Pillars of Eternity - Patch Details & More Reviews

Bluesnews released information about a new patch in the works for Pillars of Eternity.

A post on reddit opens up the thread to those looking for technical support with Pillars of Eternity in addition to what's offered on their Obsidian's Technical Support forum for the just-released role-playing game. That said, he indicates the official forums are probably a better place to start if you need help.

He also points the way to a thread with workarounds for several known issues. There is also a Pillars of Eternity Support FAQ with word on patch plans, saying: "Yes, we're currently working on patch 1.03, which we hope to release during the week of March 30. We are actively monitoring the Technical Support forum and pulling issues out into our internal bug database."

I also found a few more positive reviews this week so here they are.

Destructoid - 8.5/10

Obsidian has crafted a game full of challenge, intrigue, betrayal, and heart. The Eastern Reach is bleak and hopeful at the same time, and the main plot is packed with twists and surprises with staggering ramifications for a world players will feel they have become part of.

Actiontrip - 9.3/10

Pillars of Eternity is a welcome return to the CRPGs of old, and it’s a definite must-play for any CRPG fan or RPG fan, period. It has so many moving parts that work so incredibly well together with an unbelievably rich history and mythology. Pillars of Eternity will gladly eat up several hours of your time, and you will gladly give them.

Gamerant - 4.5/5

In short, Obsidian Entertainment has created a specific title for a specific audience, but has done so with great success. Pillars of Eternity is a must-have for fans of the Infinity Engine RPGs, or 1990s computer role-playing games in general. Those unfamiliar with the genre may find the title a little less involving, but Pillars of Eternity is undoubtedly a triumph.

PCWorld - No Score

What I'm saying in way-too-many words is this: Obsidian has a reputation for crafting fantastic RPGs, and deservedly so. Pillars of Eternity is, as far as I'm concerned, Obsidian at its best ever.
