These people don't even care about the games mechanics. Just make easy so easy that they can finish the game, problem solved. This way we could still have interesting systems and mechanics. Like it was stated by Sawyer " people liked the IE games because they were isometric and had cool locations". So, "casuals" could still be enjoying this game same way they enjoyed BG or IWD.
I guess in reality all of these choices have more to do with Sawyer's personal opinions about BG or IWD. He didn't like the stuff that many people absolutely loved.
Funny how you like to simplify the opinion of so many people you never met. Most people probably are not spending their time on the forums of a game still in beta. However, that should not say anything about how they experience or play a game!
Have been lurking here a few times, but should not do that too often, its really depressive. If I should read all posts made by certain people I think I would end up in an asylum and write a statement that OE is to blame for my mental illness for the terrible game they are making right now. Its too much like DA:O and that game was SUPERcrap!!
Do all those people talking **** about a combat system thats not an exact copy of the IE games really expected PoE to be just that? An exact copy of a game and its mechanics thats more then a decade old.....? Please tell me you are not serious?
Also annoying are people stating opinions as they are facts. Don't like that at all. Thats an opinion.
BTW did many playthroughs of BG I and BG II and also played DA:O, think they are both great games. Its possible, really.
Here is where I end my first and last post. Hopefully I will enjoy a great game in about hallf a year.
