Pillars of Eternity (Original game & PoE 2: Deadfire)

Yes, totally. I am a huge fan of the Baldur's Gate saga and also of Icewind Dale I & II, and I have found Pillars of Eternity to be a modernized descendant of those games. Couple of things are different and obviously they have their very own somewhat more complex rule set, but it works and feels very familiar to anyone who played the round based infinity games. 

What I did not like too much were the characters, they simply didn't click for me. They all have their own unique back story and companion quests but I simply didn't like any of them, they felt a bit dull, and so was the antagonist. There was no Minsc, Edwin, Jaheira or Irenicus. Also the voice acting in general was a little disappointing. Still, I'd give the game a solid 85 of 100 points.
 
And don't forget their next Pillars of Eternity, Deadfire, is just around the corner.


BTW; I liked Tyranny quite a bit though, I hope some of its good stuff bleeds into Deadifre. 

I want Tyranny so bad. I read the good and the bad about it, watched gameplay, ect. Sadly, it's only on PC and my system isn't geared for games. If I get a new system, I'll definitely buy it.

Haha, one day good sir. I want a powerhouse gaming PC so bad. I will get the best possible when I do.

That's usually the way to do it.  Get the best possible 'thing' you can afford at the time, and it will - usually - serve you better and longer.

The trick is knowing what you can actually 'afford' 

They just announced that Deadfire is coming out on April 3rd! Which is pretty much perfect for me, since I want to do one more perfect run of the first game and have some other games to wrap up first.

Yeah, I certainly felt a rather high degree of attrition with the first game. The DOS1 to DOS2 comparison is a good one, I'd certainly be happy if they managed a comparable improvement.
