun of this spell? I think the best way is to add a new ability to those legend monsters:getting rid of petrifaction. Then they can get free within 2-3 seconds from petrifiaction,by a special animation. In fact,I really miss the spell “Flesh to Stone” in BG, which petrify enemy for ever,only could be rescued by ”Stone to Flesh“.That's a true role-playing design.

Of course extension of the current game.If I want to play a sparate game，I will buy POE2.

Of course，3-4 big expansions is a must.Maybe two big and two small？

MP is a virus in many games, and not something the backers wanted. So we are quite happy that it is not included here. Speak for yourself, you'll find you are in the minority here. You mean D：OS？

So the author is a great fan of Bioware？ For me，BG2 is a 7/10 game，not as good as PST and Fallout2. People's taste are really different.

Am I the only one who love BG1 more than BG2？

This is kinda true. You can slaughter everyone in the inn in Dyrford (which is basically 70% of the town population), and how does the remaining population react? They now consider you to have a "Faintly Mixed" reputation, and that's it. Is that what "reactivity" means in RPGs in 2015? If you tried that in Athkatla in BG2, you would be intercepted by wave after wave of guards and powerful mages sent to stop/punish you. And I never considered BG2 to be very good at reactivity - it's just what I would have expected to be used as a minimum standard for PoE development. Yes，that is a big problem.I metioned it even in Beta time.They really need to fix it in further update.

Yes，what's wrong am I？I need to read more RPGcodex to cure my horrible disease.

Yes, that's why I expect 4-5 big expansions. A expansion which enhance the content around Twin Elms will be a great mercy to me~

Yes, that's what I thought about.A little crazy,but will be very cool.We can choose to hire a sottish sailor or a wild female private.Several great battle with different sea monster, Octopus,Archelon,we need to beat them on the deck within limited time(before they sink our ship). A little more, a huge vortex lead to a deepsea city?a ghost ship encounter?

Teleportation,pocket plane or flying castle,those sound too powerful to our character in POE1(I don't think our hero will be able achieve more than 15 level in expansions). IMO the fast travel is enough for now,maybe we can add something as pigeon mail to get more control on stronghold? I am figuring that the stronghold could have some artifact unearthed that makes it easily accessible from around the world - but it is faulty, not well understood, and has limitations so Obsidian can "break" those abilities for when a situation calls for access to be cut off. EG: A teleporter gazebo in White March is covered by an avalanche, making it inoperable. I get it .Stronghold teleporter artifact,or landing in new land by ship, anyway, that would be a part about POE2. For expansions of POE1, I'd like to see some contents fitting seamlessly into the original game,as Slient Winter said above.

Yes,that's exactly what I want.

That's a element for POE2:)For expansions they just need to put new contents into the original world map. If we base on the poll selection, everything there is PoE 2 material. What we really need now is, like you said, new stuff on the current map like stuff similar to Tales of the Sword Coast or Throne of Bhaal since the game feels like the Infinity Engine games. There are options to consider: 1. Expansions packs ala TotSC where new areas and quests are added and can be played before jumping to the pit. 2. Mask of the Betrayer/Heart of Winter route where you get to continue your character in a new storyline. (import character) 3. Shadows of the Undrentide route where you get to play a new protagonist and explore other parts of the land on a new storyline. For me, of course the best option is ToSC. We had only one island on ToSC.On POE we may have several new islands.And the ship could be designed like the stronghold system.Better ship you bought, farther you can go.More cannons you bought, harder sea monster you can beat.And they can design sailors like the hireling in the stronghold,something like that.Also you can just buy a sampan and start an impossible venture.Then you will finally awaken on a nameless beach with fragments of your sampan.Then you need to find out a new way to get back mainland.

I love the idea of underground city.Wish Obsidian could give us more information about the first expansion And about companions,more than 3 new companions is deadline of my expectation~

This idea is really cool!Imagine that how the villagers are scaring when the Xaurip walks into the town:) About the stronghold,it's become the second regret for me.The biggest one is the lack of content in Twin Elms.The third one is companion design, which is not as perfect as BG and DAO. If I have a chance to design a new companion,I wish to design a powerful barbarian companion,who is the final boss of the White March stroyline.It would be very hard to beat him and gain his repect.

Let ranger ride on pet and crash emeny，haha ，that would be funny.
