I’m really enjoying it so far. I’m solidly in the middle of Act 2 and about to start The Winter March part 1.
I’m playing it on my Steam Deck and I’m really liking how I’ve got the controls set up. I grabbed a community template and made some additions of my own. I added a virtual menu for the left trackpad and changed the right joystick to handle scrolling long text and menus.
The story is good and I’m hanging in there on Easy. I figured I’d end up going down to the Story difficulty.
Pillars of Eternity is very good. The writing is fun and I liked a lot of the classes. Especially Cipher.
I think the second one is better though. You get a ship! And the powers are per-fight instead of per-rest, so you don’t have to worry about camping much at all. Also multiclassing is fun. I wasn’t a heavy optimizer but my rogue/monk just punched stuff into chunks.
