Yeah it's nice that he now payed for it. He must have bought it between you locking his old thread and making this new one.

I played the beta and I felt that it was very similar to D2. If you didn't like D2/Torchlight, you won't find any pleasure in D3. There is in my opinion no big story improvement compared to D2. D2 definitely had a story compared to D1 but in the end Diablo was always about hack'n'slash. The story is...

Awesome game - As a 36 year old-school RPG gamer, I'm really enjoying LoG as much as I enjoyed EotB 1 and 2, and Captive. I seem to have a natural affinity to 'knowing' my way around complex tiled maps (good for me eh?). I've scooted down to level 3 pretty swiftly using 'kiting' (there's a word I n...

Still here are some ide...

If you are interested in old stuff, I would always recommend Wizardry Games over Bard's Tale games. Best new ones are the Drakensang -Games. Shall we begin an argument... The ...

Mmm lime sounds good to, or maybe pear!

I can see you are a fighter.

I read the review and it is fair although I disagree with the final rating. Some of the criticism I don't really understand. How do you want to build puzzles without switches in such a game? Combat is a matter of taste. I like it a lot. Some people seem to hate it... but you pointed that out in the ...

All point and click games had absurdly un-logical puzzles and douchebag doorstops. It was just the way of things back then. Worse, it was before the days of GameFAQs helping you out of a tight spot (days which are nearly passed now, actually, its the age of the Wiki/Concise Online Reference at the ...
