Wait, Yorkshire exists in the Warhammer universe? Is this like how Middle Earth was supposed to be our earth in the past? Or do you just mean accent wise?

Other way around lad. Yorkshire is the last place on Earth where the vestiges of Brittania remain.

 

[Hobo Elf]

Being closer to Dark Alliance / Champions of Norrath than Diablo has made me a bit more interested in this title.

Accent, culture and personality. Where men are men and women are men.

What currency is that? And I thought the Canadian dollar was weak against the US. Holy crap.

 

[Theldaran]

Is it Retarded Dollar?

Okay, since I pre-ordered the magnus edition I get to play the game at 10:00am CEST on May 31. I'm working the next two nights but I'll try to get some time in and give some updated impressions on Monday or so.

Seems this game will be Diablo 3 but even worse. And with no hardcore difficulty at launch.. will it at least have offline mode?

 

[Dawkinsfan69]

$70 whew.. What makes this $70 better than PoE?

Also no necromancer class??

Well it's already on the sitez so it must have.
The game plays like a more modern, more casual, more console-y Diablo 3.
Also it seems there are basically no weapon types for the classes. Soldier gets sword and board and nothing else, which is just amazingly lazy and disappointing.

Another release with a pants-on-head retarded pricing. It's a $15-20 game, set it accordingly and some people will buy it.

 

[Grokalibre]

Downloaded that shit day1 cos my wife and I had fun playing Victor Vran in couch coop mode, well this was not worth the bandwidth used, game is awfully bland & boring.

Game$ Work$hop would disagree with this statement. They want their royalties to be as hefty as possible.

 

[Cyberarmy]

I'm a diehard WH fan and being able to play a slayer is one of my life goals.But this fucking game is fucking boring.
Great aesthetics, good hit feel, somewhat fun boss combats but fucking boring nevertheless...
Stay away, you've been warned.

This is at launch. Should I remind you what kind of mess POE was at launch too?

I'd say, keep your 70 bucks... since Chaosbane nor POE are that fulfilling anyway.

No, no Necromancer class. Only 4 shitty classes. Back to Diablo 1 reeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

As for retarded prices, wait for Octopath Traveler's 60 bucks... sheesh, those companies thinking the PC is like consoles...

 

[rusty_shackleford]

I've never seen a company license their successful IP to anyone willing to make a game for it and still fail to have a single good game dozens of games later
This is impressive

 

[Zboj Lamignat]

Let's not get overboard. There are good WH games, both fantasy and 40k.

 

[PsychoFox]

^I agree. I mean Warhammer 40K Mechanicus is phenomenal.

 

[Reinhardt]

Yeah, Shadow of the Horned Rat was great. And Dark Omen.

 

[Fedora Master]

For every good WH game there's a whole bunch of duds and/or mobile ports.

 

[frajaq]

Can't even switch weapons on this professional Empire Soldier, have to be sword and shield

I have fond memories of using Greatsword in Vermintide as Markus and honestly it's insulting I cant use it on a fucking ARPG where you cleave through tons of mobs
