RPGCodex Review #1 - Hŵrpa Dwrp
Namutree replied to Sensuki's topic in Pillars of Eternity: General Discussion (NO SPOILERS)
This was my experience as well. -
So is this game actually good?

Don't forget the bounty hunters that attack you at every turn. Some one is gunning for your life in BG1, and there's good reason for the player to want to know who. -
Oh not much. They just made animals that slaughtered thousands of Polish (including some of my family) and Jewish people their national heroes. Man, that sucks. When did this happen?

Nashkel sure, but not Spellhold. They did, and the plot to BG1/BG2 is decent (too cliche), but not a turd. Two decent stories told well. That what we got in BG1/BG2. In PoE what we get is a good story told somewhat poorly. You haven't finished the story so you should reserve judgement about how good PoE's story is. There is nothing wrong with Irenicus' writing. Even a mediocre actor could have made Irenicus seem cool; because Irenicus is cool. He had great writing. -
Why hate being a watcher?

Good luck finding Thanos. Even if you do, how will you deal with the infinity gauntlet? -
Shots fired! Shots miss!

I don't see that many people claiming the BG games had such awesome writing. I think the OE drone squad just likes to bring it up a lot because it helps to distract from everything else BG2 clearly beats PoE at. I'm sure you've heard this before, but it's unfair to compare PoE to BG2. Better to compare it to BG1. Why is it unfair ? BG1 was made by a heap of noobs who had never before made a game. Why should that be the comparison point ? The reasoning is that BG2 already had an established engine to work with and improve on. BG1 however, was made from scratch like PoE. -

Baldurs Gate didn't have a good story, but it was well executed. I've covered this before actually if you can find my rantings about it. To keep it brief; Bioware did a good job of making the player want to resolve the story by making the villains mess with you personally. PoE has a little bit of that, but not enough. -
But its been growing. Well, growing is never good. Can't believe you're waiting three weeks.

Many of the people critical of the game still like it. They are often discussing what's wrong with the game to help identify how the game can be improved in the expansion. There is after all, little reason to discuss what's working well. I personally really like PoE, but I could see why some one could see many of my statements and think that I hate it. I've said it before, and I'll say it again: PoE is a 4/5. That's a good game. Looking forward to the expansion. -
You don't have cancer. Probably. Hopefully. I have a mark like that too actually. Mine's bigger though.

Struggling to finish

It hardly makes a difference. -
Great character. I want to comment on her personality and beliefs, but then I'd end up ruining the thread. Do eeeeeet. There's no use having a thread just for posting stuff no-one ever talks about or comments on. Then it's just another fanfic thread and I loathe fanfic threads. It's not that talking about her would ruin the thread; it's what I'd say.
