a person who refuses to accept any standard short of perfection.
Intetesting! He says he's working on a different project that isn't Avowed. I'd love it to be Pillars 3 but that ship has sailed I fear.
Do you have any involvement on Avowed? I was already interested in Obsidian making a first person fantasy game, but hearing it was set in the PoE universe made me immediately :allears:
No, sorry. I just give feedback as the studio design director.
Hello, I don't play many games. I never played Baldur's Gate or any of those kinds of RPGs. I played PoE while on quarantine and am immediately hooked. The story and world building is so fantastic. I bought all the DLCs and, much to my wife's chagrin, spent the whole quarantine lost in that world. I immediately jumped into PoE 2 and am loving it. I've read there may not be a 3rd- any chance of a kickstarter or something to prove that us PoE fans are legion? Thanks!
Thanks. I don’t think the fans need to convince me/Obsidian/MS of anything. Your support is always heard and appreciated. I think that we need to believe that if we try to make a game in this style again, the existing fans will enjoy it, new players will enjoy it, and ex-fans who were disappointed by Pillars 1 and/or 2 will come back to it. On top of all that, we need to be excited about making it.
Even devs who really enjoy working in the Pillars universe were burned out after the end of Deadfire, especially if they went on to work on the DLCs. To put in all of that work and have the game limp over the finish line, sales-wise, doesn’t get people jazzed up about rolling on to a sequel.
Ultimately I think this is a matter if internal will and belief rather than something that requires external validation.
Depends he said no on Twitter and his blog replay is more vague. Though Avowed has a different project lead and its not Josh this time. It's another old timer at Obsidian.I mean…. it's not a "no", right? Right?
(Hmm. There's doesn't seem to be an emoji for "clutching at straws")
He definitely ruled out Pillars 3 on twitter? Ah ok. I missed that. Fair enough. Guess we wait and see what he's up to. And in the meantime, Avowed might be good.Depends he said no on Twitter
He mostly talks about how burned out he/the development crew are after POE II sold so poorly despite being better then the original. It's why we probably have Avowed now.He definitely ruled out Pillars 3 on twitter? Ah ok. I missed that. Fair enough. Guess we wait and see what he'd up to. And in the meantime, Avowed might be good.

I wouldn't rule out a PoE 3 but it will most certainly be different.
Obsidian already mentioned in past interviews, some with Josh, that they wanted to branch out the IP in different games/genres. Avowed is a spin-off set in the setting.Maybe so different it's Avowed!
I haven't played PoEII yet, but everything else he had a strong hand in I've enjoyed, and in interviews I agree with everything he has said.
