Dont forget horrible FX.

I love that show.

So Skalpadda you’re afraid the entire game will be a thinly veiled display of how feminism leads to lesbianism?

Heh, well that would at least be something to hang a story on, but no, my experience with Xena is pretty much limited to being baffled by how much horrible acting, story, costumes and fighting you can put into a half hour TV show.

I just finished mass effect, and absolutely loved that I spent almost more time reading and exploring then I did clicking to kill stuff.

If that’s where this is going, awesome.

Still though the game is looking good.

I’m especially liking the idea that non-fatal strikes will be represented as blocks and evading so connecting blows will usually kill you. That’s something the KOTOR games really ought to have done from the first installation.

And also: Why won’t my Gravatar work? :(

Still looks interesting, but I’m fearing the possibility that the story will be like something from Xena. Oh, horror.

Yep, gonna have to get this too. ‘Fall’ is really filling up isn’t it?

DSX, from what I’ve read about it, it seems to be a more Mass Effect interpretation of the action-RPG genre than a Diablo interpretation. It does seem like it’ll have a lot of dialogue and character interaction, possibly some actual tactics once you’ve rounded up a proper adventuring group. It’s to be expected that they’d just show off the combat at a press event, but the fact that the first video was by their “lead writer” (too few studios even HAVE lead writers) is promising.

Certainly, it is too soon to write this game off entirely. Personally I think it looks great :)

I think I’ll make a meaningful choice and skip it, unless they really come through with a meaningful plot, not just testosterone dripping hack n slash.

Looks allright so far. They seem to be aiming somewhere between Mass Effect and God Of War. Not a bad ballpark to be aiming for, imho.

Surely it’s “in stop motion”!
