“A bloo bloo, my name is Scott and I have fancy screenshots to back up my arguments. A bloo, bloo, bloo.”

I stand by my statement: “Shit is better. Hook up the season pass, absolutely.”

;)

Ok, got the season pass. Looking forward to downloading a few GB tomorrow, weeee!

Launch Trailer looks like it just dropped. Lookin’ good!

Bateau · 2016-02-16T07:44:57.000Z

My game is updating on steam.

Scotch_Lufkin · 2016-02-16T07:45:24.000Z

That’s probably the 3.0 update.

Telefrog · 2016-02-16T07:53:02.000Z

The White March Part 2 isn’t even listed on Steam yet. Gonna have to wait until that happens.

From the Obsidian forums:

BAdler:

This should just be the 3.00 Update (unless I really screwed something up). The White March - Part II should be released around 8:00 AM PST.

Page 3 of 5 - Pillars of Eternity: The White March Part II will be released on February 16th! - posted in Pillars of Eternity: Announcements and News: ^ Im fairly sure they meant 11 A.M., not P.M.. Nobodys in the office to push the button at 11...

That’s… er, right now.

Razgon · 2016-02-16T08:05:24.000Z

Well, I just purchased The White March II, so they DID screw up!

Scotch_Lufkin · 2016-02-16T08:07:15.000Z

Store Page is up.

It sounds like it should be out now, some folks may be getting it now after exiting/restarting Steam, but I can’t verify as I’m at the office. :)

rhamorim · 2016-02-16T09:27:45.000Z

It’s out on GOG (that’s where I bought it).

inactive_user · 2016-02-16T09:55:00.000Z

Installed and working here! Yay!

Telefrog · 2016-02-16T09:56:14.000Z

…And now, I’ll wait for the inevitable patch.

Scotch_Lufkin · 2016-02-16T10:00:42.000Z

The patch came out earlier in the day.

Yeah, I’m talking about the inevitable patch that comes out after any big addition to any game.

Bateau · 2016-02-16T10:10:58.000Z

Yeah, the last major release had such big blunders that I (along with pretty much everyone else) just shaked my head in disbelief. Stats were increasing or decreasing on their own, some weapon procs didn’t work, passives didn’t work, etc. Their bug tracker at the time read like a horror story.

Scotch_Lufkin · 2016-02-16T10:46:03.000Z

Ah, gotcha. Probably not a bad plan. Not me though, I’m diving in a little tonight and probably going to have it wrapped over the weekend (or sooner). I did play for about 30 minutes at lunch and everything seemed to be working wonderfully, but I did notice some of the fonts in some dialog looked like a different font size than other dialog options. Kind of strange. I was REALLY happy to see all my party members no longer had a “Spelltongue” buff (which ONLY should have been applied to my Rogue, who has said weapon equipped) - so that bug was fixed at some point, which is great.

Bateau · 2016-02-16T10:53:29.000Z

Oh, I will be diving in too. I’m still trying to decide on a class to play, I really want to try a rogue but they don’t get any real benefit from INT and I want to roleplay an intelligence and perception focused character.

I’m really loving my Druid - who benefits greatly from both INT and PER. You could also just make sure you have a Rogue in your party so you still get the fun of playing with one (I adore my Rogue).

Bateau · 2016-02-16T11:20:30.000Z

How does druid benefit from PER? Are you playing a shapeshifter?

I’m currently watching nerdcommando’s 3.0 update videos and he’s making a strong case for Cipher so I might try that.

Scotch_Lufkin · 2016-02-16T12:05:17.000Z

I’m pretty sure EVERYONE benefits from PER, because your accuracy is rolled for everything from landing an attack with a mace to landing a fireball spell. But also yeah, Bear form. :)
