Whoever recorded this was ... not playing very well. He slapped a fucking fireball right into the scrum at one point, took off half the main characters's HP.
If it's destroyed that means we won't have to read it, YYAAAAAAYYY!
Yeah probably because these videos were captured using Story Time-equivalent difficulty.
Not really, he's just reiterating stuff that was already in PoE.Josh answered (or maybe it's better to say dodged) your question:
how does magic work in this game now?
I don't feel like digging, how does magic work in this game now?

From now on, every instance in Pillars franchise will have good writing in the post Darth Roxor's and Jeff Vogel's editorial on writing.
We have tread into post-Roxor-Vogel's era.
Good writing which of course contains no prose whatsoever and consists solely of vitriolic one-liners with occasional deadpan humour.
would be nice if the game's main bosses weren't giant godlike golems but archmages instead
All phrases in Deadfire have the same base recitation and linger durations. Instead of having different levels of phrases, there's just a single large pool of phrases to choose from. Invocations are still categorized by levels, with higher level invocations being more powerful and costing more phrases.
Chanters have three subclasses. One, the troubadour, has Brisk Recitation as a modal to speed up phrase rate (with commensurately shorter linger) like Sirin. The beckoner is summoning-focused. We haven't talked about the third subclass yet.
The cost scaling for chanter Invocations is also compressed, so the top level Invocs don't cost 9 phrases. You will also start each combat with a small number of phrase count (like breath) that increases with power level.
Overall, chanters should feel like they have more opportunities to use their Invocs and their higher level Invocs should be more accessible earlier in combat.
Ah, so some classes will have more subclasses?

No, there was a stretch goal for adding another subclass to each class. They all have 3 now.
I thought it was 2, too. Weird. Now they are going to limit the list of priest deities arbitrarily, with one of them being Eothas.
They haven't said that AFAIK. You're making an inference.
They have said that the priest subclasses will be "Priest of *add deity here*", sooooo.
