Visually appealing and ticks a few boxes for me; sci-fi setting and epic levels. I may give it a go whenever it comes out.

Happy Birthday WDeranged!!!!

My understanding of the classes is that they are designed with specific roles in mind (IE: Rogues and Rangers are the Heavy Hitters, Mage and Druid are for AoE.) Sure you can make them something else but they will never reach their full potential as a class if you do. I prefer my mages to be "glass cannons" that have high damages vs. both single and multi-targets but cant stand up to attack very well. This is most likely a case of me being stuck in the past. I think it may have been interesting to offer each class a offensive, or defensive, or hybrid build. EDIT: Im also slightly concerned that since spells don't scale with level that if you miss finding whatever the next spell upgrade is that the mage will fall behind but hopefully the new spells aren't too hidden.

Theres a picture of a black Godlike floating around the forums somewhere. Ill see if I can find it.

Both of the classes sound interesting and fun. Out of petty selfishness for my own gaming preferences I wish there was a way to make a "nuker" mage.

Yes, you will be able to select your race, but PoE is not based in the real world. Instead of black, white, etc... you will choose Orlan, Aumaua, etc... and yes, this will be reflected in your avatar and ragdoll. Races of PoE.

You are not being asked to pay twice. That link directs you to the website where you will determine how your monies will be divided. For example, I paid a total of $52.00 and that is broken down into: $25.00 for the game, $20.00 for the expansion and $7.00 for the strategy guide.

Rofl. Perhaps you two should relax. I couldnt care less which OS anyone uses, or their skill level, or what market share Linux enjoys. I though we were having a simple conversation on why a user would choose Windows over Linux to game on and it is my opinion that ease of use is that reason. Nothing more, nothing less. Coming off as aggressive tools is bad form.

I hope there is a toggle to turn the AI off. I don't want NPC's charging into battle because I didn't notice they were idle for 2 seconds.

Except that the user would have to take extra steps to set up Linux on their PC? Once it becomes an out-of-the-box product, then Linux would offer no drawback. For example, I can get in my car and drive to the store or I can build my car and then drive to the store. Sure they both work but one method is more difficult and prone to mistake.

specifically for playing games? probably nowhere. but maybe You can help me, because i've never understood why people would want to play games on windows when they can play on linux. yes, see, i understand why they have to play on windows, but i was asking why they would want to. i've asked: "why would i want to play on windows if i can play on linux?" You've answered with: "because there's no advantage to playing on linux." this does not answer my question, because You haven't told me if there are any disadvantages to playing games on linux. so i've asked myself: "are there any disatvantages to playing on linux?" and also answered myself: "for games that work on both OSes there are none. the decision, what to play those games on therefore comes down to the general OS preference." No. You asked why would "people" want to play on Windows. The answer being, if there is no advantage to playing on Linux why would anyone bother with it for gaming.

What?

^Because there is "probably nowhere" advantage to playing on Linux, maybe?

^Ah the memories that brings back. I invested a small fortune in quarters playing that game. Day one purchase for me.

Dallas Buyers Club Pretty excellent and McConaughey is crazy talented, imo.

If you haven't already, send a PM to Fionavar.

Do spells scale in power with level? I assume no since, afaik, spells eventually go from per day, to per encounter, to at will. Also increasing in power would seem a bit OP.

So you can only read the messages if you have a special in-game ring? I didn't know that. I assume the ring is only available to those that donated to that tier?

I am a little bit dumberer for reading that. Note to self: Stop clicking BruceVC links.

We can only go back in time? I want to see the technology available 1000's of years from now. Oh well, I guess it would be cool to see the event that wiped out the dinosaurs.

@Yoja: English please, if possible. Google translate of above:

It would be funnier if it made some of the less mentally stable NPC's grouse non-stop for the rest of the game.
