I disagree wholeheartedly. D:OS combat was really nice and most importantly turn-based(which for me is always a good thing). I can't say which of the two is "better" but I would never say the one "destroys" the other. Playing D:OS co-op and putting down combos was simply awesome

If they could manage to create a proper co-op experience a la D:OS then yes, I would love to have that too. D:OS really made a breakthrough in this aspect and whoever played the game co-op I'm certain he/she agrees. However this needs the game to be designed with co-op as a priority, which is not what PoE is about.

True, its not good, its awesome. That said, I like turn-based combat much more than RTwP. And D:OS was friggin amazing, especially in co-op

Fallout 1&2 are the best games ever to exist With Jagged Alliance 2. Thank you.

DA:I feels to me like a single player version on an MMO and thus never really kept me interested. I mean it's a cool game, nice looking and stuff, but there's no "character" to it. A bazillion of fetch quests and an open world in the style of Far Cry may appeal to some people but for me they felt really boring, really fast. DA:O though, that was awesome. I especially loved the AI system with triggers etc.

I've played since release and never really noticed any bugs. Might be that I got slightly influenced by some of the stat bugs but I didn't really notice(they are now fixed anyway). Mind you though, I'm not devoting too much time in gaming any more and when I do, I play to have fun, I don't really have the time to check if for example the Dexterity of someone increased by 1 at some random point and I missed it. Or even if I do check that, I don't really care that much.

Dude are you like 10 years old? Obssheep? What the actual hell?

I agree with you but saying "didnt enjoy" is too negative for an above-average rating. I would go more with something like "game is okay, I can play through it once but that's enough"

3/5 description is a bit unfair imo. You can absolutely enjoy a game that scores 3/5, that's not such a bad score in my point of view

I've crafted countless scrolls to overcome the lack of supplies when I got stuck in a couple of places. Life-savers.

Honestly the only thing I don't really like in this game is RTwP. It's just that after many games etc, I've decided nothing beats turn-based in RPGs. Everything else feels too hectic and imbalanced. But that's only a personal preference and I know IE was THE RTwP engine so I live with it

If they could do co-op as well as D:OS did it, then I would love it. I don't think I've ever had more fun in a game with my spouse ever. D:OS was absolutely magnificent in that aspect(and many more in my opinion - bar the mediocre story)

I think the review serves its purpose well. It increases traffic to the Codex. Because that's the aim of this review, obviously. When you play PoE and end up saying that you had more fun with Dungeon Siege 3 there are two possibilities: a) You do not like role playing games (which I doubt is true for any Codexer) b) You are an attention-whore. I will go with b) in this case

Not exactly true, there are a couple of skills that allow minor Health healing once or twice per rest Also not sure but I think you cap Lore at 10?

Its not lazy its just typical fantasy as everyone would expect. As for Xaurips I'm pretty sure theyre the equivalent of Kobolds.
