So this is a fun game.

They're still having launch issues, but I'm having a blast with it all the same. I mean really, how can you not enjoy the prospect of being a humanoid four-eared cat with horns whose culture consists of an unstoppable war machine hellbent on conquering all that stands in their way?

The combat has a bit of a learning curve since it's fairly fast paced and the default control scheme is a tad clunky, but people who know how to do keybinding magic should be ok while I'm just going to invest in a mouse with more buttons.

There's a good selection of classes, but I've really settled into my niche on Warrior. There's plenty of flexibility though. I mean seriously, there's an entire trait line I can take that seems to focus on reviving people. As a warrior. I'm totally going to take that and run with it all the way to the goal posts and possibly out of the stadium as well. Also: banners with AoE buffs and shouts that are basically bard songs. I'm playing Bard while hitting things with a gigantic hammer and shooting things in the face with a rifle. How cool is that?

The new quest system is definitely working out. I'm never at a loss for something to do while running around. They do repeat though, so I've got some concerns about the long term viability, but right now it's pretty solid. It really makes the game something you can just pick up and play.

If you get bored, you could totally post me a pic of all the female hairstyles. For consumer education purposes, of course.

No, seriously, I don't wanna buy it if there's a lack of hairstyles I like. Smiley: tongue

I put the female human hairstyles in there for you. I'll do other races later if I stop being a lazy bum.

The question mark in parentheses is my favorite part for out-of-context quoting, btw.

Thanks. I can't say I particularly like any of them, but at least some aren't too bad.

This thread is rife with douchebaggery. Especially from cid, those screens look awesome. I really want to play another MMO, but I have so many games to play through on PS3, Vita, and Wii at the moment, not to mention a GINORMOUS list of coming soon's that I can't do it. I also think that I'm potentially forever off MMO's now. I tried TERA which was super hyped to me and I created a character and ran around then quit. Not going to spend $60 to try a game for a few minutes. Going to have to wait for a trial. This has been my most anticipated MMO for a LONG time too.

Here's my comment waaaaay back in 2009 in =22

Game looks amazing from the trailer.


Still though, with the twenty plus games I have waiting right now plus the soon to be released LBP (vita), Ni No Kuni (WIZARDS EDITION **************** Retro City Rampage, Assassins Creed 3/Liberation, Persona 4 The Golden ([link=http://www.flickr.com/photos/playstationblog/7847846726/]SPECIAL EDITION GET ON AMAZON, BAYBEE), Soul Sacrifice, Dishonoured, Far Cry 3 and a lot more. I have no time. I think I'm going to die with unplayed games in my collection that are here right now. Smiley: lol

Here's looking at you Catherine, Arkham Asylum, Dragon Age, Killzone 2, and MGS4.

The worst part is that I'm replaying games I beat AGES ago like Skyrim for platinum, FFT: War of the Lions, FFIX, XCom, Persona 3 and queuing a few others. It doesn't help that instead of playing something I haven't, I'll instead do something like load up Lumines on Vita and play for an hour.

Oh, and XCom Enemy Unknown in October is gonna make me cream my jeans. I hope Firaxis doesn't **** up the PC version (they won't, I hope). Been waiting for a new, proper XCom game for fifteen years.

Plant people added to the image gallery.

Apparently I've run out of space though, as it seems to now be removing older images from my albums. Smiley: frown
