Update #21: 5 days left!
Shardbearer replied to The Guildmaster's topic in Pillars of Eternity: Announcements and News
Any Idea on who the reader for the audiobook of the novella will be? I have no idea about the relative costs of narrators, but Michael Kramer is a fantastic Voice Artist, especially for fantasy novels. He's done all of the Wheel of Time books, as well as my favorite book The Way of Kings.- 88 replies

It probably has been said before, but isn't this why there are 3 different hardcore modes?

I so want to be able to train my rogue in the lute now. -
Paladins and Bards
Shardbearer replied to AlphaShard's topic in Pillars of Eternity: Stories (Spoiler Warning!)
I feel like a bard can be a subspeciality of rogue, and a paladin could be a heavy armor/heavy weapon specialty of cleric or cleric/warrior. Though I do like the idea of gaining the title/attribute of Paladin throughout the game. Its very DA:O to have to acquire the subspecialities, possibly through training and/or gaining the trust/membership of a faction. -
I hope that doesn't mean too much micro management, and that they can handle their inventories on their own if you so please. Or better yet, have a large shared party inventory, instead of being split between multiple characters. God I hope not. Never played a game with decent enough AI that I could trust my companions to intelligently "handle their inventory on their own". In systems like that, your companions inevidably make the most retarded choices. They'll use up the charges on their best wands when fighting.... goblins. They'll chug down all their healing potions when the fight

Actually I was hoping some restrictions on items, particularly on armors. It always seems weird when a Dwarf Plate can be shared with other party members... Unless Dwarves have invented stretch metal in Project Eternity :D "Get the Breastplate stretcher!" One of my favorite scenes with the king from Game of Thrones season 1

Moronic ideas deserve all the hate and vitriol they can get lest they somehow take hold. And frankly we should stop with this stupid notion that everyone should be enjoy games in any way they want - this way of thinking has brought us the current generation of "cRPGs" and should die in a fire alongside its proponents. I enjoy RTS games but suck terribly at them. It would never occur to me to demand they change just so I could see the story - I just cheated my way through Broodwars. I didn't say the game should change to accommodate how different people enjoy games, or that we can't crit

I dislike this idea as much as the next guy, but seriously?! Are you seriously insulting people and giving them crap for role-playing in a role-playing game? The discussed feature has no place in a single-player game imo, but leave the personal insults at home please, everyone enjoys games in different ways and there is nothing wrong with that.

If banks somehow worked into factions and conflicts and plots that would be awesome. Maybe choosing what bank (even with some legit and some less-than-official) to store your money in can have an effect... As far as weight goes I've always felt like bulkiness of items would become prohibitive long before weight does.

Can you, uh, send your party over to my town for a bit? On another note, I'd love to complete a quest in a game, solving, or appearing to solve, the immediate problem via choice, only to have unintended consequences creating an even larger problem. Intentions do not always need to equal the results.

I would actually like to see separate magic classes for "traditional" mages that cast fireballs and the lot, and those that practice more "engineering/fabrication" magic for lack of a better term. The latter type would be able to ascribe special characteristics to their clothing/armor and weapons, and even fabricate weapons unique to their class (special enchanted guns, wands etc). They'd have access to all sorts of fabricated magical devices, alchemy, etc. Essentially they use their magic to fabricate and alter and then use the created items for practical purposes. Just an idea.
