Recently i played a bit of the demo.. I was pretty happy with it.. This game is set to release on the 9th i believe on all 3 platforms PS3, XBOX and PC... correct me if im wrong...

what are your thoughts on this game?

set to release on the 9th on steam
Yeah I'm playing the demo and liking it so far. The gameplay is very much like Divinity 2: The Dragon Knight Saga or The Witcher, in that it's a semi-linear hack-and-slash. Magic is very cool in this game too.

apparently just the demo is linear, past that its more open :)
I enjoyed the demo even though it was broken.

What was broken? I had some graphical artifacting.
Felt like another Fable title to me. It has my interest, probably not a day one purchase for me though, i still haven't got into Skyrim yet!
Also, a little buggy isn't it? i've had the demo crash on me and when i loaded the demo on PS3 my character loaded with no head which was funny :P
they said the demo was an older build or something???? they promised on the forums it wont be as buggy
Bad graphics, loose controls, generic vocie acting and NPC's I'll pass thanks.

Little harsh, the graphics are fairly decent the controls are fine. I get the generic voice acting and NPC's though.
Bad graphics? I didn't see anything wrong with them. 'Bad graphics' is when a game looks like Rage.
i like that kinda bright art style... it just looks nice.. not so dark
I'm going to give it a shot!

Are you going to buy it when it comes out Mandy? If you do you should write a review on what you thought of the final release :D

i might get the steam version.. its only $59.. :)

Crashing, sound disappearing, that kind of thing. I played through it three times and had issues on each play through.
I'm probably going to buy it, if only for the story. I'll persevere through any bugs.

Graphics compared to current ps3 games? It seems a step backwards. The only saving grace I thought were the RPG elements were good.

That's pretty a reasonable price indeed.
Well I still hope to see a review! *_*

Same. They claim that it's all sorted now though. Old build blah blah blah...
I enjoyed Divinity 2 a lot, and this game looks like it will deliver more of that kind of thing. I also didn't get any crashing or funniness on my PC aside from the aforementioned artifacting. I will probably buy this when I have cash.
if you preorder on steam you get special hats for team fortress 2 :P
MY DEMO IS BROKEN [Rage]

if its the steam version you need to disable post processing on the video settings for it not to be black

I haven't played Divinity 2, I'll have to check it out. I thought this felt like Fable.

Naw Fable was crappy. Divinity 2 was good.
I'm not disagreeing ;)
