I remember playing this game when it first came out. It was amazing when I played it as a kid, and it's just as amazing now. (I don't know if it's for everyone when they first start up the GOG version, but some of you might notice the game starting at super-fast speed--just tone it down to Game Speed 80% in the options at the top of the in-game screen and you'll be back to the game's "normal" speed. Or play it super fast! Be the fastest Pharaoh alive! Lol!)
Before Baldur's Gate 3 came bursting onto the scene, Pillars of Eternity was the first game in a long long while I saw that was a genuine modern return to the awesomeness of classic CRPGs. But it's more than just having a party of cool adventurers going about on a mystical fantasy adventure--you even get a stronghold! If you enjoyed Baldur's Gate 3, Icewind Dale, or Neverwinter Nights--be sure to experience Pillars of Eternity! (And while you're at it, get Pillars of Eternity II and Tyranny)
