  1. Those are all rubbish in Diablo 2, though. Diablo 2 strengths are in its replayability and in the very diverse character builds. Actually the stuff I listed is handled quite well in Diablo 2. It's part of why the game got a patch 10 years into it's life and why people still play game, more people than play DS3 by the way. DS3 is not about GOOD ACTION COMBAT either ... it is definitely in the same genre as Torchlight ... this isn't Ninja Gaiden. Enemy variety and AI is good in Diablo 2? HAHAOHWOW No it isn't Ninja Gaiden, it's a BG:Dark Alliance style game. BG: Dark Alliance is an action rpg like Torchlight. What planet are you from? Torchlight just has ultra gimped multiplayer as in they gimped it out of existence which is a huge negative against that game. The next step up in gimpy multiplayer is DS3, you know hobbling along with a cane telling the youngsters it's cool to only have one multiplayer mode cause that's all gramps needs! EDIT: I'm willing to bet that enemy variety in Diablo 2 >>>> (that's much much much much greater btw) DS3 In Torchlight, or Diablo, or Titan Quest you don't have fine control of your character. You don't have active dodge, active block, combos. It's the reason why continuous attack works with the first games but wouldn't work with Dungeon Siege 3. And it's why Dungeon Siege 3 ends up in a very different genre. The player's manual dexterity is much more important in DS3 than in Diablo. Dungeon Siege 3 and Dark Alliance work as lite versions of Ninja Gaiden or Devil May Cry. You may not enjoy that sort of gameplay, but it is what it is.

  3. I watched all the Diablo 3 videos, Barbarian will certainly be an extremely primitive click fest, way inferior to Lucas. As for others the only thing that will be better is that you won't be forced to play a gender you don't want to play, for example I don't want to play any of the female characters in DS3 because it's immersion breaking. Can't really see how Diablo 3 could be better except for crafting system and the game will probably be a lot bigger. Seriously, Dungeon Siege 3 is far better than Torchlight, Diablo 2 and Titan Quest in every way. If that's not enough for people I don't know what is. You have to understand that those games were never about good action combat. They were more about ease of entry and character building. Dungeon Siege 3 really isn't in the same genre as Torchlight or Diablo or the first 2 Dungeon Siege games.

  5. The game simply seems to perform better than expected on most or all configurations.
  6. 1,2 and 3 with a keyboard or the face buttons with a gamepad. If I'm not mistaken.
  7. He's already working hard towards losing his crown, though. Also, what's up with him defying his mother? Didn't see that coming.
  8. I'm still bloody waiting for the dispatch notice. grrrr.
  9. This episode really brought forward what a prat Joffrey really is. He's just Sansa in a different direction. He's all "I must do kingly and powerful things" and "I'm retarded!"
  10. That's not atheism.
  11. I'm thinking most people, especially on consoles, don't know what a Dungeon Siege game is.
  12. That's the guy who did the great interview with Nathaniel.
  13. I've always thought that the colour scheme was one of the best things about the forums. It's easier on the eyes and it doesn't stand out at work.
  14. I ordered my PC version from Amazon UK. The people who have the game already, ordered it from where?
  15. I don't have any definite info on that but I recommend you wait until Friday. In any case, as DS3 is a Steamworks game, you'll have to wait until the 17th to play it.
  16. If you join a game, your chosen character will level up to whatever level the host is at.
  17. That's a proper game commercial.
  18. This thread is just bad trolling so it's locked.
  19. DS3 is now in 7th place on Steam's sales chart. Last week it was in 20th or something. I'm guessing people are taking their demo experiences, and acting upon them.
  20. Gamepads are better for fighting games and brawlers. There aren't many of these on PC but there are a few. Guilty Gear, Street Fighter, Arkham Asylum or DMC4 are examples. A gamepad is also better for a few other games, including Last Remnant and most sports games.
  21. They view the forum, even if they might not reply to most questions/requests.
  22. Wait for the full game, play it to completion and then review it.
  23. It begs the question of whether Nathaniel met any of the ladies. This is one of the better interviews on the game, by the way.
