Forums - Gaming Discussion - Pillars of Eternity and Cities: Skylines to consoles in August 2017

Role-playing game Pillars of Eternity, and lovely city-builder Cities: Skylines, are coming to PlayStation 4 and Xbox One this year.

Cities: Skylines was released on Xbox One in April so this new release is for PlayStation 4 only. The PS4 Edition will include the After Dark expansion and come out 15th August.

The Pillars of Eternity: Complete Edition will come with both White March expansions and be released 29th August for PS4 and Xbox One. Both games have user interfaces adjusted for console, naturally.

This means that the 3 highest rated PC exclusives of 2015 will be consoles this year - Undertale, Pillars of Eternity and Cities: Skyline.

I guess no one cares about these games...



Both are pretty great... but not really demanding games.
If you have a PC you might as well play these there.

Keyboard & mouse are good for these.



I'm playing PoE right now. Bought it two days ago at the GoG sale. Good, old-style, real-time tactical RPG. Not far enough to speak on the story but the game-play seems less muddled than Divinity: Original Sin.

I've never played this kind of game on console, though, so it's hard to think how it would work.

Well, I already have all of them on PC, and Cities: Skylines and Pillars of Eternity are almost certainly much better on PC thanks to mouse and keyboard controls. This is still great for console owners, but you're not getting too much of a reaction from me at this point. Besides, like you said: 2015.

Make a Godlike - Moon Godlike, Paladin order of the Kinde - wayfarerers.

Moon Godlikes, get small heals (to them and nearby allies) when they go below 75%,50%,25% break points.

Kinde Wayfarers get endurance when you slay a enemy. Also Flames of Devotion restores endurance to nearby allies.

That and the small buffs ect a paladin has... and you end up with a kinda OP character.



Good stuff but i rather play Cities: Skylines on PC.



City Skylines is very interesting. Looking forward to play it later this year on my new desktop.



Bet with Teeqoz for 2 weeks of avatar and sig control that Super Mario Odyssey would ship more than 7m on its first 2 months. The game shipped 9.07m, so I won

I bought Cities:Skylines when it came out and quickly grew tired of the terrible vehicle/traffic AI. The icing on the cake was the snowfall expansion pack that only allowed snowfall on specific maps included in the pack.  It seems like such an impractical way of releasing something.  The UI bugs me too because some of the icons aren't centered.



I do care about them but in this case not for consoles. Still great for those who have no PC for gaming or who still want to play it on consoles, though. Both are good games.
