PILLARS OF ETERNITY

Ian Dean embraces the ‘90s There was plenty wrong with the ’90s – Joe Bloggs jeans, high-energy techno, too much John Travolta – but the RPGs were great. Obsidian’s Pillars Of Eternity turns back the clock to the heyday of isometric action RPGs set in hard fantasy worlds. With balanced team tactics and a script that brilliantly wraps its world around you yet still finds time for sharp bickering, it’s a beautifully crafted ode to the decade.

Pillars Of Eternity looks like a classic ’90s RPG but features all the balance and storytelling of a modern PS4 release.
