Obsidian Entertainment is evolving its approach after the success of Avowed, transitioning from isometric RPGs to a first-person format. The studio, known for the Pillars of Eternity series, is contemplating a third installment that may adopt a 3D isometric style similar to Baldur's Gate 3. Design director Josh Sawyer expresses potential benefits of 3D environments over static backgrounds, valuing dynamism and depth. While this shift may concern purists, the benefits could enhance gameplay experience significantly and redefine the series' identity.
The gorgeous backgrounds of Pillars of Eternity do present some limitations.
I think that a third game should be an isometric 3D with an environment more like Baldur's Gate 3; it would work.
