We now know Pillars of Eternity isn't an eternity away—in fact, it'll be with us all too soon. To prepare us for that 26 March release date, the project's director, Josh Sawyer, has streamed over an hour of footage.

If you're an old Infinity Engine fan, you're going to want to watch this. It's a remarkable recreation of the spirit and look of games like Baldur's Gate and Icewind Dale—or in other words, precisely what the Kickstarter first promised.

You can see an archive of the stream below, or watch the VOD directly through Twitch. Skip forward to the 9:54 mark if you don't want around 10 minutes of staring at a menu screen.

Day F*cking ONE. I am so exciting for a true RPG like this. Not this pseudo Bioware RPG shit. More than four companion, absolutely fairytalish and dark look and feel, exactly how I love it. I can't wait for it.

This is touching my nostalgia in all the right ways.

I am definitely getting this. I just need to power through LoG2 and Wasteland 2 first....

Having options is good. We can play games like this one minute, and then play games that make PS4 look last gen the next minute.

Atleast we have the option to play games with good graphics, unlike you.

Sssshh. Didn't you hear? Every game is shit until it is announced for PS4. Just like how Diablo 3 was, until it came to consoles then a lot of consolites said it's their GOTY.

Looks stunning visually. Probably the best visuals of 2015 as of now.

However, I am still rather concerned about the gameplay. Did they put any effort into the encounter design at all? The encounter design is what truly made BG2 stand out.

Edit: Seems like Sawyer, acknowlededged it had issues as well, and that they are working on improving the encounter design. If they do, that is great and this game might just be the RPGoty this year.
