Pillars Of Eternity 2.0 & Expansions Announced, Looking Great

By - | Views: 15,191
Pillars Of Eternity looks to be solving issues I had with it, and then some with the 2.0 release and expansion.

First of all, here's a look at the 2.0 update:

They are finally adding in party AI, something I firmly believe should have been in the game at release. I've not been able to play it due to the party having no AI, as I don't enjoy the micro management involved with lots of characters during a battle.

Then there's the first expansion White March, Part I:

The expansion will add additional character levels, spells, talents, areas, items, and companions to Pillars of Eternity.

How do you feel about this? I'm excited to have a more accessible game thanks to the 2.0 update.

No you're not alone, I think that games should have higher quality content and be shorter, instead of offering more watered down content. But there are many gamers out there with nothing else to do in their lives that complain very very loudly when they think games are too short, and so they perpetuate this cycle.

That said, I've only just scratched the surface of PoE and haven't yet played W2, so I'm looking forward to updated versions. In fact, I rarely play games on release as I find they usually get much better after a few rounds of patches and improvements.

I'm looking forward to this patch, this looks very nice and adds in some very needed things to the game. Finally some party AI and single character stealth!

"They are finally adding in party AI"

I hope that will be an optional feature, I enjoy micro management :D.
