Wow, this news landed just as I was browsing Steam trying to figure out what to play over my Christmas/NY PTO this year.

Just for context, I played 50h+ of Pillars of Eternity only to abandon it due to the real-time combat mechanics. After getting a great reception for turn-based mode in Deadfire (which I still haven't played), Obsidian are adding it here. Super impressive for a game that is over 10 years old.

I loved my limited playtime with PoE and can't wait to dive into this!
