So, shall we request more passive talents for casters?
Bill Gates' Son replied to AndreaColombo's topic in Pillars of Eternity II: Deadfire General Discussion (NO SPOILERS)i want more melee talants for casters who don't multiclass. Caster had access to a lot of these abilities back in PoE1 even though some of them weren't that optimal.

Ydwin & Sidekicks in general
Bill Gates' Son replied to wanderon's topic in Pillars of Eternity II: Deadfire Stories (Spoiler Warning!)i would like to point out that some of the sidekicks have a bit of dialogue in the beast of winter area, mainly Vatnir, Ydwin, and Rekke.

Please give us Ydwin

- Pathfinder Kingmaker is bigger then Deadfire
This game looks great, but I honestly fear for this game success since the CRPG renaissance has died down a bit. It would be lucky if this game reaches over 7000 peak players on steamcharts.- Pathfinder RPG Kingmaker
A niche crpg game from a less popular studio with barely any advertising and lower crowdfunding money is going to outsell PoE. Great logic there.- Keep the Ship Mechanic in Pillars 3 or Reuse the mechanics in a Pirate CRPG?
Bill Gates' Son replied to injurai's topic in Pillars of Eternity II: Deadfire General Discussion (NO SPOILERS)By your terrible logic, games like Black Flag and Sea of Thieves would have sold badly.- Finally some sales evidence
Bill Gates' Son replied to no1fanboy's topic in Pillars of Eternity II: Deadfire General Discussion (NO SPOILERS)Numbers have already been leaked. https://arstechnica.com/gaming/2018/07/steam-data-leak-reveals-precise-player-count-for-thousands-of-games/- Theory: DLC 2 is about Durance
Bill Gates' Son replied to Grimo88's topic in Pillars of Eternity II: Deadfire Stories (Spoiler Warning!)Did you kill every native Dyrwoodan as well? I only kill people I really dislike in my games. Mudering someone just because you dislike them isn't exactly a "good" thing.- Chanter Summons are Significantly Tankier and Do More Damage than Ranger Pets
Bill Gates' Son replied to Marigoldran's topic in Pillars of Eternity II: Deadfire General Discussion (NO SPOILERS)The whole point of the class is its passive buffs. If you want more active abilities, then use another class.- And ... Another Free Dlc Guys
Bill Gates' Son replied to Whitewolfsp's topic in Pillars of Eternity II: Deadfire General Discussion (NO SPOILERS)I kind of agree. Adding in new crew members is basically adding in no content for me. All these crew members are to me are generic people who use player character portraits. I wanted another sidekick. Nevertheless, free DLC is nice. I like the new savage personality.- so charge is totally useless now?
Bill Gates' Son replied to Archaven's topic in Pillars of Eternity II: Deadfire General Discussion (NO SPOILERS)People used it for the damage? Strange; I always used it for the mobility.- Single-class casters should have access to all spells.
Bill Gates' Son replied to Hebruixe's topic in Pillars of Eternity II: Deadfire General Discussion (NO SPOILERS)Some of us like access to a lot of spells because we like their effects, not because of how strong they are in a min/max point of view. Nevertheless, I'm fine with the current system since the game is balanced around it.- An Ogre party member for DLC
Bill Gates' Son replied to TheBruce's topic in Pillars of Eternity II: Deadfire General Discussion (NO SPOILERS)Just make them sidekicks. Problem solved.- UMM! You forgot something, Mirke...
Bill Gates' Son replied to fortuntek's topic in Pillars of Eternity II: Deadfire General Discussion (NO SPOILERS)Same. I thought the "fix" was more about fixing a glitch that turned her body human shaped, not about removing her nude body. But maybe I read the patch notes wrong and maybe my game is glitched.- Patch 1.1.0 Updates Thread
Not sure if this counts as a really minor nitpick, but Mirke doesn't seem to have her bangs anymore with the tricorn hat after the partial hair update.- What do you want to see in the franchise
