Pillars of Eternity
Another homage to the great RPGs of the ‘90s, Obsidian Entertainment’s Pillars of Eternity is also a Kickstarter success story. It features all the trappings of the Infinity Engine classics, with a fixed isometric perspective and gorgeous hand-drawn pre-rendered backgrounds. While the plot deals with the standard fantasy fare of cultists and plagues, Pillars of Eternity is nonetheless terrifically written and features an adapted Dungeons & Dragons ruleset that keeps the combat tense and tactical. An expansion pack, The White Parch – Part 1 came out in August and another is slated for release this winter.
