My opinion about PoE's writing will remain a secret, but it is true that there was definitely a failure in leadership (see Avellone's comments about loathing the writing process).
Didn't include that in the review, eh? :M

I wrote what I thought about it. Leadership problems could have been smoothed over in the work itself with another pass they didn't have time to make.

HOLY FUK! How can anyone read that gibberish? Put that in the game as some sort of puzzle and I for sure would need an online spoiler guide to complete it. LMAO
 

Got bored and left

As a person cursed with dreadful handwriting, I can certainly sympathize. Any brave souls with sharp eyes care to decipher?

Codex Year of the Donut Serpent in the Staglands Dead State Divinity: Original Sin Project: Eternity Torment: Tides of Numenera Wasteland 2 Shadorwun: Hong Kong Divinity: Original Sin 2 A Beautifully Desolate Campaign Pillars of Eternity 2: Deadfire Pathfinder: Kingmaker Pathfinder: Wrath I'm very into cock and ball torture I helped put crap in Monomyth
First page:

Torches - lit at night? Maybe by hand?

No label on Poko Kahara

Poko Kadesz not revealed on map

No audio

Entered wrong part of Poko Kahara

Engw. Titan cutscene doesn't end, locked out of controls

Opening Vektor's store allows you to miss quest opening

Fewer Huana terms esp. casts & other English - equiv roles

Map label still says "Mahna" village

Enemy action icon is flipped out

Party composition is weird (orlan player?)

----

Sounds like an Aumaua town.

Huh. "Teaser Trailer". Wonder when that'll come out, and what will come attached to it (Fig/Kickstarter/traditional publisher deal with Paradox/mix of all of these).
Who are Matt & Shon though? Artist and 3D modeler/animator?

Favor Huana terms esp. casts & other English - equal roles

First word is fewer, not favor. Equiv, not equal as well. Would have it make a little more sense. Likely talking about cutting down on made up words to describe people's roles in this particular society.

Progression ended in ??? on cutscene

??? = Cave

You were able to decipher a Hell of a lot. Engwithan Titans sound sexy, though.

If it's the Republics, be sure to check for any Obsidian artists on Twitter going to Venice for architectural inspiration.

Personally, I care more about the soundtrack than the background for atmosphere. If the music is on par with the tracks from White March, it'll be astounding. BGM in Russetwood is one of the best 'snowy area' songs I've ever heard in a game.
