if you have stram then you can try a free demo, but its really different
1) cities are now always manned and get a free ranged 2-3 square attack each turn so there harder to take
2) only 1 unit per square so sieges are easier to break and such
3) theres a different use for culture, now instead of just incr the border its used to buy civ upgrade (replaced govs) witch is a mechanic i love
4) there are neutral city-states witch you can but influence over for bonuses and can get to join you in a war, or just annex via invasion
5) ... well a whole lot moer... like hexagons instead of squares and better graphics

Im in. I just wonder if its lame to use my form name as a char name. I use Daith for all my characters

How about this for post apoc: @00 years after a global nuclear war destroyed all society small city states are still struggling to survive. Almost all technology has been lost, save for weapons and a few battered bots of military design, while most water contaminated by radiation as well as most food. In addition to the dangers of radiation, starvation and thirst are the ever present threat from lawless raiders, Hulking mutants who want to kill all non-mutated life and savage beasts made more so by their own mutations. Now as you appear on the scene it becomes your duty to stop the vestiges of the old government and their genocidal plans while fighting to survive in this unhospitable wasteland of a world

Act 2 is taking a very different direction that I appreciate. The difference is grit. Some of those early dungeons show overly smoothed textures on clean dungeon floors, in act 2 we now have that touch of detail that was missing.

IDK I think this is going to go like Starcraft 2. That started off looking kinda plasticy, but ended up looking completely faithful with a few tweaks. I'm betting D3 is heading this direction as well, despite Blizzard's earlier attempt to defend their art style. Yes some of the proportions will probably remain slightly cartoony, but I expect textures and colors to come more in line.

Took the words right out of my mouth. In any case, from what I remember, the Diablo III graphics for the Act II demo were incredible. One can only imagine what the final product is going to be like...

Just remember, the act 2 screens are newer for the most part. That grit may be there now and we just dont know it yet.

I don't think runes will add mf or gold drop. Golden will probably be something like decreased resource cost. indigo was use as a multi strike example by bash so ill stick with that. Obsidian could be vamp, crimson increased damage or dot and alabaster could be the wild-card rune since bash mentioned that there would probably be one such rune.

Also, rune effects are not universal and will change so crimson could be either damage or dot and obsidian could be a healing effect on non-attack skills

Jetrall - ya, i guess the difference between them was one was a violent malicious act while one was ment as comedy. But if that was your point, as you pointed out in your second post, then yes i must agree and my bad.

Snibbon - props to you all in Sweden.
I still think the female only breast caner stuff over here is a bit bull tho

Some valid points. I don't quite agree with every thing the video said, and the two youtube clips were a slight bit lopsided, but you do make your point. Why not a prostate cancer awareness month? It is more prevalent if I recall. Or how about male inclusion in breast cancer awareness, since we can get it too.

Just beat it an hour ago, got way too adicted, played like 20+ hours, still more to explore and 5 more classes

The game is fun as ass hell and I love the new combat system, but i miss the weapon/armor variety and the higher lvl cap. There were also some mino glitches, but other than that its better than ME 1 in every way

I do love the new skills, quite fun for most of em'

Sapper - saps player life/skill resource/stats

Linked - Like a shaman (who raises the mob) of a mob boss (like the guys who keep the fallen from fleeing) may also give buffs

Thief - idk... probably steals orbs as mentioned before

I only check one or two times a day. And here I thought I checked the site alot XP
