Aside from a few movies that look like the ingame engine compared to the diablo ones(a game that has appeard a few years ago) and the storyline which doesn't offer anything and makes you think that at least the first game didn't pretend to have a interesting and imersive storyline the game is very dissapointing practicaly leveling down everything good that the first part had to offer and making it a BIG DISSAPOINTEMENT.
I understand that tastes are diferent from one person to another but this game is a "downgrade". |
Did you pay for it? - I don't think so!
Did anybody force you to dl the game? - I don't think so!
Did anybody force you to play? - I don't think so!
So please do us all a big favor - stfu and go back to diablo

he has some valid points there too. Although i m totally hooked on the game at the moment, i also feel that the game has its shortcomings.

inch or minutes?
i love when people dont tell what scale they use =)
I d give it 6.5/10 for gfx and sound, as its basically the old engine
7/10 for gameplay as its repetitve, but still has a good balance between going straight thru and doing every available side-quest possible
6/10 for story as its not really good, some parts even stupid, but still good enough for such a game
3/10 for movies. I came to expect either much better or at least rendered in the game-engine, but as it is now, its pretty fucked up
The funny thing is though, that all objective ratings aside, i m totally addicted to it and i love every second of playing it So my combined rating would be an 11/10 really

I'm not a Diablo fanathic.I personally like RPGs that have a more complex storyline like BG2,Planescape Torment & CO. My primary pain in the ass is that they made another huge hype about this game and in the end it turned out(at least for me and another bunch of RPG fans) to be wayyyyy below expectations.
Like I said it depends on taste.
I usually try the game free before I buy it(I consider that a smart move ->don't you) and who'se gonna stop me from doing that...you Samiel:).
But enough talk if you like it then play...personally...I think it's crap.

There is no possible way you actually read any of the "huge hype" about this game if you had expectations of it being a serious RPG. DS1 was a really lame Diablo II clone, so expecting the sequel to be anything more than DS1 with most of the stuff that made it (and even more so, the expansion) suck fixed is pretty silly. In that regard, they succeeded, because it's a much better game than the original.
But is it GOTY material? I sure hope not, because that will mean the second half of 2005's releases suck just as much as the vast majority of the first half's.
And other than one crash as a cutscene was starting up, I haven't seen any technical issues at all, even on a mediocre system with all the graphics options turned on.

Are you telling me that Microsoft released a patch, to fix problems, and didn't tell us that if installed, saved games would be gone. Is there any way to get saved game back?

So vet mode is actually worth it? I started playing but the haku areas are just too painful to have to play through a second time. Plus I really hate my current party.
But if the drops actually change and you see new mobs, it'd be worth it.

it's a shame there isn't some form of reward for most contradictive post ever made cause you're definitely a nominee.
Also, please keep trolling. I'm enjoying your funny moon speak.

Jeez, some right faggots in here. Wouldn't it be better to talk about dungeon siege rather then the size of your dicks you pathetic bastards.
As it is, i'm enjoying the game, but I haven't spent that much time on it yet because i'm playing a few other things.

Basically it goes a little something like this;
Quote: | Hi folks,
GPG is aware of several hacked versions of DS2 being available. Please be aware that savegame incompatibilities between the legitimate retail version and the hacked versions will cause savegames to become invalidated as certain compatibility checkpoints are passed, and as we update the game. Any issues encountered with these hacked versions will be unpatchable and unresolvable with any savegames the hacked versions create.
We won't be able to help with any problem on a system with a hacked EXE. Nor will any of our patches work with a hacked EXE. And since the hacked EXEs don't create compatible saves, you won't be able to switch back to the normal EXE to patch, and then load in the hacked savegames. If you are using a cracked EXE, your savegames are already unrecoverable. Please stop now and restart with a legitimate installed version of the game.
GPG wishes to support legitimate bugs encountered to the best of our ability. If you know you are using a cracked version, the information you provide will not be useful in our investigations, as you have a myriad of bugs all your own to contend with. |
Essentially any save games you have during the use of the 2.0 cracked exe will not work with 2.1 cracked or not. It hasnt made me go n buy the game, infact its made me stop and uninstall it because i cant be bothered to go through all of it again....
