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 episode ORIGINALLY started off as a "various unique items" lore episode, but it kind of turned into an episode all about Necropants, a much-beloved piece of "armor" you can acquire in Avowed. There's plenty of tangents I go on, and the lore is all over the place, but it's a fun episode. You'll wanna check this one out.worldofeora@gmail.com@worldofeorako-fi.com/worldofeora

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's episode dives back into some foundational PILLARS OF ETERNITY lore, but still includes Avowed stuff as well (they're all in the same world, after all). Focusing on Wizards today. Mostly we discuss how it is that wizards cast spells, but we also discuss a famous magic academy: Bragganhyl Academy, which has multiple mentions in Avowed item descriptions. Did the developers have Bragganhyl on their minds for DLC and that's why it's so prevalent? I, for one, hope so!worldofeora@gmail.com@worldofeorako-fi.com/worldofeora

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's episode looks at a six-part set of in-game tomes aptly titled "Maxims of the Pargrunen". In there we see a direct change of Pargrunen-ness that the dwarves in Avowed have compared to their brethren elsewhere in the world. worldofeora@gmail.com@worldofeorako-fi.com/worldofeora

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.Spoilers for Pillars of Eternity II: Deadfire in this week's episode. Nothing critical path spoiler, but some interesting lore you find in other questing.This week's episode we dive into the lore found in five books, as found in the "Dawntreader" sidequest. These are the "History of the Living Lands" books you may have found. Don't know if you have them? Well, if you have the *Historian* achievement, then you do. These five tomes explore the origins of the Living Lands and its ancient, now lost people: the Godless.worldofeora@gmail.com@worldofeorako-fi.com/worldofeora

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.Tangential spoilers for the ending segments of the game. KIND OF directly related to the mainline narrative, but technically something you could miss in detail. I leave it to you to decide.This week's episode focuses on a series of documents you can find, called "Orisons" later in the game, which allude to the history of the Living Lands, and what happened to the Ekida (or, "the Godless"), in particular.worldofeora@gmail.com@worldofeorako-fi.com/worldofeora

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.Sorry for the delay in episodes, I've had some life changes lately that I'm still adjusting to. This week's episode, now that it's out, features a talk regarding the origins of "Fior mes Iverno", the main settlement in the second zone of Avowed (Emerald Stair) and its surprising connection to ... Skaenism? Is that the word? Idk, either way, I found it interesting, and I hope you will too.worldofeora@gmail.com@worldofeorako-fi.com/worldofeora

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.Sorry for no episode last week, I've started a new job and also had a mental health "crisis" (it wasn't really one, but felt like it at the time). This week I briefly cover the topic of "Soul Twins", and also "soul maladies" at large. I was inspired by a specific quest in early Avowed (though I don't specify the quest, just to keep its twist a surprise for those who might not have found it) to discuss Soul Twins. Which are, as they sound, when two people share two halves of the same soul. Using this I also springboard into other soul maladies, such as "hollowborn" (being born without a soul), or having a "weak soul" (which is essentially a soul that has lost some of its "matter"). Hope you enjoy!worldofeora@gmail.com@worldofeora

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's episode focuses on some of the lore we see in Dawnshore's "pick-up-able" quests. For context, in each of Avowed's mapped regions you have several repeating "pick up" quests/activities (no, not fetch quests, more like encounters). Such as: ancient memory fragments, god totem pieces, pargrunen cache locations, and unique item treasure maps. Each of these offer a little bit more about the world to talk about...so, I uh...I do that. :)worldofoeora@gmail.com@worldofeorako-fi.com/worldofeora

Longtime showrunner Michael Sollosi officially steps down to hand off the podcast's reins to a new host, but also an old friend. Featuring: Michael Sollosi, Alana Hagues, Peter Triezenberg, Zach Wilkerson; Edited by Michael SollosiOpening and ending music by Miles MorkriGet in Touch:RPGFan.comRPGFan ShopEmail us: retro@rpgfan.comTwitter: @rpgfancomInstagram: @rpgfancomThreads: @rpgfancomFacebook: rpgfancomTwitch: rpgfancomRetro Encounter 450 Game Journal Poll! 

