Heijoushin Posted April 22, 2015 Share Posted April 22, 2015 Not really. It's pretty clear when you're going into the final dungeon. Just make time for Endless Paths before that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Terikan Posted April 22, 2015 Author Share Posted April 22, 2015 It's weird how so many people feel the need to jump in and say the same thing. (not really, it's actually predictable) But in a game that has content like this, it's typical to have an aftergame where it's available. No notification that said aftergame doesn't exist. When I said 'odd design choice', I was being polite. It's actually stupid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
b0rsuk Posted April 22, 2015 Share Posted April 22, 2015 The game automatically saves right before the endgame (the point of no return). The save is clearly labeled as "PRE-ENDGAME". There is no issue. 1 Character backgrounds explored (Callisca) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rosveen Posted April 22, 2015 Share Posted April 22, 2015 (edited) The game automatically saves right before the endgame (the point of no return). The save is clearly labeled as "PRE-ENDGAME". There is no issue. Right, but who looks at names of autosaves? I didn't even know I had a save labeled "endgame" until I read your post. Of course, I knew that an IE-style game with ending slides and all would end with the main quest, so I did everything before jumping in the pit. That said, I think story-wise Pillars is well-suited for an open ending. Act 3 puts a lot of pressure on you, stopping Thaos should be the priority, but instead you do everything but chasing him: insignificant Twin Elms side quests, a bunch of bounties and a whole expedition to a giant dungeon. Uhm, the Master Below has been there for years, isn't it just a tad more important to save thousands of souls about to be sacrificed? I can go on an adventure when more pressing issues are taken care of. Admittedly, doing that would interfere with the ending slides.

Valmy Posted April 22, 2015 Share Posted April 22, 2015 When I said 'odd design choice', I was being polite. It's actually stupid. Maybe. But post finish play is kind of rare isn't it? I mean outside of the Elder Scrolls series. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arkh`Cthuul Posted April 22, 2015 Share Posted April 22, 2015 Or Mass Effect 2. Or a few other Games. But yeah, its rare. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luckmann Posted April 22, 2015 Share Posted April 22, 2015 [...] When I said 'odd design choice', I was being polite. It's actually stupid. Not at all, it actually makes perfect sense. What is stupid is the whole "play after finishing the game"-concept. It's ridiculous into the extremes that you'd keep playing after all the effects of the game has taken effect.

So there actually is a reason to finish the main quest first. Character backgrounds explored (Callisca) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm genuinely curious, I don't see the benefit, especially in a game which doesn't allow us to name saves. I load the game through Continue 99% of time. I usually disable autosaves in games, I didn't in Pillars because it requires a mod, but even so, I don't pay attention to them. I made a manual save before the point of no return. I checked my backup folder and the save is actually called "noreturnsave", not "pre-endgame". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flyingsaucers Posted April 22, 2015 Share Posted April 22, 2015 The issue isn't that the Autosave is named, it's that there's no reason not to allow us to go back into the gameworld and finish up quests/loose ends after the final battle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elerond Posted April 22, 2015 Share Posted April 22, 2015 The issue isn't that the Autosave is named, it's that there's no reason not to allow us to go back into the gameworld and finish up quests/loose ends after the final battle. Except that it would not work well with end sequences slides which many of those lose ends have effects. So letting you do them after you have seen them would be just remove lots of consequences from doing those things and of course world is changed quite lot when you finally get back on surface. So they would need to ignore events that happen in Dyrwood after you come out from Sun in Shadow and how people react in the fact that there isn't any more hollowborn children and maybe how some of them got their souls back or they would need to write quite lot more reactivity so that people can go see their handiwork. Where we get in the actual point, they have decided to give you than PRE-ENDGAME save because they don't want you to travel in world that don't have any reactivity towards things that happened in Sun in Shadow and they don't have resources to spare to write such reactivity in the game.

Namutree Posted April 22, 2015 Share Posted April 22, 2015 You have to send me all your earthly possessions. That's how the PoE post game works. Send Namutree your money and objects of value to continue playing. It's in the manual. Did you even read it? "Good thing I don't heal my characters or they'd be really hurt." Is not something I should ever be thinking. I use blue text when I'm being sarcastic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
