Remember how cool they made regular Spore look? Then we all bought it and it sucked so bad it just made us all so sad. I'm only saying, it looks cool here, but I'm wary of most games Maxis makes these days since Sim City 4. Well, Sim City 3000 kind of sucked too, but in not so many ways.
that trailer left me with mixed feelings. not sure what to expect of it. i "might" give it a go, but i'm more positive about Gothic 4, more excited about Witcher 2 and definitely can't wait for Dragon Age 2
and if Diablo III comes within 2011... oh well... everything else is screwed. at least when it comes to my playtime!
PlugY for Diablo II allows you to reset skills and stats, transfer items between characters in singleplayer, obtain all ladder runewords and do all Uberquests while offline. It is the only way to do all of the above. Please use it.
Supporting big shoulderpads and flashy armor since 2004.
Yea I'm definitely getting the Pokemon/DotA vibe combined with the loot and dungeon crawling experience of a Diablo-clone. Although I must say performance hasn't been that bad at all except for the occasional lag and servers crashing, but that's expected in beta. I didn't play Spore, but the customization feature of Spore actually makes a lot of sense in this genre since you're obsessively collecting loot and upgrades... which you can then attach to your characters in amusingly lewd ways. Anyway, it's kind of refreshing to see a sci-fi spin on the ARPG genre that involves mutant Pokemon but they still have a long way to go (no trade system, no procedural maps, wut?). Although being in the sci-fi theme makes visiting every world feel like I'm stuck in the uncanny valley of Starcraft.
Fun until you "catch 'em all". Have not tried the PvP though.

God.
Shiny.
*sigh*
I'm too old for gaming.
And that pretty mcuh sums it up I think.
Slow, Clunky Combat.
Tedious Interface.
Poor Action RPG elements overall.
Voice work that makes me cringe.
How this thing got past the development stage as a good idea is beyond me, even shadowflare is better then this game...
