It's been mentioned before - since the game's isometric a great deal of detail isn't required; all the same, I'd be great if what we can see looked good

Weapon mechanics
Karranthain replied to Karranthain's topic in Pillars of Eternity: Stories (Spoiler Warning!)
IE games had "utility" slots for potions and the like - pistols could perhaps be put there (should PE have such funcionality, of course). That way the player would have to sacrifice easy access to healing potions, for an instance. -
Project Eternity: Wiki

Have the playable classes been confirmed or is that just conjecture? Thanks for creating the wiki, Ausir! -
As I've mentioned before, the LotR movies, I reckon, had a nice balance between realism & practicality and fantasy look.

Weapon mechanics

Aye, stagger would be a good idea. But that description is more of an example, with some the numbers chosen arbitrarily - just wanted to provide an example with various mechanics involved. As for the longbows - definitely, that's the way bows worked in IE games. I'll be adding some thoughts on shields tomorrow. -

Expanding on the idea, here's an example of a full weapon description (it's mainly abstract) : Claymore of Eír Glanfath Type : Greatsword. Training required : Yes. Damage type : Slashing and Crushing. Damage dealt : 10 + 2d10. Speed : Slow. Reach : Moderate. Critical Effect : 200% more damage on critical hits and a 5% chance to dismember the foe, resulting in an instant death. Armour Boni : +5 against cloth, leather and chain armour. Armour Mali : None. Perks : a) Harder to parry against. b) Tiring to use. Attack chains : a) Parry - Disarm. b) Pommel Strike - Eviscerate. Just an example of different weapon statistics that could be used in PE. -
I agree, I really like those designs. It's fantasy, but at the same time it looks fairly practical.
