Who would that be and how many views?

That is encouraging.

So if anyone is watching the Twitch streams, what's the general consensus of the game from the streamers and public?

Frosted/bleached tips. Late 90's fad. Oh well. I guess that was a dud.

That's cool that they are. How else are we supposed to watch their streams if we don't know about it?

Not my .:R but still...

Reading about the Steam forums made me think about some of the other gaming communities. So I checked out the Bio forums again --since it's such a wellspring of RPG knowledge and discussion --to get a lay of the land and see what the weather-gauge was over there regarding Eternity's pending release. No one has posted on that thread in over 3 months. I mean, really?? Not even the slightest bit of interest Bio-Community?

There are Four...Acts!

Not only did that person skip through all the dialogues, they also did 0 side quests. And it was still 30 hours; makes me feel very good about my obsessive playthrough plans. Plus the testers should be well-versed in the content and so they know what to skip and know themselves some strategeries.

You'll get the choice of STEAM or GOG when the keys are released in a few days from the backer portal at: https://eternity.obsidian.net/backer/index

Well, to be fair...I had always wanted to post on this thread, but my ride back then was a hand-me-down 11 year old 1993 Camry station wagon. I suppose I could have then called it the '93 Leferdmobile Avant...

Yes. You will still get a key. They'll be released Monday or Tuesday from the backer portal: https://eternity.obsidian.net/

Ok. Now I may know why...

Someone is bound to post spoilers. But the good thing is that new user posts have to be mod-approved, so at least the spoilers probably won't come from the influx of newcomers whether as innocent mistakes or as troll posts.

Lols. And right on queue. Why do you hate Canadia so much?

While there's no Necromancer class per se...there is a field of study call Animancy that addresses what we would consider Necromancy as part of the lore in the game world. http://pillarsofeternity.gamepedia.com/Animancy As I understand it, it may be a major theme in the game itself.

I like cars. I did not really like my Element that much. It was okay, but not that much fun to drive. It had a bit more utility than I really needed, and my friends kept asking me to help them haul stuff enough that I had to make a frowny face. 3 years ago, I traded in my Element and bought this blue beauty: a MkVI Volkswagen R. I got the only options available: Navigation, Keyless Entry, upgraded Soundsystem, and Sunroof. I love it. It has a 256 horsepower 2.0 Turbo engine mated to a six-speed manual transmission. It uses a Haldex (front-biased) all-wheel drive system, but absolutely no torque steer is felt even under heavy driving. The brakes are from a MkV R32, with massive 4-piston calipers. Of course, it has a sport suspension and, as the pictures show, LED taillights. I am quite pleased.

They always create the appropriate subforums as a game is about to be released.

Josh Sawyer also drives an R32. http://forums.obsidian.net/topic/25210-my-new-car/ That is rad.

Unless I'm mistaken, the GOG version won't have achievements right? So why not opt for that version? Out of sight, out of mind.

Well, atleast I'm not the only one who has reading comprehension issues on this thread. Apparently I didn't quite get that Avellone ended up helping with the editing of the manual, and not actually writing it.
