I feel the exact same way. I am going to buy the Demo
on day one of it's release, like I said in the thread.
However I am worried for the games ratings, and also
for other peoples opinions of the game. I know a lot
of people loved Divine Divinity and in quite a few ways
this game is really different.
When I played Divine Divinity it felt similar to Ultima 8.
The layout of the interface was perfect, and instantly
familiar. It seemed detailed and the universe was like
a fallen divine world, which I liked a lot.
This game feels like Balders Gate, not Ultima. Not that it
is either of them, there is just quite a big difference
between the two feels of the game. The world has changed
so drastically, and the layout looks simplified.
In some ways it felt like a different game. It was quite
depressing feeling that I would never experience the
same thing again as I did the first time around.
Saying that I still really enjoyed the game for what it was,
even if it did seem very foreign to me.
