Josh Sawyer's tweets and teasers, part 2

Can someone ask Josh if Soulbound weapons in Deadfire will be 'generic' weapon types, i.e. no matter what kind of weapon specialization/focus you pick, that feat will work with the Soulbound weapon?

 

That's how it was in POE but I'm worried they will change it for Deadfire.

 

Eh? Until you find the first inn or similar. That shouldn't be too long.

 

That took awhile in the first game. Fortunately I was somehow aware of that problem and plotted my head canon around it.

 

 

Yeah I always just told myself that I was meeting a group I already knew in gilded vale.

Given the change to weapon proficiencies I very much doubt they'll remain universal. Would you be able to use multiple proficiencies? Would you be able to use the shield or ranged proficiencies with a melee weapon?

 

Of course it's not a big deal. Proficiencies are nowhere near as important as Pillars' weapon foci. Many proficiencies don't even seen beneficial at all.

Uh...wut?

 

4 weeks til launch and the producer just left. I can’t help but feel that can’t be good.

That's ok, she accomplished her Job in a great fashion.

The Game being nearly done she's free to move on now, good luck to her.

 

Jack "the teeth licker" will miss her for sure...   

As we will too.

It doesn't have to be for bad reasons. Actually, it may well be that it's for very "gleeful" reasons. You know... she got married not long ago, she's young... I don't want spread rumors, but that would be a very good reason to leave a company - at least for a while.

 

Ooor she's just moving to Sweden.

 

Or she's a teeth model now.

I’m not well versed in gaming industry roles, but my understanding is that producers are essentially Agile project managers. Losing a PM right before a rollout isn’t insignificant.

I didn't say that it's insignificant.

I'm gonna blame the weird teeth fetishist on Katrina leaving. 

Bad thing.

 

Shef left the ship 3 weeks before release date.

 

Not a great indicator...

 

Obsidian what are you doing ?... It is not a KOTOR 3 story ? Right ?^^

Aww  - will miss Katrina's update vids - hope her new adventure is a good'un

Her video updates are great and that will be missed, but I doubt it's a sign of impending doom. Hopefully she'll do well with whatever she's moving onto.

Pack it up boys and girls looks like Pillars is cancelled.

Doom is upon us!

 

Apocalypse is nigh!

I request a refund of my backer participation. I feel a bad flow. It is not too late ! 

But puppet Katrina is still Obsidians, right? It can still be used for updates.

. . . that wouldn't be creepy.

You solved the puppet riddle. She's already voiced all future updates and puppets will just be added where required.

I can't tell if you're being serious here. Are you?

Look what I just found here...

More Footage of the Game :

Hm. No ship-to-ship combat. I guess some people will be happy with ship combat becoming melee. I'm a little sad, but it still looks cool.

Naval encounters have always had this option. Just because the footage showed one without the other doesn’t mean anything has changed.

Whoa is this right!!? How do I do it?

 

(I love the game, but can’t get in to the ship fighting system. Would much prefer to jump right into the stabbing and spell slinging)

Pretty sure it was always supposed to be that way, instead of fighting ship to ship, you just move in close and board.
