Haha. You might be. I know I have nothing against it. :P

For sure it's helpful. I'm kinda ashamed of how little attention I pay to my grammar & syntax when I comment online. I'm usually in a rush because I'm at work. Thanks.

Jumping puzzles are a huge part of GW2. In fact, the game has vista points that characters have to climb to the top of throughout all major environments. Getting to one of these points unveils a cinematic that pans around the environment to gives you the lay of the land in a fashion very similar to what you encounter…

GW2 really has ushered in a new philosophy in MMO design

I own and enjoy both Guild Wars 2 and Minecraft. Not sure why you're automatically assuming I don't.

You're not a fan. I can respect that. I guess all I'm really trying to say is that it was something different that Arenanet did to try and shake up the genre a year ago, so it's not a feature particularly unique to this new EQ game.

Oh me too. Like I said in my original comment, there's enough fresh ideas in there that I'm not ready to call the game completely derivative. I just don't know how much I agree with discussing that skill system and those parkour elements like they're something unique and innovative. Or multiclassing for that matter.

It certainly looks that way. Especially when you read about the parkour elements that are in there too. So it's Guild Wars 2 + Minecraft.

At any one time, players will have access to, at most, eight abilities, four from their class, four from their weapons

I pretty much only have backlog. I can count on both hands how many games I've beaten in the past 5 years.

I really wish this game would make its way Westward . . . although that's HIGHLY unlikely. Besides being a huge Treasure fan, I also just love the monster designs. Just look at this fella':

What is that gorgeous chunky Mazinger and how can I own one?

I haven't actually played any of these games myself. I'm just recommending them based on word of mouth and the crazy good price. If I had to choose 1 of the 3 though, it'd be Fortune Summoners. The pixel art appeals to me, and this article completely sold me on the game:

Thanks for posting about Recattear Shane.

Just a heads up. It seems to be working now. Checked out with Paypal this morning and encountered no problems.

I was able to get through finally too. I agree that the shipping was alittle steep, but you're right. The game for under $30 is a great buy, seeing as most other outlets still want $40 or more for it.

I can't speak from experience about Chantelise, but here is a great article from the very awesome Pete Davison of USgamer.net trying to convince you to play Fortune Summoners.

So I hear!

Nope. I tried afew times throughout the afternoon after this article went up and got nothing. I'm gonna try a bit later tonight.
