The End of Pillars of Eternity

11 April, 2021. 320 words.

At last, the Pillars of Eternity series comes to an end.

I had intended to play the DLC and come back to the ending later, but life circumstances got in the way.

Next on the channel will be a month or so of “random games.” I had to move my gaming PC to another room, which completely disrupted my recording setup. While fine-tuning the new setup, and adjusting to a new job, I tried out a lot of free Stadia Pro games and other samplings that didn’t require much time or energy investment.
