Obsidian's Josh Sawyer jokes that he's waiting for a call from Microsoft to make 'Pillars of Eternity 3. But I don't want it to be a joke.

With the runaway success of Baldur's Gate 3, could we be seeing a revival of Pillars of Eternity?

Known as the spiritual successor to Baldur's Gate 1-2 it feels like the Pillars of Eternity series is due a bit of attention, despite the famously lacklustre sales of Pillars of Eternity 2.

Josh Sawyer, designer on titles such as Icewind Dale, Neverwinter Nights 2, and Fallout: New Vegas, hopes that Xbox will want to write a $120m cheque to fund development of Pillars of Eternity 3.

Do you think Xbox would be willing to take the risk, or would this be betting against the success of Baldur's Gate 3?
