Maybe, just maybe, you should try some of the many patches. Forged Alliance even runs a tad bit slower than patched vanilla SupCom because of the extra graphical effects.

Anyway, SupCom had reasons enough to be that slow/demanding (just like TA), Space Siege obviously doesn’t.

Apparently, it’s a british thing…

The problem with Diablo clones is that Diablo is *still* really good. There’s a (relatively) thriving mod community. The gameplay still has the same addiction. You can’t just make Diablo clone and be done with it. You have to do what Blizzard did, and why they’re rich – discover what it is that makes people click for loot, then build a pretty, playable, and interesting framework around it.

Then add cows.

But just say it. Space Siege. I thought the name Dungeon Siege was a bit silly, since Dungeons tend to be underground, and there’s not usually sieging going on . . . you tend to walk into them and poke around. Maybe do some hacking, and some slashing. Maybe a little of both. Not so much the wait outside and hope the monsters starve to death.

But Space Siege. Oh my god, what a name. It doesn’t have frills, and it has no pretensions but one . . . the pretension to AWESOME.

. . .

But yeah, the game’ll probably be a bit mediocre. But on the other hand, Space Siege.

Question: how attacking is done? Auto-timed like in DS itself or is it a clickfest like in Diablo?
