Do we know why the PR lady is leaving Obs? She was funny...

She at least liked Bethesda's post about them hiring people for their Austin studio. So maybe Bethesda Austin or like quite a few people from Obsidian... Blizzard. So pretty much it seems like a career move especially if you look at what Avellone posted about it. She probably got a better paying job while working on bigger & more well known projects.

Please, stop posting previews identical to the other 82 previews already shown.

There is nothing new and people is getting bored of reading the same things and looking the same screens over and over since the game announce.

I'm fairly certain these are new screenshots -

Maybe? But anyway, yeah, all of these previews are the same.

I guess he's in the same state I was when D:OS2 was close to release, when I read people's impressions I immediately recognized the signs of decline.

Yeah the only slight difference is that your reaction was based on factual information while his is based on delusion and interesting theories such as
maybe there's nothing but the backer content, makes sense if we consider that we haven't seen anything else
or
maybe the narration, companion interaction and faction system is shit, makes sense if we consider that Josh Sawyer.

Also, I suspect his dementia to be an elaborate troll.

Wait, POE2 is even more decline than POE1? :lol:

No, I'm not really surprised.

It's hard to tell, tbh. We don't know anything about the content, but the combat is still a mess. If they manage to rein it in, I think it will be better than PoE1's.

jesus fuck you edgelords

P2 may/will have a bunch of :decline:d or otherwise flawed mechanical revisions, and the writing might be a bit kipi on the tekehupu, but it's bloody unlikely the maps, encounters, or what have you are going to feel like a padded rush job. They've had tons of time to work on them, they're thoroughly familiar with the toolset and production pipeline, and they've been underpromising what we appear to be getting. Early on Josh was talking about 30 hours or thereabouts, now he's at 80 going on 100.

Whatever its flaws may be, P2 isn't going to be a T:ToN.


NOBODY IS ALLOWED TO COMPLAIN REEEEE


Looking forward to that fair and balanced review - you're already shilling and it's not even out yet.



I wonder what will happen if Poe2 turns out to be good.

It's win - win for me.

Game is Shit - Hours of RPGCodex Entertainment.
Game is Amazing - I'll be too busy playing the game to even read the thread.

curious about the doomsayers, what exactly do we have to gain if this game is a failure like so many of you are saying?

Can't wait to open the character creator and be greeted by RESOLVE : +3% chance to Empower your abilities :negative:.

I remain hesitantly pessimistic about the state of PoE2 on launch. If it has decent writing this time (I suspect not) then I'll give it a go after a couple of patches iron out the major bugs (If that happens)
