  1. The issue is, it’s just so unremarkable. There’s no great depth, no interesting meta-narrative, no unique pull. It’s just a bit more Pillars – a section you’d not have minded in the main game, but never remembered a while after. Which makes it hard to get particularly excited about – especially at £11.

    Awesome addition to an even more awesome game. Pillars of Eternity is 10/10 in my book, but since we are talking about The White March - PartAwesome addition to an even more awesome game. Pillars of Eternity is 10/10 in my book, but since we are talking about The White March - Part 1, I have a few things I would like to point out.
    I love new companions and new territory and the storyline itself is fine, my biggest problem is that it takes place in a middle of the game and I myself do not often play games twice coz when I play the game, especially rpg game I like to connect with my character and complete 100% of the game if possible, but this expansion suggests that we should start a new game... and its supposed to have 3 parts. I myself just loaded a save which I had just b4 the last dungeon. The second thing that I dislike is that it comes in multiple parts, coz imagine a guy starting a new game for the 1st time, now he has to w8 till all 3 parts go out b4 he can complete his game.

    Still this PoE is one of the best RPG games which came out in last few years.
