Spiralyguy Posted June 11, 2011 Posted June 11, 2011 I was a pretty big fan of DS1 and DS2. DS3 has turned the DS series from hack and slash dungeon romp into what appears to be a story driven single player experience like Dragon Age? Except.... the story is terrible, the voice acting is terrible, the dialogue is terrible, and the characters are completely flat. Yet despite all this there seems to be so much emphasis on the story, aka, dialog after every couple packs of mobs. The combat system shows some potential, but with the extremely limited MP options where you're essentially forced to play someone else's NPC, you really have no vested interest in the toon you're playing. Everyone's already touched on the poor implementation of PC controls so I won't go there. I can deal with the controls to be honest, my bigger complaint is the menu system, too many clicks to change one piece of gear. All in all, I'm very disappointed, this was one of the few games I was looking forward to this summer and judging by the demo it's going to be a huge flop. my 2c
Spiralyguy Posted June 11, 2011 Author Posted June 11, 2011 (edited) Can anyone tell me how to cancel my pre-order on steam? Eh, I prolly can't since I got DS1 and 2 bundled with it (cd's were broken) too bad. Obsidian really doesn't deserve the sale. Edited June 11, 2011 by Spiralyguy
WorstUsernameEver Posted June 11, 2011 Posted June 11, 2011 Can anyone tell me how to cancel my pre-order on steam? Could have used the edit button. Anyway, write a ticket asking them to cancel your pre-orders. There have been reports of Steam allowing that without much problem and giving full refunds already.

Obsidian really doesn't deserve the sale. I found this on the Steam forums. This might help. http://forums.steampowered.com/forums/show...d.php?t=1924035
Spiralyguy Posted June 11, 2011 Author Posted June 11, 2011 Great, just sent them a message for a refund. Thanks.
sorophx Posted June 11, 2011 Posted June 11, 2011 Obsidian SquareEnix really doesn't deserve the sale. there. enough with all the Obsidian bashing. if you played any of their games you know what they did and how they did it was dictated by publisher's demands. go wreak havoc on SE forums Walsingham said: I was struggling to understand ths until I noticed you are from Finland. And having been educated solely by mkreku in this respect I am convinced that Finland essentially IS the wh40k universe.

And I like how its designed. So do others as Reviews show. Also again, you are judging the game by what could very well be the worst part of the game. (And from past Obsidian Experiences IS) Also, even in the demo Story and Dialouge are far from terrible. They are competently written but so far just show the Set-Up.
sorophx Posted June 11, 2011 Posted June 11, 2011 No, the Game was still designed by Obsidian..... but all the money from all the sales go to SquareEnix, not Obsidian. Obsidian did what they had been asked to do, the fact that the game went gold shows that SE are pleased with the end result. that's all there is to it. voicing a concern/complaint is one thing. saying that Obsidian are "idiots", or that they "don't deserve our money" is pretty stupid Walsingham said: I was struggling to understand ths until I noticed you are from Finland.

Morgoth Posted June 11, 2011 Posted June 11, 2011 I'm sad because I don't like this video game. Rain makes everything better.
Deadly_Nightshade Posted June 11, 2011 Posted June 11, 2011 how do you know that? you keep saying that like its written in stone somewhere..where is your proof? i want to see it or shut up.. How do you know that's not the case? Where is your proof? "Geez. It's like we lost some sort of bet and ended up saddled with a bunch of terrible new posters on this forum." -Hurlshot
sorophx Posted June 11, 2011 Posted June 11, 2011 how do you know that? well, it's no big secret that developers are payed to make the game, and the publisher gets all the money from the game's sales Walsingham said: I was struggling to understand ths until I noticed you are from Finland.
