This is the very thing that a lot of people hate and seem to be split on.

Man, what a bummer and awful situation.

Honestly, while I had a blast with permadeath in a game like Dungeons of Dredmor, there's no way I'm trying a hardcore character in Diablo III until they get the lag issues completely ironed out.

Yeah - I'm in the same boat in the US.

I completely agree with you hear. It's just a shame to see this happening.

Interesting - thanks for the info on that!

I'm out of town for another week, and thus have been playing the game on my laptop - specs here:

Bummer. I had a feeling this wouldn't be very good, due to the developer's past releases all being critically reamed. However, I had started to get my hopes up a little, after seeing the first gameplay video and getting a bit of a 'Dragon Age' vibe. It looks like that didn't happen, which is a shame.

Today was a lot better for me.

I feel genuinely bad for these folks. Sure, Amalur didn't have the most engaging story ever, but it was a fun game with solid voice acting and was quite pretty to look at.

I'm enjoying playing as the barbarian right now. I had a ton of lag and disconnect issues last night which were frustrating as all hell, but today it's seemed a lot better.

I'm starting to feel justified for my reddit post earlier that got downvoted into oblivion, after I joked, "I hope the number isn't in regard to the amount of errors..." - referring to today's earlier error 317002.

I can corroborate this.

Glorious work as always.

Oh gosh, so that's what that is.

I ended up with this lovely error.

I typically go for the sword wielding types.

Ha. Bravo.

Cyanide doesn't have a great track record, but I think this could actually be decent.

This is among my favorite things to happen this week.
