Playing Pillars of Eternity for the first time (lemmy.world)

I'm really enjoying it so far. I'm solidly in the middle of Act 2 and about to start The Winter March part 1.

I'm playing it on my Steam Deck and I'm really liking how I've got the controls set up. I grabbed a community template and made some additions of my own. I added a virtual menu for the left trackpad and changed the right joystick to handle scrolling long text and menus.

The story is good and I'm hanging in there on Easy. I figured I'd end up going down to the Story difficulty.

I think Divinity Original Sin 1 and 2 are better gameplay wise but the world building and lore in Pillars is unmatched.

I wanted to check out Pillars because I think Avowed looks cool, but I do see Divinity Original Sin 2 on sale pretty frequently so I might pick it up. I'm still trying to take a big bite out of my backlog before buying more games I won't end up playing for years. (I finally played GTA5 last month.)
