Well it's over now, and I noticed Lord Malis and Egin played it (they were still on my friend's list from the E3 for everyone event) but I was too busy playing with my brother and getting plate armor to say hi. Shame on me.
Well anyway, I'd like to say that this game is going to be awesome. The graphics are great and it runs well on slower computers (except on mine, for some reason it slows down over time, during combat only) The gameplay is awesome, the combats are fast paced and you almost always have something to do during those fights. The missions were fun and the objectives were varied.
It's clear that what makes characters strong is how skilled and coordinated players are. In one mission my full group (6) of human players got wiped by a few ennemies, then I tried doing that mission with my two brothers and a monk henchman (computer controlled healer) and we cleared it easily.
After that when I got the materials to craft some plate mail (it looks so nice!) I went to the tournament area where my party always got wiped by organized guilds. Someone did accuse of hacking because I used a skilled called Frenzy (Lets me hit 33% faster but all hits on me are critical hits) and I killed him in just 4 seconds.
I have only two complaints so far, the music is kind of underwhelming and the cutscenes during missions lack a lot of sounds. Hopefully the sound problem will be corrected before release, as for the music, it doesnt really matter as some people do like it.
Post your opinions on this thread if you have any.
