    Hype! It really does look like Skyrim 2, clunky combat and everything, but Obsidian were never really known for their combat.

    I hope this game will have mod support though. Wouldn’t exactly be an Elder Scrolls spiritual successor without it.

    I have mixed feelings after seeing this trailer. Pillars of Eternity is one of my favorite games and I especially love the world and the lore, so of course I’m incredibly interested. But the combat looked a bit clunky and dated. I am curious to see the rest of the character building and systems behind the direct combat, like skill trees and items. And I know this isn’t directly a PoE game, just one set in the same world, but I hope there is some form of party system or something, as I felt the interactions between party members and their backstory quests were such a big part of what made the world special.

    Oh this looks really cool, will keep an eye on it.

    May have to get around to finishing Pillars, with this being in the same setting…
