im sorry but comparing fallout 3 to dragon age so far as mechanics goes just seems ridiculous to me, its like comparing madden to tony hawk because they are both sports games.

You can in Fallout 3... ?

how did it compare with cod:MW?

you cant jump or crouch in diablo (ie action rpgs) either (well usually)

no crouching or jumping? is this post a joke?

the first of the levels in the demo was pretty meh, i liked the second one though. it felt really short to me, but what do i know. i do not like the levels being in the daytime though, but it sounds like only 1 of the 5 campaigns takes place during the day.

what are the skills that come with the wardens keep dlc? anyone know what they do? are they overpowered? unbalancing- the- game over powered or just a little bit?

dlc was just dated for november 24th. 10$

i really hope the dlc adds 5 to the level cap, assuming they can do so while retaining balance

an enormous crap is of more than ordinary significance. its extraordinary, so under volourns definition, crap can be art, but unless you shape your crap with some creativity, a big crap would not be art under fighters definition

major sloppy, how the hell did no one notice that before they released the game.....

in real life people sometimes get offended when you try a joking response. i havent played the game, but what youre describing sounds totally reasonable and a lot BETTER than mass effects illusory dialogues

And traps, poison, stealing, and herbalism. All of the above are "skills" in DA, thus available to every class. Heck, you could give a zerker pickpocket if you wanted. Really, the only actual abilities unique to the rogue in DA are stealth and lockpicking. Stealth is only really useful in DA if you can kick ass once you're done sneaking into position (while not getting your ass kicked), and lockpick is something you can easily live without. You also have the class specialties. Assassin is designed to kill people from flanking angles. Duelist is designed to kill people toe-to-toe. Ranger is designed to summon pets that kill people. Bard is designed to let you buff the party so that they can more effectively kill people. Starting to come into focus why rogues should be able to hold their own in combat? oh no i wasnt talking about dragon age, i was talking generally about rpgs and classes. I'm old school and i like rogues who are NOT good at fighting but bring a bunch of useful skills to the table outside of combat, in dragon age, if the rogue is NOT super useful outside of combat then obviously he'd need to be better IN combat. i just, in general, dont prefer rogues who fight like fighters in my rpgs. at the very least they should have half the hitpoints/survivability.

oh ok that makes sense then! have you been playing solo or with friends? i've been playing splitscreen coop which keeps the game feeling really fresh so far with the joking and fun having and beer swilling etc

so you only played as one character? i can't do that in games that offer me multiple classes i HAVE to try at least two of them im at my ~35 hours by getting two characters to level 25. leveling is going more slowly now too, im not sure how people are getting to level 50 in only 20 hours, its going to take me twice that to get just 1 of my people to level 50. maybe i just spend too long staring at scenery or something, or doing all the sidequests

how many hours of fun did you squeeze out of it before boredom sat in? titan quest gave me about 10 or 20 diablo 1 about 100 diablo 2 about 200 borderlands so far is 36 left 4 dead about 200 cod 4 about 15

my sheild is pretty sweet, its a 486 healing shield, i havent tried any other kind though, i found this a few levels ago and havent looked back!

dune rules

sweet, it looks like we're at about the same place in the game, i like your loadout a lot, especially that revolver, if i had that gun i'd be in love with revolvers too! so far the only good one ive found had a 2 bullet chamber, and frankly i hate that.

i dont need great animations in my rpgs so long as story character and C&C are present in spades. it helps sure, who doesnt like the shinies, but its pretty far down on the list of importance

the future of pc gaming is probably about what it is now. lots of mmos and strategy games and casual stuff. i buy just as many pc games as i did ten years ago, maybe more. so it doesnt seem to be any worse off, its just that console gaming exploded while pc gaming kept on trucking and someone decided that means pc gaming is in its death spiral when blizzard says that starcraft 3/diablo 4 will be on consoles only, and valve says half life 3 will be console only then i'll believe that pc gaming is dead, until then its still got the best franchises: civ, diablo, starcraft, half life (maybe someday a proper fallout sequel or homeworld sequel or myth sequel) if i couldnt play games on my console anymore all i'd really be losing is some cool japanese stuff like zelda and final fantasy, some platformers too maybe? gears of war/halo/cod etc all would be better on pc i play my xbox and my pc about equally, but i truly believe that pc gaming is superior. xbox is just far more casual, which can be nice sometimes certainly, and i like it for games like fifa or offline splitscreen, but thats about it.

ummmmm.... didnt diablo 1 create the action rpg genre? how could it be fake?

can all mages heal? only wynne? is she just better at it? its hard to picture a challenge level that requires the use of her ive never played bg with a cleric and i did ok. liberal rests between battles and a druid and a paladin was always enough healing for me

im still in search of the "perfect" weapon for my playstyle, so far it seems to be a high damage high accuracy assault rifle with a good rate of fire, scope, and a huge magazine. aim at their head and watch the criticals fly i tend to like snipers with a high damage and a rof of about 1 (more and i waste shots, less and i get annoyed) i like high rof smgs that cause explosions... boomboomboomboom i haven't yet found a purpose for revolvers, up close i prefer a rifle or smg, long range a sniper. which is weird because i normally like revolvers and shotguns in most shooters.... hmmmm what weapons are you finding yourself using most often?

better than diablo 2?
