I didn't get into the backer beta, and I haven't followed the talk about it. I don't think there's specific date set for open beta or release, but last I heard release was slated for "winter" this year.

Pillars of Eternity delayed to 2015

Oh nos.

Damn, that sucks. I thought they were really close after opening up the backer beta. Oh well. It would've competed against DA3 for me anyway, so I guess early 2015 will work out well (although that's Witcher 3 timing...).

Release date announced today: March 26th.

A lot of great games right around the corner! Still haven't delved into DA3 yet

This to come out next week.

Sweet! Hard to believe it's been 2.5 years already.

It's out!

I preloaded it from Steam yesterday and anxiously waited until midnight thinking/hoping it would become playable then. Unfortunately I didn't notice the countdown to 10am PST. Looking forward to playing it tonight when I get home from work. On the fence whether I want to watch people play it on Twitch in the meantime, or if I should just wait and go into it completely fresh.

Beautiful so far!
