I think at this point how you receive the game will very much be determined by what you love most about this old-school model of RPG. The counter to this, of course, is you’ve got an extraordinarily open and loose RPG, with a vast network of islands to explore, at your own pace, while introducing a whole new set of mechanics around owning and operating a ship, a crew, and indeed, the matter of ship combat. The impact of this almost incidental establishing lasts for a really long time, in a game that’s already extraordinarily open and loose, meaning that you’re going to have to do a lot of work yourself to let the events feel like they’re of any particular import or impact. You wake up from death in a hand-drawn cutscene that obliterates your castle, and then you’re fleeing by ship to another land, bam. Thankfully, while there are more familiar faces to come, you can pull together a new team of new characters reasonably quickly. Then you bump into Pallegina, and… well, it becomes a little concerning this is going to feel like a band reuniting long after they should have retired. Quickly you gather up rogue wizard Aloth. And it’s Eder, Mr Meh from the first game. You awaken on a ship, your ship, to find that most aged of Bioware-inherited traditions in place: the most bland whitebread character possible first to join you. Either way, your stats are scrapped and you start from level 1 again.
I wanted Ambree, my paladin from before, and had to load up PoE1 and copy all the minutiae of who she was to get it all right. Which makes it a giant pain for anyone wanting their previous avatar. However, despite being able to import your choices, for some reason you can’t import your actual Watcher. (Now, if you finished PoE1 you’ll be thinking, “But hang on…” and yes, it does address that rather sticky issue of deities, while at the same time rather fudging around it.) She wants you reborn, to tackle Eothas, and in the process gives you the chance to import an end-game save from the last game to bring over all your decisions, re-decide everything again in meticulous detail, and most of all, reroll your character entirely afresh. The destruction of Caed Nua also destroys you, The Watcher, whoever you might have been in the first game, and sees you in the In-Between, confronted by Berath, the god of death. In a giant form, he erupts from the ground under your castle in Dyrwood, destroying it, and then strides off toward the archipelago of Deadfire, stamping on all sorts on his way. You’ll perhaps remember that PoE1 was about, amongst other things, a blight of soulless children on a region shortly after a god, who took on human form, had been killed. Such is the nature of this sequel that to explain its opening plot is to impose upon the ending of the last. And in others, it feels wearily stretched from the process. It needs to be a completely new dozens-of-hours-long RPG, while it also needs to be a sequel to 2015’s stunning first outing, while it needs to feel like it’s evolved from then, while it needs to feel like it’s faithful, while it… In many ways, it succeeds despite being tugged in all these directions. What a lot Pillars Of Eternity II feels like it has to do. Despite a week of playing, I'm still going, so here's my in-depth thoughts about the game excluding the impact of its ending. Best of luck out there, and be sure to search Twinfinite for more PoE 2 guides.Pillars Of Eternity II is seemingly infinity hours long.
That’s all you need to know for how to repair your ship in Pillars of Eternity 2: Deadfire. Every hour while you travel around, your crew will work on repairing the ship using the supplies that you gave them. Simply having it in your inventory is enough. Unlike food and water, which must be put in a special inventory in order to take effect, you don’t need to do anything else to repair your ship. This is where you can buy all kinds of ship supplies like food and water, and of course, repair supplies. Just travel to any city, and click resupply on the bottom part of the city map. You can pick up repair materials from the resupply option while at a city. To repair your ship in Pillars of Eternity 2: Deadfire, you need to first have repair supplies. In either scenario, your ship will eventually take damage, and you’ll need to repair it. Or if you run into a spot of bad luck, you might have to navigate through a dangerous storm. To get from point A to point B, you might have to deal with a few pirates along the way, or hell, you might be the one doing the pirating yourself. Pillars of Eternity 2: Deadfire takes place on the open seas of the Deadfire Archipelago where piracy runs rampant.
