Update #81: The Front Line: Fighters and Barbarians
But that simply wasn't the case with the Infinity Engine games... There were strong builds yes, but they never made the combat "unchallenging".

Banished: it's like Civilization but good
The problem is that moders can't touch the game, no new building can be added and no existing buildings can be changed, it's pretty dumb.

Banished: it's like Civilization but good
Idk, once I got to 200 people I found a pattern and just uninstalled the game, there was simply nothing more for me to do and it didn't seem like testing the pattern to 1k numbers was going to be fun. Even Pharaoh which was my favorite builder game got boring once I built everything there was in the game. There is something to be said for a game like Civilization even with it's hit and miss AI. There is no comparing games like Banished and Civ, firstly because the are different games and secondly because Civ is far superior by any measure (scale, replayability, complexity).

Banished: it's like Civilization but good
The problem with the game is that you have so little to do. You have a very limited number of buildings and the only thing you can do, is see how high you can grow the population. The game honestly feels like a demo.

Update #81: The Front Line: Fighters and Barbarians
My only hope is that they don't balance the classes to the degree where they are monotonous. Then there truly was no point in having classes at all and a classless system was the way to go.

The ultimate game in that genre was Devil May Cry 3. It was hard as balls and it punished button mashing like hell. Still remember that witch level to this day.

Questions about paladins
The weapon doesn't have to be class restricted in the traditional sense of you being unable to pick it up, as I said before you can make it be an ordinary sword for any other class. Also I don't have my heart set on it being in PoE, but I would really expect/like it to be in the sequel. In the end if they are really dead set against any class restrictions in any way, shape and form they could make it be a Holy Sword that anyone can wield. But I don't see a reason for being that set against class weapons. Btw are wands and scrolls class specific?

Questions about paladins
Maybe, but again the game is supposed to be a harking back to the IE games and a big part of being a Paladin in the IE games was quest for the HA. They were kind of the staple quest of those games.

Questions about paladins
So? You don't really think that the Holy Avenger originated with D&D and the forgotten realms? If we have classical class archetypes, then there should also be a Holy Avenger. Nothing to prepare my self for, PoE is a harking back to the IE games, IE games had the HA. The only question is name, power and class restriction. I'm finding a lot of personal opinions here stated as facts. You guys may not like the HA but I assure you many of us do. As had been said numerous times if you don't like it don't use it.

Questions about paladins
As I said, I get that and wouldn't mind if it was left for the sequel. As for Josh, well he had it in IWD2, I don't see why he can't have it in PoE2.

Questions about paladins
So because a game has the HA you can't enjoy it? Lol, that's like a kid seeing some other kid having toy he doesn't have and throwing a tantrum. BG2, IWD2 and NWN2 all had the HA and it didn't make any of those games any less for having them.

Is there still no world cup thread? (the sequel)
Glad Brazil won, they put so much money in to this and the people suffered for it so much, it would be devastating for them to drop out this early.

Oh I won't be disappointed if there isn't one in PoE, but I expect/hope there will be one in the sequel.

Almost but not quite. If there is a good explanation/story behind it I don't mind those kinds of things.

Questions about paladins
Why not, if it's appropriately hard to get it, then hell yeah it should be awarded. It doesn't have to be class restricted, it can be an ordinary sword in the hands of non Paladins. Also the HA is kind of an iconic weapon of the Paladin.

"Single-player gaming is our focus."
Probably. The time they invested for a feature that almost no one used could have been used to make the single player game even better.
