Not a perfect game but very good

The story itself is a confusing mess at first, the problem is that everyone talks to you like you know everything, despite being an outsider.Because most of it is religious telltale it really makes the player interpretate parts of the story, if its true or not, on their own. Cant complain about the story really. Quests are often repetetive. But there arent many. While there are many classes, there are some races which give you traits, while some races are in my opinion statistically wise complete crap. The equipments are rather strange. Basically there are no real better crafted items than others, there are just enchanted once and some which arent. Only annoying is that you need ingredients to enchant items, but its hard to find some of them even for some basic enchantments. Later on i had so much money but couldnt buy anything with it because i already had better gear than the store would sell, but still couldnt buy any ingredients. But the variety of equipment is huge, there are even flintlock pistols. But the freedom to create a character in this game is really unique. Other game have dump stats that definetly need to be maxed. As an example if you take a berserker, you usually would dump all points on strength,health and rest on agillity or something? In this game even intelligence is really important for a berserker because it helps with his warcries. Really good idea, the skilling system is one of the best ive ever seen in videogames. One one hand you got a huge amount of skills and abillities to pick from, on the other hand some are so terribly useless. I had a couple of bugs in the game, none gamebreaking i couldnt finish one side quests tough that was a real buzzkill but overall its almost bug free, my second playtrough had none. Overall i definetly had my fun with this game some minor flaws i mentioned with bugs, character creation,quests and enchanment and abillities really kills that 5/5 i would have given it.

when nostalgia turns to new fond memory

I came to this after playing Tyranny and enjoying it. Pillars of Eternity gave me over 90 hours of gameplay with a level of immersion I haven't felt since I played Neverwinter Nights years ago. It's a true gem that grabs your attention with a twinkle of nostalgia and feeds it with the warmth of good storytelling that you only feel as a child when everything is new and unexplored. I also feel that I should mention having played the entire game on Linux and not regretting it. :)

What's Old Is New Again

I came away very impressed with Pillars of Eternity and it is a superb revival of that old CRPG top down style. I think the game's greatest accomplishment is in how it borrows the best of games like Baldur's Gate, Planescape, and Icewind Dale while still being its own worthwhile endeavor. Obsidian created an interesting world in this game that I was dying to learn more about and I read everything I got my hands on. The combat is dynamic, methodical, and challenging with loads of great dungeons to traverse.

It reminded me of Kreia

Kreia in KOTOR II was the reason I fell in love with Obsidian. I felt closer to her than any other video game character I have encountered. She was more than a teacher. She was a mother. It sounds hammy, but some of you know what I mean. In PoE, there is a companion called Durance, by many accounts an obnoxious character. Even I admit he can be that. There is a quest called Cinders of Faith. One dialogue choice in this quest would let you either gain an "extraordinary" amount of reputation with Defiance Bay or lose a "moderate" amount. I picked the choice that felt right to me and lost reputation. I was feeling dejected until Durance said... For the readers who are like me, I'll let you discover that part yourself. After I read what Durance said, I felt vindicated and took the reputation loss as a point of pride. Then I found something interesting. Did you know PoE tracks reputation on two separate scales? When you "lose" reputation, it doesn't cancel out the reputation you gained. You can be simultaneous loved and hated by someone. This was the moment that I began to appreciate PoE. Even after playing several dozen hours, PoE did not pick up for me. I felt like the narrative was too meandering and the combat too quirky. It felt like tea that was neither too hot nor too cold yet also not just right. It felt... off in a way I could not define. Then it hit me. This is how I felt about all Obsidian games, including KOTOR II, until that one moment when the spirit of the game resonated with me. If you love Kreia like I do, you know that moment, at the end. It's the moment when you realize the greatest brilliance of Obsidian is how their games unapologetically reaches for the human condition, that indescribable mess that is at once beautiful and grotesque. There is no black and white or even nuance you can hang on to, only the moment when you say, "Exactly." If my review made sense to you, you will not be disappointed by Pillars of Eternity.

Mediocre

I really wanted this to be like a modern Baldur's Gate. However, I struggled to push myself to finish it. I did eventually get through it but I was massively underwhelmed. The items and loot were generic and uninteresting, the characters and lore weren't captivating, and the battle system felt overly confusing to understand, but simple in scope for tactics.
