Yeah man, I love Obsidian's self-masturbating sessions in which you get a massive infodump dropped on your head when talking to an NPC that's supposed to be a commoner and not a fucking historian. Nothing better than having a question that should have a simple answer from a simple man become a drawn out explanation of events and situations prior.

How about your dialogue options which has the writers impose on you what your character should be. You'll get five options, four of them is your character being a Knights Templar and the fifth one is fucking off or opening fire. This is the worst shit ever in a game in which you create your own character because you're very obviously playing what the developers want you to play only they didn't have the heart to go all in and just give you a proper main character you can loosely guide.

Divinity isn't much better and the first game especially is way too heavy on trying to make you laugh when they should be trying to immerse you. But Pillars is not good in any category. Divinity can at least fall back on having a fun combat engine which lets you do some cool shit, Pillars plays like AD&D for Dummies.
