Pillars of Eternity was my first real cRPG, and it took me several tries to get into it. However, after starting a game and finally sticking with it, I can say this was a great game and an enjoyable RPG, with a few flaws. The good: The writing, setting, story, and characters are fantastic as you would expect from Obsidian. While many people seem to have an issue with the RTWP combat, I found it mostly enjoyable. Overall, if you let this game get its narrative hooks into you, you're in for quite a treat. As for the bad: While I found the combat enjoyable enough, there was A LOT of it - too much in some areas, in my opinion. On top of that, on the hard difficulty (and above), you need to treat almost every encounter as a serious threat. So there's a lot of combat that you have meticiously micro-manage. While this is alleviated on the normal difficult, many combats become less enjoyable because they require very little thought. It's an interesting conundrum - do I spend 40 of my 60 hours with this game micro-managing fights, or do I sleepwalk through fights and get bored with the combat? Also, while the game has a mostly fantastic presentation there are certain fights where it can be a little difficult to actually tell what is happening. The DLC did not feel particulary well integrated into the game. Story-wise, the dlc's writing is at a similar level as to the rest of the game. However, there is an issue with ludonarrative dissonance depending on when you decide to do the DLC, and it's not very clear as to when you are expected to do the dlc along the main quest. Additionally, the dlc throws off the balance of the rest of the game. This can be alleviated with level scaling, but I wish the game was balanced with the dlc in mind. Finally, there are bugs. Again, as to be expected with Obsidian. They are frustrating when they crop up, but not enough to ruin enjoyment. Many can be solved by a reload (which takes a while with the loading screens).
