@Zak, i think that’s what doomed it really..all the hype..all the bravado so to speak about it being the greatest thing to come…too much to mount it seems.

i too though will give the final game a go.

Fighting wasn’t fun, no skill involved, no real choice in how you attack your enemies. This means that the way you play the game has been decided by the developers, not by what players enjoy themselves.

I know what you mean about leveling up in the sill tree. There was no explanation of what you were gaining. I like seeing that how your attack rating is affected when applying different skills (diablo is a good example). Just getting a skill to go from 3 to 4 every time you level up doesn’t really tell you anything about how your character develops.

The characters, enemies and story all seem top notch, but the game play is lacking. I don’t really see it as fun. This is the kind of game that you want to finish because you invested time in it, but playing it feels like work, not like fun.
