A gaming community free from the hype and oversaturation of current releases, catering to gamers who wait at least 12 months after release to play a game. Whether it's price, waiting for bugs/issues to be patched, DLC to be released, don't meet the system requirements, or just haven't had the time to keep up with the latest releases.

I've been replaying Pillars of Eternity II - in fact I have the tavern music stuck in my head right now. Mostly I just need some CRPG gameplay, so I'm not doing anything wildly different with my character this time around. Maybe I should do an evil run...
Knowing how the ending works, I'm still not sure which faction to go with.
Starting deadfire today :)
The tone is much less dour than the first one, and I think it does a better job introducing the world. It's still a lot to take in, but all of the text has links you can click on that explain anything you don't recognize.
I just started the first one, took me a few tries to really get into it but I'm enjoying it a lot now. I feel like it's a little bit harder to get into all the lore compared to something like dragon age or elder scrolls. But the gameplay is amazing
Yeah, my main complaint with PoE 1 is the way it bludgeons you with lore. The writers are so excited to show off this massive world they've invented, they just aren't very artful about it.
