Byeohazard Posted May 11, 2015 Share Posted May 11, 2015 I was wondering if there has been any discussion about being able to transfer our characters to the next game in the series (after the expansion(s) ) much like Wizardry 7 allowed with Wizardry 8. I know it would be down the road quite some time if it were to happen but thought it would be kind of neat. I will keep my save just in case ;-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Evange Posted May 11, 2015 Share Posted May 11, 2015 I don't think it's possible for now since the game didn't create a end game save when you finish it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anameforobsidian Posted May 11, 2015 Share Posted May 11, 2015 I don't think it's possible for now since the game didn't create a end game save when you finish it. It doesn't do it at the end, but it does create one right before the end. You just wouldn't know what your character did with one of the most important decisions in the game.

Guest Posted May 12, 2015 Share Posted May 12, 2015 I don't think it's possible for now since the game didn't create a end game save when you finish it. If you look inside your save folder, there is a save labeled gamecomplete.savegame. It isn't visible from the game menu, but I suspect that if they were to continue your PCs story in an expansion/sequel, it would be reading from that.

Bryy Posted May 12, 2015 Share Posted May 12, 2015 The real question is how will the expansions and sequel take into account the information. Because there is a lot of variation in the endings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rekombo Posted May 12, 2015 Share Posted May 12, 2015 (edited) It would be interesting if the character in the sequel is reincarnation of the character from original. Edited May 12, 2015 by Rekombo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted May 12, 2015 Share Posted May 12, 2015 Josh mentioned that PoE would be a mid-level adventure in order to allow for sequels without having to meddle with prestige classes. I might not be too surprised if Part 3 starts us with a new character (or another incarnation of this one), but I will be disappointed if the expansion or immediate sequel does.

So PoE does want to incorporate multi-classing (or at least special classing). Hm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted May 12, 2015 Share Posted May 12, 2015 Does or does not? I got the impression that he does not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Veynn Posted May 12, 2015 Share Posted May 12, 2015 (edited) "There is a long journey ahead of you." With this ending line alone, I think we're going to have a BG-style saga where you get to import/use your character in future expansions/sequels.

roller12 Posted May 12, 2015 Share Posted May 12, 2015 Likely will be possible to transfer characters to future NWN titles... hehe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bryy Posted May 12, 2015 Share Posted May 12, 2015 Well, there is that newfangled software coming out that lets you transfer your characters into completely other games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luckmann Posted May 12, 2015 Share Posted May 12, 2015 Personally, I'm still hoping that any sequels will be stand-alone and thus, no, not include character transfer.I could still see save transfers, though, in that some things that you did in the first game is alluded to in the sequels or other games in the series.

luzarius Posted May 12, 2015 Share Posted May 12, 2015 How hard is it to make a simple boolean flag accessible from one platform/software to another? Having trouble with the games combat on POTD, Trial of Iron? - Hurtin bomb droppin MONK - [MONK BUILD] - [CLICK HERE] - Think Rangers suck? You're wrong - [RANGER BUILD] + Tactics/Strategies - [CLICK HERE] - Fighter Heavy Tank - [FIGHTER BUILD] + Tactics/Strategies - [CLICK HERE] Despite what I may post, I'm a huge fan of Pillars of Eternity, it's one of my favorite RPG's. Anita Sarkeesian keeps Bioware's balls in a jar on her shelf. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VahnXIII Posted May 12, 2015 Share Posted May 12, 2015 I'm personally torn between wanting the ability to import my character into PoE2, or have PoE2 be a completely different adventure in a different country within Eora. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Faerunner Posted May 12, 2015 Share Posted May 12, 2015 If the story calls for it, I would be happy. If not, I guess I'd be just as happy making a new character. "Not I, though. Not I," said the hanging dwarf. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
