I'm honestly skeptical of claiming anything even remotely resembling D2 given how little similarity there's been in D3 to it (and how good PoE is), but I appreciate the specific claims and explanations.

Are the patch notes wrong? I was reading them as saying that monsters will always be your level, which denies you certain options in playing. Well, regardless I might boot up the game myself later today, we'll see.

Sort of curious, but with that once bitten feel to it. On top of that, the whole level scaling idea is horribly off putting, the other changes aside - and I don't like the sound of all of them.

That would've been great, but honestly I would've even liked just some basic discussion of what they're working on, or really any new announcement at all. As it is, the most important thing mentioned was the music integration possibility. Guess that's something, but overall it felt very empty of content. Owell, was a…

So far I haven't seen any new reveals at a cursory glance through his posts. Disappointing, to be honest while I wasn't sure what I was expecting specifically in terms of information, I was at least expecting something I admit.

Either I'm an optimist, or more likely my expectations have grown ever lower about these announcements.

I made it all the way to "free to play", before my reaction hit rock bottom.

I don't know about that, I actually like them. That said, I have to admit I've never hit the point they were the only thing I was eating, which would... Probably kill my occasional fondness for them. They're ridiculously tasty for the price though.

I considered not posting this, but God as a game developer made me think about it. So hell, here's a classic. The most hilarious part of this for me is it sounds sort of MMO like now that I'm considering it. It has arbitrary rules, fetch quests, requires basic fees, and the player base is continually pissed off by the…

I like her, but I need to say this with some caveats. First one being that I like her, relative to the last few entries in the series (Vaan and Tidus were enormous downsides to their games as far as I'm concerned, they affected me much like nails on a chalkboard). Second, that just because I like her doesn't mean I…

I like that Hidden Path Entertainment is involved, though I hope this doesn't delay DG2. I also love the concept. I do have some vague doubts on the Harmonix part, but the idea itself is cool enough that this is something I want to play regardless.

Switch to a passsword manager, barring extreme effort in memorization there's no feasible way to manually manage secure passwords in this day and age, there are simply too many needed.

I've never played these games, but suddenly I want to.

The point about a JRPG which delved into more... risque areas, is something I'd love to see done, regardless of whether they'd necessarily be a smash hit. That said, while I'm not personally much of a fan of Pokemon, I'd argue it does qualify for the sort of mega success discussed here. As far as specifically opening…

Disappointed to be honest, I've been waiting on an announcement. While I felt BL2 was a more polished, complete game on the whole, it simply didn't occupy me the way the original did (due to reductions in loot variety), and I've been hoping to use BL1 to scratch my loot itch soon. Owell, maybe I'll go back to PoE.

Ok, I've got to admit I really like those style choices. I'm a skeptic about the game, but on the other hand they do appear dedicated if nothing else.

Unless that's what they wanted, since it drums up sales. Seems like similar logic to major discounts in sales, where the purpose is to convince the customer it's a deal they can't pass up, even if they wouldn't have bought it before.

On average it has earned 17k a day, but that's skewed by the early days (where it earned over 100k a day). Even with the recent boost in backers, it only earned 16k yesterday, and prior to that was fairly dead.

I was actually just noticing the same thing, went on KS and pledged (admittedly late), and was shocked that it wasn't into the stretch goal area. Personally, I think this one can be partially marked down to the campaign it ran, since looking at other recent KS video game successes, it certainly doesn't seem to be a…

That seriously disappointed me, your post seemed to imply the digital version was on sale. Owell, I'm just looking around for an MMO to distract me, guess I'll play something else. Though it amuses me that Amazon is trying to get rid of hard copies.
