From the makers of kotor 2, fallout new vegas, and pillars of eternity
I am genuinely more hyped for this than Starfield
As a fans of pillars of eternity I know that this is going to be developed in such a way to be a bit more mainstream and get more of that support so I’m tempering my reservations, but I’m still excited to get back into this fascinating universe.
I realize Obsidian isn’t known for visual masterpieces, but this looks extremely dated. The original teaser also had a much darker feel to it than this trailer. Seems a lot more colorful than I expected.
It’ll be on Game Pass, so I’ll probably check it out anyway, but this kind of dampened my expectations by a lot.
Colour is good. Wasting our 4K/HDR screens on gray and browns is a waste.
I don’t disagree, but there are ways to use color without making everything shiny. If everything pops, nothing does, and for me personally that just felt like a little much.
Obviously this might just be the trailer and we’ll have to wait and see what it actually looks like, but to me it feels a little like they’re trying to make up for poor texture quality by making everything 50% brighter and more saturated.
I think maybe I still have PTSD from the PS360 era that makes me defend it’s use so much, lol
Looks neat, we’ll see where it goes. Character design looks a bit poor though, especially the sorcerer/lich thing (design and animation looks like a random MMORPG)
Yeah ok I’m down with this.
Finally! I’ve been checking like every month or two for 3 years since the announcement
Looks good, but I’m excited to see more game-play details sometime next year. At least there’s some news on the game again finally though
