Mortismal has a terrifyingly high tolerance for jank. But if they are excited then I am excited. Both because we tend to have very similar tastes in CRPGs but also because they are one of the bigger PoE fans on the internet.

To my knowledge, Obsidian hasn’t released a game with jank since before South Park.

Both Pillars and Tyranny are nowhere near on the same level as a New Vegas or a KOTOR 2 but, trust me, Obsidian continued to launch games REAL hot well after they made a south park game.

They haven’t done a “This is 75% of one of the greatest games ever” since Mask of the Betrayer. But they are still Obsidian.

Being able to release on their own schedule instead of being made to crank out massive RPGs in eighteen months helped a lot.

Mask of the Betrayer was great

It was an amazing expansion that deserves to be in the same conversation as Planescape: Torment

But whoa boy was it incomplete and jank.
