PE already inspiring others
Hiro Protagonist II replied to norolim's topic in Pillars of Eternity: General Discussion (NO SPOILERS)It says it on their Kickstarter page. "Old School RPG is a classic first-person, fantasy/sci-fi RPG brought to you by award-winning veterans."

Hiro Protagonist II replied to norolim's topic in Pillars of Eternity: General Discussion (NO SPOILERS)For good or ill it doesn't even look like they've even got that design decision down. It says on their kickstarter page that it will be a first person rpg. I'm thinking it will be similar to Legend of Grimrock and previous 80s and 90s rpgs.

Hiro Protagonist II replied to norolim's topic in Pillars of Eternity: General Discussion (NO SPOILERS)It's only been a day and they've raised over 100K. I'm sure they'll make it. It's just not my type of rpg.

The Dwarf ranger is a companion!?!?!?
Hiro Protagonist II replied to dukeofyork's topic in Pillars of Eternity: General Discussion (NO SPOILERS)What threw me is that they don't really look the same except for the clothing. But now I see they're the same person with same hairstyle.

Hiro Protagonist II replied to dukeofyork's topic in Pillars of Eternity: General Discussion (NO SPOILERS)To be honest, I didn't realise that the dwarf ranger was a dwarf at first.

Strategy Guide, Collector's Book and other digital books
Hiro Protagonist II replied to Niwamaxou's topic in Pillars of Eternity: General Discussion (NO SPOILERS)I'd like to see a novella on each companion and to read their back story. I've always wanted to read the back story of the Baldurs Gate companions.

Would you like to see orchestral score as a stretch goal?
Hiro Protagonist II replied to jerf's topic in Pillars of Eternity: General Discussion (NO SPOILERS)They could always get a school band with Justin Bell conducting. Would be a good Aprils fools joke.

Are Paypal donations to be counted on Kickstarter page?
Hiro Protagonist II replied to aratuk's topic in Pillars of Eternity: General Discussion (NO SPOILERS)They'll probably add it at the end of the campaign with the amount of money and backers through Paypal. But it would be good if you could see it on the Kickstarter page everyday. edit. That's what happens when you step away from your desk in mid-type. Thanks for the update Adam.

Overreaction theater!
Hiro Protagonist II replied to Madzookeeper's topic in Pillars of Eternity: General Discussion (NO SPOILERS)I'm just glad the high tier backers ($1000.00+) are getting their own private forum on the Obsidian forums.

Cipher Class
Bard? These are more like Psions in D&D.

Cipher Class
Seeing the psion cipher in this game is great.

Dyrwood - how is it pronounced?
Hiro Protagonist II replied to FearMonkey's topic in Pillars of Eternity: General Discussion (NO SPOILERS)That's what I thought it was.

Hiro Protagonist II replied to FearMonkey's topic in Pillars of Eternity: General Discussion (NO SPOILERS)How about Hurr Durr-wood.

Hiro Protagonist II replied to norolim's topic in Pillars of Eternity: General Discussion (NO SPOILERS)I won't be supporting this. I don't particularly like the old school First Person perspective in rpgs. I've always liked the isometric view of seeing my players and the enemy on the screen at once.

Would you like the boxed versions of P:E to be cardboard or plastic?
Hiro Protagonist II replied to theADOLESCENT's topic in Pillars of Eternity: General Discussion (NO SPOILERS)Cardboard Box.

stick to your guns, devs
Hiro Protagonist II replied to Benison's topic in Pillars of Eternity: General Discussion (NO SPOILERS)Character protraits and actual gameplay characters don't have to be exactly the same. You can have the new portrait showing her new armour. The gameplay avatar will most likely have some female features to distinguish her from the male companions.

[Merged] Cooldown Thread
If the time spent in walking back to the campsite/resting is less time than Standing-Still spamming waiting for the cool downs to come back, then I'll take the former. If the cool downs are quicker, then I'll take the cool downs and go make a cup of tea or do something else in that time. The difference between the two is that in the former, I'm playing the game to go back to town and rest, in the latter I'm not playing the game at all to get my cool downs back. There should be some danger or consequence when going back to town within the game. There are no consequences when Standing-Still spamming since there would probably be no timed quests or urgency to move forward.

Level scaling confirmed
Hiro Protagonist II replied to Valorian's topic in Pillars of Eternity: General Discussion (NO SPOILERS)This definitely needs to be challenged. In BG1, if I went to the Sirine/Golem Cave to get the Con Tome at level 1, then I'm likely to get killed. If I go at level 5, the fight is going to be challenging. If I go at level 8, it will be easier. That's the sort of difficulty I would expect from Project Eternity. If there's any scaling, then I would expect certain monsters to be scaled. Not going back near the start when I'm level 10 and finding a goblin that's also the same level as me.

Beta Questions
Hiro Protagonist II replied to Grumpy Old Guts's topic in Pillars of Eternity: General Discussion (NO SPOILERS)I'd like to see it as a prologue instead of the actual game and the Character creation tool would be good as well.
