Ha - I forgot it was the 1st April. :argh: It took until reading the comments until I worked out it was a joke. Well done for avoiding the easy path of a Grimoire release schedule.

I did find myself worrying about whether it had been selling well with such a momentous announcement, and worrying about whether it would be implemented well, worrying about whether Josh had lost his role as the avatar of balance, and worrying whether the game would turn into Arcanum 2.

Thanks, you bastards, at least I have less to worry about now. :(

You like worrying.

Some hacker should crack the source code and implement this stuff - a self fulfilling prophecy in my book. 1st of April or not.

Glad I didn't play this on release with stupid RTWP system. I would be feeling like a fool now. That's why I wait at least 6 months (for patches and new features) before I play any modern game.

I had the happiest minute of my life in last 3 or 4 months and then i understood. Fall damage was never that painful. Still, i think TB wouldn't hurt this game, pathfinding is shit and it basically turns into TB anyway on hard difficulty if you want to win tough battles with non-ideal comp like mine.

:dead:

Well played, well played.

I was disappointed for a mere second moment when my brain registered as april fool's joke, but I do enjoy PoE current combat very much and thus only say one word which is enough to show my feelings about learning when turn-based combat was nothing more than a a prank.

"Meh"

Well played.

Ah the age old tradition of "never believe anything on the internet on the 1st of april" is never headed.

Fuck you Zed. You only got me because I just woke up. Normally, I would've seen it coming from miles away... seriously.

You think this is a fucking joke? Is this funny to you?
fucking hell, my heart stopped for a second and then I realized that there is nothing better that could happen to this game than a TB combat, I realized I was on the codex and then remembered the date and I felt such a disappointment. Only goes to show how much we all really want this=/
