Ep. #163: The Endings of Deadfire!

About this episode

This episode discusses the implications of the different endings of Pillars of Eternity II: Deadfire.

[MAJOR SPOILERS FOR PILLARS OF ETERNITY I & II (especially II)] The World of Eora is a news & lore podcast about the fantasy setting created by Obsidian Entertainment for their cRPG series, Pillars of Eternity, and their action RPG: Avowed. This week we are looking at the ending of Pillars of Eternity II: Deadfire to discuss the implications of what the different endings can mean for the world, at large. This episode is largely speculative, but pulls from ideas and known lore to draw these speculations. This episode is also the result of a fan request. If you would like a particular topic covered, let me know by giving an email. This week I also played Doki-Doki Literature Club and bring that up at the episode's end. worldofeora@gmail.com ko-fi.com/worldofeora
