Can't tell, despite being well above minimum specs my ancient laptop can't run it worth shit. Someone with slightly less ancient laptop give it a go, but otherwise I'll try it on my old gaming PC tomorrow.

A demo would be nice... the console versions had one. I'm tired of buying these "cheap" downloadable games and then never playing them.

Yeah, because anything made by Richard Garriott, Sid Meier or Peter Molyneux is automatically good.

I played the console demo once. The gameplay is a pretty "streamlined" version of Diablo 2. You could assign different weapons, spells and items to the buttons on your gamepad, but you can't attack with more than one at the same time. There are no classes to choose from. Instead of a skill tree, you get to select a new perk every level. Most equipment has level requirements. Monsters have levels but I'm not sure if there is level scaling. Dying means you drop gold, but you can just go back and pick some of it up again. Any item that you didn't pick up ends up in a "lost and found" box.

I didn't particularly enjoy this game's humor style. I liked much of the humor featured in the first Monkey Island, but this one kinda felt like they were trying too hard. The art direction is generally nice, but the screen tends to become very cluttered by particle effects when in combat with more than one or two enemies at a time. The complete game's campaign is apparently 10 hours long.

So, to sum it up in one word, this game is SHIT.

I hereby declare Fable series to be the pinnacle of quality old school RPGs. Because Molyfag made them.

PS. try to breathe in every once in a while between your sucking sessions, Trash. Continued blockage of oxygen causes brain damage, as evidenced.

Tried the demo ages ago at a friends house. Pretty lame. Jokes weren't funny and gameplay was boring. The humor was pretty much "hurp durp RPG conventions RPG conventions RPG conventions RPG conventions RPG conventions RPG conventions" while still following said RPG conventions.

You got the wrong guy there. I think you're looking for Mr S. Trawman.

Man, someone is looking for attention. What's up with all the sand in your vagina lately?

Better to have vagina and sand in it than just sand and nothing else in your skull, I guess, but I wouldn't know.

No it's more like this:

Gameplay will suck but the humour will be great.

But I'll still try it out... but not before BBLE

It's kinda funny how Tim Schafer is practically the only one among the great classic game-devs who still makes games that are even slightly worthwhile...
