I've watched Kripp's Video and it looks a lot like Guild Wars 2. I did not like GW2 all that much. :/

profixI've watched Kripp's Video and it looks a lot like Guild Wars 2. I did not like GW2 all that much. :/

My 2c:

The only thing similar is the combat sorta - in that it's more ARPG-ish, but tbh Neverwinter probably has the best feeling combat out of any MMO. Everything just feels meaty and like it's actually impacting people. Plus it's a lot more active than GW2 as far as using your skills goes, but it's less mobile (since attacking/using skills roots you like normal MMOs), plus there's slightly more aiming involved compared to GW2. So similar, but kinda different feels still.

Otherwise it's very much normal MMO as far as the structure goes - have to PvE to PvP, no World PvP, typical zone quest structure, no dynamic events or w/e just some timed special events. The Cash Shop is pretty awful and there's a lot of things in it that should not be in it (like ability point respecs), it's borderline pay to win almost or at least way too cash grabby.

However, it's not very grindy as far as levels goes, and the Foundry is a really neat idea from CoH + STO refined into a game where it just makes a ridiculous amount of sense. Being able to have players make their own stories/quests/dungeons/etc and have other players do them as leveling content is just awesome in a game based off of Dungeons & Dragons.

Did they release a major content patch to make the game go from being crap to not crap?

I played the beta (alpha?) a month or two ago and I wasn't really impressed at all.

No, if you didn't like the beta a month ago, you won't like it now. TBH I don't even think it's that great, I just like the Foundry mostly.

I guess like most MMOs these days, it will last for a few weeks and be kinda fun with friends, but that's the extent of it.

I had a HUGE amount of hype for this. Expecting more top-down fun from my days loving infinity engine games.

I was a little disappointed by the whole endeavor.

Am I reading this right? Planescape: Torment 2? I don't know if I should be really happy they're making a sequel to the best game ever or be depressed it will never live up to my expectations.

I really hope they pull it off. I have very serious doubts. But if the kickstarter actually succeeds and they pull off a game (AND HOPEFULLY FIX THE ENGINE, AGAIN) I'll play it.

It's not a sequel, it's a spiritual successor made by pretty much the same people using the Tides of Numera universe and the same design goals Torment stood by.
