Software Reviews and Criticism

  One of the best RPGs!

  I consider myself an old school gamer. I grew up and played games such as Baldur’s Gate, Baldur’s Gate 2, and Ice Wind Dale. So… when this game came out that harnessed D &D rules and followed a similar playstyle as its predecessors. I knew that I needed to grab this game and give it a spin. I was not disappointed. This game possesses an engrossing storyline, and fun and addicting gameplay. Although, this game does have a learning curve (i.e., learning about the use of which offense to use against which monster for example), it is a must play for anybody who loves an old school point and click adventure. I am excited to hear that the Microsoft store has the sequel and I look forward to picking it up and playing it soon.

  Awesome game

  Love this game. Everything from the graphics to the story lines. It’s kind of challenging at times, but that’s another great aspect about this game. The only negivate that I really have about this game is the combat. It is kind of confusing at first. The real time combat situation kind of makes it hard to figure out what is going on, but you have options to slow it down. It would be nice if there was an option to switch combat style from real time to a turn style type combat. Even though the combat is confusing at times, this game is still worth it. Highly recommend this game to anyone that likes this style of gameplay.

  A quintessential experience beyond anything I have played

  Pillars of eternity, a game that grips you strategically, affects emotionally by its story, mystifies the self in quests, prizes the player in treasure and loot, and a customization to feel the depth of each word, action, decision and character as ones own persona metamorpshed within the avater he or she decides to play within the game. I have had no issues or problems with this game. The game has never crashed. This game is perfect, do not worry about your system or OS, it plays on just about anything, so break out that old laptop and get to playing a game that will hook you better than a fishing rod.

  A Worthy heir to Baldur’s Gate

  I still own the box that Baldur’s Gate came in, before the App Store, before Steam. And, BG II... And Neverwinter Nights... And then I waited, for years, for over a decade. Pillars of Eternity is grand and vasty and deep. It is perfect. I am on my fourth play through, mostly because I just finished Pillars of Eterninty II, and now I want to play through both with one consistent character. PoE II is even more perfect, if that is possible.
