June 20, 201411 yr http://www.shacknews.com/article/85055/pillars-of-eternity-preview-to-infinity-and-beyond The author seems to think that RTwP is a unique feature not seen in classic RPGs???
June 20, 201411 yr Huh, I hadn't seen this before: Godlike characters will receive certain boosts, but will be ineligible to wear garments/armors or receive any of those stat buffs.

June 20, 201411 yr The author seems to think that RTwP is a unique feature not seen in classic RPGs??? A lot of the journalists have no idea what RtWP is. Here's why:
June 20, 201411 yr Any chance we'll see the demo that was presented at E3? Edited June 20, 201411 yr by Zeckul
June 20, 201411 yr None. Obsidian needs to polish their animations/FX to an acceptable level before we see them Edited June 20, 201411 yr by Sensuki
June 20, 201411 yr This could be great as long it is not like in other games when suddenly everyone knows what you did. Even when you come into a whole new town in which no one heard of you before I dunno. I think that sometimes that's the price you pay for some cool reactivity. Yeah, it's a shortcut, but it's necessary. While having each individual react to you is possible, it's a lot of hard work. At the end of the day, they need to do what works best for this game. And in the case of a faction system, this type of reputation system works great.
June 20, 201411 yr long German Preview(with some mistakes): http://www.pcgames.de/Pillars-of-Eternity-PC-256319/News/Pillars-of-Eternity-in-der-E3-Vorschau-1125801/ They have problems to understand the mechanics of PoE(They say that you need stamina or mana to use abilities, both is wrong). new info tidbits: pop up menu for enemies with information like health, defenses, dt etc. skuldr were enemies in the cave There is a xaurip in the ruin(He was described as xaurip imp) there are three ways to escape the ruin: solve floor puzzle destroy a wall(e.g. with items or with enough might) get the help of the xaurip ( You must get him some food) Edited June 20, 201411 yr by Prometheus
June 20, 201411 yr I think I know less now than before e3. The injustice must end! Sign the petition and Free the Krug!
June 20, 201411 yr I think I know less now than before e3. Crap... they accidentally used that Anti-matter font! O_O Should we not start with some Ipelagos, or at least some Greater Ipelagos, before tackling a named Arch Ipelago? 6_u
June 21, 201411 yr http://nerdreactor.com/2014/06/20/e3-2014-obsidians-pillars-of-eternity/ I just noticed something about that review that I didn't notice before. Two of those pictures are actually one big picture taken at different times of the day. Edited June 21, 201411 yr by Hiro Protagonist II
June 21, 201411 yr Huh, I hadn't seen this before: Godlike characters will receive certain boosts, but will be ineligible to wear garments/armors or receive any of those stat buffs. I know, my godlike dark paladin just about had a godlike heart attack at the thought of no armor. I haven't confirmed it, but surely that statement isn't entirely true. All Stop. On Screen.

I know, my godlike dark paladin just about had a godlike heart attack at the thought of no armor. I haven't confirmed it, but surely that statement isn't entirely true. IRRC, it is a certain piece of equipment. For instance, Death Godlikes can't wear helmets.

June 21, 201411 yr That last German preview suggests that fighters can enchant their weapons with an ability called "Ghost Blades". That might be the thing that got called "Ghost Bleach" in the other German preview.

June 21, 201411 yr I just realised what those 6 crystal pillars are at the camp from the start of the game. The choices you make in the game leads to one of the endings where your party is transported back in time and you and your party members are locked in a crystal each, fully aware but can only watch as you see your party arrive at the start of the adventure.
June 21, 201411 yr I know, my godlike dark paladin just about had a godlike heart attack at the thought of no armor. If your dark paladin still possesses a heart, you're doing it wrong.

This is the QUESSSST thaaattttt doeeeesss-NNNNN'T ennnnnnnd! Yes it goes onnnn annnnnd onnnn myyyy friieeeenndd! Should we not start with some Ipelagos, or at least some Greater Ipelagos, before tackling a named Arch Ipelago? 6_u
June 21, 201411 yr I adjusted the brightness as the original screen shots were quite dark. Brighter. And even more brighter. Edited June 21, 201411 yr by Hiro Protagonist II
June 21, 201411 yr The author seems to think that RTwP is a unique feature not seen in classic RPGs??? A lot of the journalists have no idea what RtWP is. Here's why: What is the other game with RTwP?
June 21, 201411 yr Games.cz writeup is up: http://games.tiscali.cz/prvni-dojmy/e3-dojmy-pillars-of-eternity-plynule-navaze-na-izometricka-rpg-ze-stare-skoly-239638 This is one of the best (if not the best) writeups from E3. They seem to get all of the details correct and remember more stuff than most of the journalists (barring character names).
