Still a better idea than programmer voice actors.

When I backed Eternity, I thought the Endless Paths were going to be some end-game deal where, just before the final boss, you can go to the Optional Dungeon(breeding the right kind of chocobo first), fight all the hardest mosters, and at the bottom of the dungeon is an encounter that's harder than the actual end boss. I don't know what to think of the version we're actually getting. Since it's apparently really big, chewing off piece by piece would make the whole thing easier to digest, but it takes away from the epic feeling if it's not something you seriously prepare for beforehand and then finish in one big struggle.

I'm more open to the wilderness than the new characters. In PS:T, it was agonizing for me to choose whether or not to drop someone to bring Vhailor or Nordom along. Since there are already more than five companions, any more would just add to the frustration.

I bet it's going to be a one-shot comic book spinoff of Arcanum. That's the only possibility I can think of.

Eternity's take on Beholders?

Look, I know you're the leader and all, no problem with that, but I just can't trust you. No, look, I can't trust you, I can't trust Bastila, I can't trust anyone! Alright. Fine! Let's just... let's just get this over with.
