Through July 5th, you can get the Standard and Deluxe Editions of Deadfire for 15% off, or the Obsidian Edition for 20% off.

Pricing Change Rollback Incoming!
Greetings Pillars Fans!
We know some of you have had some strong feelings about pricing lately, so we're happy to announce that our awesome partners, Paradox Interactive, will be rolling back their recent pricing changes to previous levels in response to your requests. Our fans are the most important thing to us at Obsidian -- you are the reasons we get to continue to do what we love to do. When you talk, we listen. Please let us know how you feel in the comments on Steam, on our forums at obsidian.net, or on social media.
Below is a statement from Paradox Interactive's CEO Fredrik Wester, please give it a careful read: https://forum.paradoxplaza.com/forum/index.php?threads/pricing-change-rollback-information-thread-latest-news-here.1031635/
Thanks for your support of Pillars of Eternity!
Quick piece of clarification: per Mr. Wester's statement, Paradox cannot roll back prices until the Steam Summer Sale is over, because doing so would cause them to have to pull all their games off of the sale. Right after the Steam Summer Sale is over, Pillars pricing will be rolled back to original levels.
