It's a lot more vibrantly colored than I was expecting. Hard to form an opinion from the trailer alone, but where a lot of POE's strength comes from its story, reactivity, and companions this seems a lot more of an action-oriented solo game. I'm interested to see what it's like.
>be to Skyrim what New Vegas is to Fallout 3
Skyrim came out TWELVE YEARS AGO and people are still using it as a point of comparison. It's stuck in this weird place where everyone wants the next Skyrim but apparently everyone hates it.

>>28667>It's stuck in this weird place where everyone wants the next Skyrim but apparently everyone hates it.I mean its obvious what the problem is, right? You can see it with Fallout 3 vs New Vegas, and with massive modding community every Bethesda game spawn. They create a solid base for the game, but fail to fill it with interesting contend. And its not like anything else that would scratch that open world exploration RPG itch came out since Skyrim, or at least I cant think of anything.

>>28668Fallout 4 with mods is OK. Only a little more empty and bland than modded skyrim or modded fallout NV. Graphic fidelity of the base game is higher but still grey and kind of uncanny, like fallout 3 ig. The modding community is what makes any bethesda game. If youd get sick of them that's understandable. Certainly no innovation for nearly a decade and a half now.

>>28670Idk what to say about the trailer. Hope the depth of character bulding of Pillars of Eternity gets translated into action RPG format well. Played monk in those, none of the playstyles in the trailer seem to corespond to it, ill be dissapointed if that one gets removed.

>>28671Every time I think about giving Skyrim another try I remember that the last time I did, I have spend two weeks just getting all the mods working together, took me more hours than actually playing it.

>>28707>game world not being a single big map, but split into number of areas.So it's hub based like The Outer Worlds was. Some of the later areas were very undercooked in that game, hopefully they got more money and dev time with this one.

>>28711No its not. Some of it was fucking esoteric, like I had wildlife AI mod, so that animals behave like animals and not like video game enemies, which worked fine on its own, but broke hostile NPC AI (not wildlife, that worked fine, just "people" enemies) when used with other mods. After a whole day of experimenting, I figured out that the culprid was a texture mod. Like how? How does that cause anything?

>>28715That texture mod probably had a plugin that changed AI package in some way. Which one it was btw?
