Pillars of Eternity II: Deadfire

According to my Steam page this unlocks in 7 hours. Not sure if this is a staggered release or not but there are no reviews or proper previews available anywhere so I'm wondering if it's under embargo? It can't be due to lack of interest given how popular PoE I was.

Anyone pre-ordered or are you waiting for it to land and be reviewed?

Looks like reviews are under embargo until the game launches. I've pre-ordered, have the option for a steam refund if something is terribly wrong with it.

AH, I hadn't considered the refund option if it's somehow really awful. Time to pre-order then, cheers for the prompt.

RPS not totally impressed which is odd because that's normally my yardstick. They've hit pretty hard

I'm enjoying this a lot so far, have gone Barbarian which I never do, and am having a blast. The music in the first game was great but in this it's exceptional. Animation looking good, story a bit 'OH NO GODS AGAIN' so far but might change, but this is a lot of fun.
