Guest Posted March 13, 2018 Posted March 13, 2018 Per Eurogamer. Reliable? http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2018-03-13-pillars-of-eternity-2-deadfire-release-delayed-a-month
Juodas Varnas Posted March 13, 2018 Posted March 13, 2018 First Katrina leaves, now this? IT'S ALL FALLING APART, MAN! I'm freakin' out! 3
Guest Posted March 13, 2018 Posted March 13, 2018 Well, to be honest, I’ve been expecting this since Katrina’s announcement. Just trying to figure out whether or not it’s legit.
huang Posted March 13, 2018 Posted March 13, 2018 (edited) Well the stores like GOG already show May as the new date, so... https://www.gog.com/game/pillars_of_eternity_ii_deadfire https://i.imgur.com/F3laoR6.jpg Edited March 13, 2018 by huang
Enoch Posted March 13, 2018 Posted March 13, 2018 Well, to be honest, I’ve been expecting this since Katrina’s announcement. Just trying to figure out whether or not it’s legit. Nothing on the official twitter feeds yet, but the Eurogamer article has quotes it's attributing to Obsidian. They're a reputable enough publication not to have just made it up. Could be a case where they ran something before they were "supposed to," though. That said, I don't really see how the departure of 1 producer (whose portfolio, IIRC, included managing the art team and backer-related stuff) has much to do with the overall project schedule. I doubt this kind of staffing change would even have been noticed by fans had she not also picked up a public-facing role in the various update videos. 4
Ethics Gradient Posted March 13, 2018 Posted March 13, 2018 Kotaku just put up an article as well: Pillars of Eternity II: Deadfire has been delayed until May 8
bleedthefreak Posted March 13, 2018 Posted March 13, 2018 Kotaku just put up an article as well: Pillars of Eternity II: Deadfire has been delayed until May 8 "Incorporate feedback from the beta" makes me think they are giving us another beta update in order to gather said feedback (just because they would have already gathered all the feedback from the last version, I would have thought). 2
gyanacheak86 Posted March 13, 2018 Posted March 13, 2018 Welp, time to email my boss and try to frantically reschedule my week off from April to May... 10
kierun Posted March 13, 2018 Posted March 13, 2018 I, for one, do not mind. I would rather Obsidian took their time rather than release something shoddy. 11 Nescire autem quid ante quam natus sis acciderit, id est semper esse puerum.

morhilane Posted March 13, 2018 Posted March 13, 2018 (edited) Josh talked about been deep in bug fixing a few days ago and I had a hunch the game was going to be delayed after I read that. Also, the lack of beta 4 when they were making major changes here and there always looked risky to me. Also, yeah! Now I have enough time to finish the games I started since January I haven't finished yet before I switch to other game after a few weeks...>.> I have a problem.

Enduin Posted March 13, 2018 Posted March 13, 2018 You gotta do what you gotta do. One month isn't a huge amount of time, but likely time enough to square away some nagging issues with balance and bugs. If that means getting another Beta out to field player feedback great, but if not I'm fine with them just spending the time doing things internally and just providing us with some streams. 1
Ethics Gradient Posted March 13, 2018 Posted March 13, 2018 Hey. It's not all bad. I can't be the only pillars fan that embarrassingly hasn't finished the original yet.... 27
Gregorovitch Posted March 13, 2018 Posted March 13, 2018 It will be ready when it's ready. I want to play it for the first time when it's ready. I'm totally OK with Obsidian taking as much time as they need to make it ready. 3

Get it right. 1 Let's Play: Icewind Dale Ironman (Complete) Let's Play: Icewind Dale II Ironman (Complete) Let's Play: Divinity II (Complete) Let's Play: Baldur's Gate Trilogy Ironman - BG1 (Complete) Let's Play: Baldur's Gate Trilogy Ironman - BG2 (In Progress)
rothamon81 Posted March 13, 2018 Posted March 13, 2018 (edited) Eh, no point in lamenting the inevitable. But what about a beta update? Seriously, Obsidian, a definitive statement is overdue. Edited March 13, 2018 by rothamon81
injurai Posted March 13, 2018 Posted March 13, 2018 This is about when I had originally expected it. Also fantastic because I will be graduated by then!!! Hurray! 6
Elkor_Alish Posted March 13, 2018 Posted March 13, 2018 Well, I am going to be flying out as of May 1 so I may not get to play it for another year or so now, but at least I can look forward a fully patched and stable experience when I get to it 2
MountainTiger Posted March 13, 2018 Posted March 13, 2018 Good, deconflicts April gaming time with the Battletech release and should improve the day 1 experience. 1
Gfted1 Posted March 13, 2018 Posted March 13, 2018 Eh, this is probably because they want to switch back to Might and write more in depth romances. *runs* 6 "I'm your biggest fan, Ill follow you until you love me, Papa"
MountainTiger Posted March 13, 2018 Posted March 13, 2018 Eh, this is probably because they want to switch back to Might and write more in depth romances. *runs* They're trying a new mix between Might and Resolve, called Right 14
Enduin Posted March 13, 2018 Posted March 13, 2018 Eh, this is probably because they want to switch back to Might and write more in depth romances. *runs* I now expect story book sex scenes that feature woodcut art and skill checks. 13
