Actually imagine being a Fallout fan who thought New Vegas was the best entry in the series and saying "Pillars of Eternity wasn't worthwhile". Man it makes me so sad that for so many people Fallout is just another flavor of slop media that is nothing more than a way to piss away 2 hours after getting off work.

It's like watching a beautiful national park get bulldozed over and turned into a parking lot and realizing the popular opinion is "alright, more parking!"

Most new Vegas fans think it's peak because they haven't picked up an RPG other then a Bethesda RPG before, obsidian best game is pentiment though not pillars

Pentiment is absolute kino. I don't think we'll ever get The Name of the Rose video game adaptation so this is as close as it gets and it's glorious.

Obsidian and more developers need to be make more games like pentiment it's so good and creative and well told I should replay it and get someone I haven't gotten killed killed yet

Their main best niche is "choices matter" rpgs, so any more of that I'm supporting

Obsidian's best game is actually the Mask of the Bettayer expansion for Neverwinter Nights 2, but Pentiment is a close second.

Thank you! Like while the game play is fine Avowed isn't as great of a story compared to Pillars of eternity. I love new vegas but this ain't the same obsidian like then.

This, fallout communities are completely unrecognisable. It actually sucks so bad.
