SteamUser - very insightful and interesting (to me personally) article! But I agree with Stabbey (and you) that this thread is just going to keep going, and going, and going, with no real relevance to the D:OS beta. Gyson apparently likes level-scaling MMOs; I prefer Larian-style non-scaling RPGs; life goes on. Back to the beta!
Randomly, I'm reminded of the two rather pervy chaps I encountered in the mine tower in Ego Draconis many levels before I should've done. That was annoying, and I almost threw my computer out the window in irritation, but it was
such a sense of achievement when I eventually pwned them. It was quite disappointing when DKS put them off-limits until I was supposed to find them.
That would've never happened with PC level offset, which is ultimately just an anticlimax.
