Det kommer nok ikke som en overraskelse for mange, at der er en ny Pillars of Eternity-spil, men der har været stor debat om, spillet vil blive betalt af en udgiver, eller om Kickstarter igen er måden, hvorpå spillet bliver finansieret.
Feargus Urquhart har dog i et interview med Gamepressure.com bekræftet at det nok er måden Obsidian vil udvikle det nye spil på.
"We were talking about the general idea of crowdfunding Obsidian's games, Feargus said that they thought about crowdfunding Tyranny, but decided to do it on their own. However, they're most probably going to turn to Kickstarter to crowdfund Pillars of Eternity II, and that's when Feargus shared what they're currently involved on:
Obviously, as you've probably guessed, we're starting to move forward on [Pillars of] Eternity II. That is probably something that we want to look at [in terms of crowdfunding]. I think people felt like we delivered on our promise, and then that felt like we could go with Eternity II and people would support us again, because they trust us.
[...]
Eternity II is not announced, [but] it seems silly for me not to acknowledge it, though. If someone asks "Are you working on it?", I respond "Well, wouldn't you work on it?". So then they say "So you must be working on it", and then I'm like "Well, yeah".
Urquhart nævner også i artiklen at Obsidian har flere hemmelige projekter i støbeskeen, men kommer ikke nærmere ind på hvad disse omhandler. Men hvad synes i om et nyt Pillars of Eternity-spil og ideen om endnu engang at Kickstarter projektet?
