Pillars of Eternity is a role-playing game created by Obsidian
Entertainment. The player controls the actions of a hero traversing a
vast, fantastical world alongside a team of independent characters. The
game was created with the financial support gathered through the
Kickstarter platform. The creators of Baldur's Gate, Icewind Dale and
Fallout, among others, were involved in the production process.
Project Eternity is the first completely independent game from Obsidian
Entertainment. The developers decided to use the experience gained in
Black Isle Studios and create a role-playing game combining the best
features of the genre classics such as Baldur's Gate, Icewind Dale,
Planescape Torment, and Fallout. Among the developers are Tim Cain
(Fallout, Arcanum, Temple of Elemental Evil), Josh Sawyer (Icewind Dale
and Icewind Dale II, Fallout: New Vegas), Scott Everts (Fallout,
Planescape: Torment, Icewind Dale, Icewind Dale II, Fallout: New Vegas),
Brian Menze (Planescape: Torment), and Dan Spitzley (Planescape: Torment).
The plot of Project Eternity is set in a vast fantasy world. The players
can visit a number of realms, including Ruins of Eir Glanfath, Free
Palatinate of Dyrwood, Pearl Coast, and Lake of the Drow Tombs. The
various locations are characterized by considerable diversity, including
different kinds of opponents. While traveling, the main character faces
many NPCs, some of which may give him a quest or, in some cases, join his
party.
The game is based on the classic role-playing game genre solutions. The
creators decided to include real-time combat with the active pause option
which allows the players to stop the fight and carefully plan the actions
taken by the party members. The game also features a character development
system based on the experience acquired during the game, and a
considerable assortment of weapons, armor, and items that you can buy,
find, or acquire.
Graphics of Pillars of Eternity refers to the classics of the genre. The
game offers an isometric view, characteristic of role-playing games from
the turn of the century (e.g. the Baldur's Gate and Icewind Dale sagas).
