I have only been playing DKS for about 10 minutes and the graphics are vastly improved. The HUD is much easier to look at as well. not to mention the soundtrack is awesome.

i played till 10 after midnight last night and only barely got past the demo area content. I was really trying to be a completist in the early area. However I still have a few locked chests and areas to get into, and 2 unused keys so I'll have to figure that out another time.

The time I spend in the demo was well spent as my first real character has much better stats and items than the first few.

I started playing around 5pm and stopped at about 7pm to eat. After I went back to play and didn't stop until 3:30am. lol I'm already at Maxos Temple. But I need to get out and level up some and get some more potions before the fight.

In total agreement. The shiny armor, more detailed environment textures, better lighting, etc.

DKS is the bee's knees.

One thing I don't see is the jumpy graphics. and I have noticed different items, I know there are different items every time, but I have found 3 pieces of 3 different sets before I even got to talana.

There seems to be an intentional typo in your quote, although I can see how that could evolve into the three Bs from the double Ds...

The wait is over! I was able to land a copy locally so I will find a new owner for the preorder that is set to arive next week. Amazingly the issues I had with camera and character movement in the demo are not a problem with the full game. I can only think it was just a glitch...

The camera automatically backs off the character when I am close enough and start combat. Also, the character will engage the flanking enemy automatically as long as there is no lock engaged on another one!

It's breast, butts and beer for me now..!!

Glad to hear the full game doesn't have those issues, though they were not a huge deal for me.

I was a bit down at the start, but I've made a full 360. The game doesn't just look better, but for the most part IS better. I just wanted to say thanks, for making it one of my favorite games of all time once again.

Blood echelon armor is awesome! Im having a difficult time deciding what armor im going to use next! Because if I lose my blood set my attack drops by 14 melee points...o well, I can just use plus 100 melee on both of my blades that have a higher attack rating.
