You are an adult, a fully fleshed and mature character in a brutal world that will be dealing with the complex and at times brutal backstories and choices in a hostile world full of thieves, murderers, and worse. This isn't a tale of personal exploration and growing into adulthood. (Personal aside: I just loathe what happened to JRPGs starting with Final Fantasy X). You're a stranger in a strange land, but unlike a Japanese RPG, you don't begin the campaign as some bratty emo kid with a stupid haircut and ill-fitting clothes. The genre was flush with titles in the 90's with games like Bladur's Gate, Shadowrun, the original Fallout. It's the Computer Role Playing Game counterpart to the traditional D&D pen and paper RPG. This feels like a game where the devs truly made the game they wanted, but failed to really take into consideration a way to introduce new recruits to their world. But at the same time this game very much feels like it was made for the fans of that niche, and struggles to reach beyond those borders. The end result: Pillars of Eternity is a very adult game that just nails the cRPG niche they were aiming for. Things like 'slavery, hostile prejudice (racial, cultural, spiritual, sexual), drug use and trade, and so on' will all help flesh out the story and add a believable core to the highly fictional world, he said.'

In an interview with Ars Technica, one of the designers, Josh Sawyer, revealed that Kickstarter wasn't shier first choice but it was 'almost impossible to get funding through traditional methods for a game like this.' However going the Kickstarter route frees the game form the shackles a traditional published might impose. They are an experienced studio with titles like Fallout: New Vegas and South Park: the Stick of Truth to their credit. Unlike many Kickstarter campaigns, the folks behind it, Obsidian Entertainment, aren't running the development out of their garage. You've probably heard this, but a bit of background: Pillars of Eternity started as a Kickstarter campaign.
