People are finishing the fifth playthrough by now. It's a bit contradictory saying that no major issues are addressed and then asking them for the expansion. Most probaby, those issues are not addressed yet because they put a big chunk of their team to work on the expansion (i'd prefer it was the other way around, honestly). But anyway, I wouldn't hope the expansion to be released at least until christmas (best case scenario). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lolwut Do not get me wrong, I'm not crazy or stupid. I am very happy that the game is being corrected. You may have missed it, but the expansion was promised to shortly after the game's release. HERE. Speaking of expansions, can you give us any details on what might be coming in the future? Feargus Urquhart: Sure. So, with the Kickstarter we announced that we were going to do an expansion, and so how we're approaching that is to actually do the expansion in two parts, and have one part out sooner than the other part. The idea being that people are really enjoying Pillars right now and they're going to get finished their first or second playthrough within in the next two weeks, a month, something like that. And so, we definitely want there to be content for them to enjoy and I think we're going to be talking about that pretty soon. I don't think we've released anything specifically, but it really ends up being this concept of this story that expands parts of what you would see in those sort of old school expansions we made for Icewind Dale and Baldur's Gate. So not just these three, four hour downloadable DLCs, but definitely big chunks of a story and a new hub to go to and things like that. So that's kind of how we're really approaching it, like we've done with Eternity throughout is this idea of, these games kind of went away but not for a reason they should have. The industry shifted to so much console with this idea that PC wasn't so much of a gaming platform, which I know no one thinks that anymore. So, back then when you got an expansion you got this meaty thing with hours and hours of gameplay. And that's really what we're trying to do. So, while we're splitting it in two, it is like one continual story that people get to play. Also I like to see the correction of bugs that are happening and are being reported repeatedly, but completely ignored. ICYMI: http://forums.obsidian.net/topic/79258-common-recurring-bug-list-patch-105/ When I complain and ask for expansion, do not mean to developers leave the corrections and deliver me more things to do in the game. I want them to correct in the expansion things that were unacceptable in the game and I have hope that will be corrected with the expansion: stronghold, hearts, forges, labs, crafting and enchanting. I also think that class corrections must occur after correcting the AI problems. But, hey, I´m just a player. So, yes, I´m serious.

0 Gromnir Posted May 23, 2015 Share Posted May 23, 2015 1.05 was supposed to be a major patch insofar as balancing concerns. Gromnir's assumption were that 1.06 were gonna be far more limited and more focused on eradicating some o' the more persistent bugs. and in all honesty, given the absence o' a respec feature, the rebalancing with each patch is actually a bit annoying to us. rebalance is swell and all, but if to take advantage o' such rebalancing we must needs restart the game, we is a bit underwhelmed by such changes. there is more than a few persistent bugs that has lingered for a couple months and we would personal prefer to see at least one patch dedicated to fixes rather than improvements and rebalancing. as for the expansion, it's only been 2 months since the release o' the game. many significant issues have been addressed since late march. in fact, every patch has resulted in at least a few folks complaining that _________ was nerfed. pretending that the obsidians has not made significant changes to the game mechanics in a relative short period o' time is delusional. 'course this is one o' those conflicts wherein perception and reality are at odds. if a particular player does not get his issues addressed, he will fume and rage that obsidian is ignoring the fanbase and/or being lackadaisical in fixing know poe problems. regardless o' how much obsidian does, if those issues of concern to bob or roy or other folks is not addressed, then obsidian is clearly no doing their job, right? *snort* HA!

0 elmaoroflson Posted May 26, 2015 Share Posted May 26, 2015 I'm still on my first playthrough because of the game-breaking bug where Azo never shows up in the Sanitarium. I've actually shelved the game for now, because I can't do anything else (completed every task/quest/bounty that I could). I was hoping to see this bug fixed so I could move on to Act 3.

0 h_ninja Posted May 26, 2015 Share Posted May 26, 2015 Any plans to allow the Paladin's Liberating Exhortation to target Charmed, Dominated, and Confused allies? Currently you can't target any friendly effects on turned allies, and since Liberating Exhortation is single target.. I specifically made a Paladin for my second playthrough as a Goldpact Knight just to counter charm enemies.. got the ability just to find out it doesn't work! This is especially confusing since the Goldpacts have a talent that increases resistance to those effects. Those are really the only two counters to charm in the game.. you can fight Dank Spores at level 3, but you can't cast Prayer against Treachery until level 11! Please note that the cleric spell Suppress Affliction does suppress these effects. Since Liberating Exhortation seems to be a single target version of the same spell, and Exhortations are supposed to be powerful effects on their own, I don't see why this shouldn't work. As a side note, any plans for Cleric/Paladin Reputations to work off the main character's Reputations? Currently it's almost pointless to have a Paladin as a groupmate, their saves aren't too special if they aren't powered up by a high Reputation. Cleric is less affected, but still an issue. Thanks!

0 RiderJohnny Posted May 27, 2015 Share Posted May 27, 2015 I really don`t see the point in balancing talents like paladin auras, that are not working as intended in the first place. Area of effect bugs and enemies remaining buffed after charmed effect wears off are not adressed, but devs somehow thought that nerfing Zealous Endurance would be a nice thing. Also, any word from the devs, about why are some major issues being ignored, would be greatly appreciated - are they unfixable, unfixable atm, or not being worked on at all. Don`t get me wrong, I love this game, but the state it has been released in, and major bugs throughout, are keeping it from being a true masterpiece. Really hope all the issues will be fixed in the foreseeable future, `till then i`m gonna shelf it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
