Pillars of Eternity Expansion Pack
Release Date: August 25, 2015
The first expansion for Pillars of Eternity, the bestselling cRPG created by Obsidian Entertainment. The action takes place in an abandoned dwarven stronghold, Durgan, where, as rumor has it, one can find tons of incredibly valuable artifacts. The place is overrun by monsters though, and most adventurers that dared enter it never came back.
Pillars of Eternity: The White March Part I released for the PC, is the first major expansion to the cRPG titled Pillars of Eternity from the Obsidian Entertainment studio; the DLC requires the vanilla version of the production.
The action of the expansion takes place after the events of the campaign. The triumph of the player-controlled heroes has had major influence on the land and tales of their success have reached the remote region of White March, situated at the base of a grim mountain fortress named Durgan. The stronghold has been abandoned by its dwarven builders a long time ago and is now inhabited by monsters; the presence of the new tenants, combined with numerous traps, makes the castle a death trap and most who enter are never seen again. There is still no lack of daredevils, who are ready to risk their lives, since it is rumored that inside, Durgan holds great wealth and powerful artifacts; the player’s group also takes up the challenge and barges into the fortress in search of the legendary secret of the durganian steel.
Apart from the main storyline, Pillars of Eternity: The White March Part I offers a variety of side quests; furthermore, the expansion introduces new abilities and additional companions for our team. The level cap has also been increased.
All of the mentioned novelties do not change the basic gameplay elements. Pillars of Eternity: The White March Part I is still a classic cRPG title, in which we explore the world, complete tasks, develop our heroes and fight in battles. The skirmishes take place in real-time with the active pause option available. The developers have decided to offer new content without changing the gameplay mechanics.

Pillars of Eternity is a series of isometric projection RPGs with strong references to such classics of the genre as Baldur's Gate or Icewind Dale. The player travels through the author's fantasy world, commanding a team of colorful characters. At the head of the company is the protagonist, whose characteristics can be freely adjusted at the beginning of the game. Rich in descriptions and stories, the carefully created world offers a whole range of dialogue options and opportunities to interact with NPCs. Of course, there are also battles, which are fought in real time (with the option of active pause). As we perform successive tasks, our team grows in strength, learning new skills and acquiring better equipment.

This year's E3 proved to be exceptionally rich in more than just console games announcements. It's been some time since personal computers made their presence felt on the market in such a noticeable manner.
So far, Xbox One and PlayStation 4 players didn't have a chance to play Pillars of Eternity on their platform of choice. This will change with the release of Pillars of Eternity: Complete Edition, announced to hit consoles this August.

PC Invasion: 7 / 10 by Peter Parrish
The White March is an expansion of gorgeous new landscapes, new companions, and new challenges. It should push players out of their combat comfort zones, and is a fine excuse for some familiar PoE questing, but doesn't yet feel essential.
PCWorld: by Hayden Dingman
The fact is, The White March Part One is good fodder for those coming in fresh and a fine addition for those looking to replay, but isn't compelling enough on its own for you to come back to Pillars of Eternity if you've already finished the game.
Gaming Nexus: 8.8 / 10 by Travis Huinker
The White March - Part 1 is a great first expansion for Pillars of Eternity fans that have been in need of new content. A lengthy main quest, varied side tasks, and an enthralling narrative combine to make a worthwhile expansion for veteran players. The White March is best recommended for those players with a high-leveled party of adventurers ready to embark on a challenging quest to enter the Dwarven forge of Durgan's Battery.
