Is pillars of Eternity worth the 50 Euro price tag? What's the port like? I went with War of the chosen because of the price tag diff but I'm getting pretty damn anoyed with the performance on ps4, seems to be even worse than the base game. |
I mean the PC version, not the port, so I can't say much about the port. I imagine that controls-wise, it should work relatively well, albeit more slowly and a bit more clumsily, on consoles. Technically, it shouldn't be a very demanding game, so it should run well unless they really screwed up the port. As you can see from the other games I mentioned, I'm, uh, a bit late with a lot of games, which sort of explains why I'm still playing the PC version. As to whether it's worth the price tag, it definitely is if it's your cup of tea. It's very much a traditional RPG in the same vein as Baldur's Gate and such, and it's also somewhat text-heavy. What it does, it does really well, but you have to have the correct expectations. It's definitely not for everyone. Personally I've enjoyed it for dozens of hours and the only reason I didn't finish it when I started it was lack of time. Since then, I've had more time on numerous occasions but once you start and leave something, it's harder to get back in.