Pewne są trzy rzeczy: śmierć, podatki i to, że jest to ostatni odcinek w 2024 roku. Nagraliśmy prawie półtorej godziny naszego gadania na naprawdę różne tematy. Zebrało nam się trochę i powstał z tego konkretny miszmasz. Jest trochę o technologii, bo gadamy o drukarce 3D i nowym mikrofonie w testach, jest też krótko o grach i nieco dłużej o dwóch ważnych książkach, a do tego dokładamy coś o The Game Awards 2024.

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 upcoming action RPG: Avowed. This episode is a smattering of recordings from a year or so ago that I did about some more of the off-screen Stronghold Adventures from the first Pillars game. I'm still in the middle of a very busy Christmas season delivering with UPS, so I haven't had time to record a decent episode (but don't worry, I haven't abandoned you all). So I quickly edited these recordings to at least give you SOMETHING. Happy holidays everyone, thank you for your patience! worldofeora@gmail.com @worldofeora ko-fi.com/worldofeora

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 upcoming action RPG: Avowed. This week's episode will focus on several theories that both myself and contributors on Reddit have come up with regarding "The Voice" in Avowed, as well as our Godlike nature. This episode is entirely speculative, but it draws on a substantial amount of lore from the previous Pillars games. Interestingly, though, there are NO SPOILERS in today's episode if you want to listen in, but at the same time, this will definitely be an episode where Eora veterans will be able to keep up easier than those new to the world. Not saying you shouldn't listen if you're new, just more of an interesting observation. Speculation is always fun, imo :) Topics discussed: Rymrgand, the Glamfellen, Pale Elf Migration, Godless faction, Wael, Dreamscourge, Living Lands, Old Gods, Regular Gods, Animism, and Godlike. worldofeora@gmail.com @worldofeora ko-fi.com/worldofeora

I touch on Spoilers for Pillars of Eternity II: Deadfire around the 30min mark. Once you hear the jazz music interlude if you don't want to risk it feel free to jump off, but I try not to say anything spoilery outright, I just skirt around it as best as I can. Nextly, apologies for this episode being a week late. I've made the episode a bit longer than usual to make up for that. 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 upcoming action RPG: Avowed. This week's episode goes over a bunch of the gameplay footage we saw about Avowed in recent weeks. I go over a lot of what it is we saw, touch on the story and characters. Read some lore directly from pieces of gear or books. I also do a speculation section at the end of the episode about why we are a Godlike, and of whom; what "The Voice" might be and how the Godless faction might have ties to an ancient civilization known, in modern times, as "Yezuha" worldofeora@gmail.com @worldofeora ko-fi.com/worldofeora

Spoilers for Aloth's companion quests in both Pillars games, but NO major narrative spoilers for the crit path of either games. 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 upcoming action RPG: Avowed. This week we look at Aloth, a companion from both Pillars of Eternity games, and fan-favourite within the series. Our resident Wizard from the Aedyr empire, this episode talks about his background and what paths he can takes throughout the story of the Pillars games. Will Aloth make an appearance in Avowed? He's definitely a strong candidate given his ties to a certain secretive faction, and Aedyran nationality. But I suppose only time will tell. worldofeora@gmail.com @worldofeora ko-fi.com/worldofeora consider leaving a rating/review/comment

NO SPOILERS :) 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 upcoming action RPG: Avowed. This week's episode discusses the major city settlement in the second Pillars game (Deadfire), "Neketaka". We look at the city overall, with some of its history and culture, before doing a brief dive into each of the city districts. Finally, we top the episode off with a look at some ancient ruins beneath the city and what that might imply for the Huana peoples living in the region. worldofeora@gmail.com @worldofeora ko-fi.com/worldofeora

An Inquisition that everyone saw coming. Retro Encounter played the first two Dragon Age games in the last nine months, so naturally there would come the time to finish the fight. Dragon Age: Inquisition escalates and expands the conflicts and concepts of the first two Dragon Age games, from the Mage-Templar war to the plight of Dalish Elves, in a 2014 Game of the Year contender. So how does today's Retro Encounter panel find this decade-old open-world?

