Pillars of Eternity pushed to "early 2015"

[Rufus]

To incorporate as much feedback as possible, polish every nook and cranny of the game, and make sure we don't ship a buggy game, Obsidian has decided to push the game's release into early next year. We are going to use the extra time to make Eternity shine for our backers, and a game that we were proud to call our own and would live up to your expectations.

Now it'll be competing with Witcher 3 for my attention.

shocking

Not exactly a surprise there, but the beta's pretty good, so I say let them have the time they feel they need.

I wonder who could have foreseen this?

[Phoenix Dark]

Does this mean The Doors of Stone will come out first

Good, because the beta is still absolute shit. It needs the extra time.

Because I spent 250 bucks funding this goddamn thing.

Uh-oh.

Some of the combat still needed a bit of tweaking and fixing, but that's really the only thing that I had any problem at all with.

"A bit." It's nigh unplayable. A ton of skills are still broken, sound issues about, they just fixed the camera zoom issue, the combat is horrible at this stage (way too fast, obscured action, companion AI not functioning in areas), the enemy pathfinding is completely non-functional.

I mean, I have never wanted a game to be good more than Pillars. I don't even need it to be BG2 good to be impressed. But I do need it to be a functional, fully fleshed out RPG. I still have faith, but the beta clearly showed it needs quite a bit more baking to be even above average.

This game will be a worthy successor to Pool of Radiance.

2015 is gonna be a busy year with all the RPGs coming out.