Bill Gates' Son replied to Dodo00d's topic in Pillars of Eternity II: Deadfire General Discussion (NO SPOILERS)I want to see other genres in this franchise. Keep the main series isometric, but I wouldln't mind a spinoff in the style of new vegas or neverwinter nights.- Opinions and suggestions on how to improve companion relationships and crew interactions
Bill Gates' Son replied to algroth's topic in Pillars of Eternity II: Deadfire General Discussion (NO SPOILERS)I'm not a fan of the crew personality system because your crew members are no longer unique after recruitment. I honestly would have preferred a smaller boat crew over a bunch of generic characters who say the same lines on deck and in the scripted interactions. I didn't find myself getting attached to any of my crew members after I recruit them. While I'm not the biggest fan of BioWare, NPC crew interaction is something they do extremely well in the Dragon Age and Mass Effect series, and I was hoping for something similar in this game.- Should the Kapana Taga change its weapon type to club?
Bill Gates' Son replied to Fluffle's topic in Pillars of Eternity II: Deadfire Stories (Spoiler Warning!)Does it really matter whether a unique is legendary or not when you can easily get enough money to upgrade them to legendary late game?- Character disappointments
Bill Gates' Son replied to KindCollusion's topic in Pillars of Eternity II: Deadfire Stories (Spoiler Warning!)I tried *SO MANY TIMES*. Literally like a *dozen* times, couldn't manage to do it. They run up to him to damn fast, I couldn't even get close. You can pretty much stop that guy by using an ability like charge, escape, jump, etc immediately at the beginning of battle.- In Defense of the Story
Bill Gates' Son replied to Grimo88's topic in Pillars of Eternity II: Deadfire Stories (Spoiler Warning!)Why can't people like you just get over yourself and accept that a person can have their own perspective? Why do people like you have to be so antagonistic all the time? I'm not the one who started this smug ass thread claiming that people who dislike the story are "shallow" and "missing the point". Obsidian fans have got to be some of the most obnoxious I've come across. and you've been nothing but an obnoxious troll since I've seen you on this forum.- Character portrait: Is Bearn young Teddy Roosevelt?
Bill Gates' Son replied to RosingBull's topic in Pillars of Eternity II: Deadfire General Discussion (NO SPOILERS)The normal painted portraits are based off real people as well.- UMM! You forgot something, Mirke...
Bill Gates' Son replied to fortuntek's topic in Pillars of Eternity II: Deadfire General Discussion (NO SPOILERS)I would leave it in. I say it definitely fits her character.- RANDOM VIDEO GAME NEWS - VISUAL NOVELS ALLOWED
RIP. He introduced me to a lot of PC games.- Is a new patch on the way?
Bill Gates' Son replied to andoli's topic in Pillars of Eternity II: Deadfire Technical Support (Spoiler Warning!)... we've had 2 major patches fixing bugs since release a little over a week ago. We've had ONE hotfix that primarily dealt with the issues related to importing save files (which is a pointless feature anyway considering that PoE 1 choices don't affect the plot of Deadfire in any meaningful way). Pillars 1 received significant updates (2.0 and 3.0) with tons of QoL features and bug fixes, while the planned DLC for Deadfire and another pointless sidekick don't inspire confidence. After all is said and done, this game is gonna end up abandoned like Tides of Numenera - a broken mess. You have the right to be concerned but looks like today's annoucement just contradicted everything you just said........- - some - Companions Attributes
Bill Gates' Son replied to molotov.'s topic in Pillars of Eternity II: Deadfire General Discussion (NO SPOILERS)My durance was mostly my hard-hitting arquebus gunner who occasionally used support spell. People overrate attributes in PoE since there extremely easy to raise. In fact, priests get a level 7 spell that raises all of their attributes by 8 points. - Pathfinder Kingmaker is bigger then Deadfire