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 upcoming action RPG: Avowed. This week's episode is about a rather important nation in the "new world", called READCERAS. Originally the colony of Aedyr, and then the Divine Kingdom of Readceras, this nation has it's own interesting origins/history that leads to one of the most important events in recent history (in relation to Pillars 1): The Saint's War. worldofeora@gmail.com @worldofeora ko-fi.com/worldofeora

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 upcoming action RPG: Avowed. This week's episode is a continuation of the "History of Eora" series I am plinking away at, where we look at the esoteric in-game "History of Eora" lore-books from the Forgotten Sanctum DLC in the second Pillars games. This week, I focus on Dyrwood related tomes (Dyrwood being the setting for Pillars 1), which results in a shorter episode (which I do on purpose, just getting back into the swing of things post-vacation). We learn about the very first Hollowborn (and what it is) as well as the inciting events that founded the nation of Readceras. worldofeora@gmail.com @worldofeora ko-fi.com/worldofeora

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 upcoming action RPG: Avowed.

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 upcoming action RPG: Avowed. This week's episode I dive into the in-game "History of Eora" anthology, which as been requested for quite a while. I don't do all 16 entries of these books in this episode, I just pick the ones I think could be related to Avowed / Living Lands in some way. It gets pretty interesting, and we draw some connections which might be seen in the game of Avowed. I *will* be doing future episodes on the other 12, but likely in just 4-book segments, done topically. worldofeora@gmail.com @worldofeora ko-fi.com/worldofeora

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 upcoming action RPG: Avowed. In this week's episode I revisit the lore of the Aedyr Empire, its people, its history, and their language. This is largely a summation of lore that I did a few years ago (check out Ep. 4-6, and some afterwarsd) about this. However, with the involvement of Aedyr mentioned in the Avowed trailers of recent I decided it was time to give a decent overview in an updated way. So, here's to the Aedyr Empire! Happy Feast of Feasts! worldofeora@gmail.com @worldofeora ko-fi.com/worldofeora

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 upcoming action RPG: Avowed. This week's episode focuses on Inquisitor Lödwyn, and the paladin order she helps lead, the Steel Garotte. Most of the lore will be about the Paladin order, but we tie it back to the Inquisitor. This lore is also associated to the goddess of Law, Woedica; and the empire of Aedyr. All of which is discussed (a bit) and speculated upon for Avowed. For instance...why did Obsidian choose The Steel Garrote over all the other potential factions? Did they need a Woedican faction? And Aedyran-origin faction? Who knows... worldofeora@gmail.com @worldofeora ko-fi.com/worldofeora

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 upcoming action RPG: Avowed. This week's ONE HUNDREDTH episode features a decently in-depth overview of the Avowed Deep Dive, as seen on Xbox's Official Youtube Channel. There's *a lot* to cover here, so I won't even list it all. Suffice it to say, it's all very interesting. There's a good mix of lore and gameplay related discussion today :) As well, just a BIG thank you to all who've been on this journey with me with this podcast (whether you've been here since the beginning, or you jumped on recently). It's been a wonderful 100 episodes, and I can't wait to aim for 100 more (we will see how much lore we can parse from Avowed, I suppose). So thanks to you, the listeners; and thanks to Obsidian for their support and just creating an awesome world for us to camp in each week :) worldofeora@gmail.com @worldofeora ko-fi.com/worldofeora

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 upcoming action RPG: Avowed. This week's episode we cover A LOT! (1) an overview of the all the news related to Avowed (up to the point of recording, that is); and (2) we dive into the Story Trailer for Avowed to discuss all the topics of LORE we see within. If you're at all interested in the world Avowed takes place in, this episode is a nice one to start in on. We discuss the empire your player character comes from, who the lady with fire-eyes is, and a bit about what might have gone on in the Living Lands (Avowed's setting) a long time ago. worldofeora@gmail.com @worldofeora ko-fi.com/worldofeora

First off: if you have any thoughts/theories on Avowed-related stuff after the Story Trailer dropped on Xbox's 2024 Showcase on June 9, send them my way, I'll happily put them on the show (send via email, either written or recorded). 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 upcoming action RPG: Avowed. This week's episode is just a short set of insights and thoughts after watching the trailer. I haven't dove into it fully or dissected anything. It's just "initial thoughts". But, I think there's some interesting observations I've noted which some of you might find intriguing, and get the ole tinfoil hats out, as well. worldofeora@gmail.com @worldofeora ko-fi.com/worldofeora
