damn, that was cold-hearted grommie. picking on the less fortunate that way! (ohh right) ;)

i'm thinking a nickel whore is better than the alternative at the moment. DS2 might get a visit from taks (demo first, of course).

Is it possible that other parts of your opinion is arguable?

70 hours of click-click-clickety-click?

I played the demo that came with PCGamer. Its not a click fest. Right click once on the enemy and then your character starts hacking and slashing.

No, Rex is just an idiot. You can't argue with those. Hence: unarguable.

Yes
You just have to kill every damn thing. And why would one person be motivated to do that unless someone evil has pissed you off and you have to kill everything. We toyed with the idea of having your enemy be the 'good' guy, but that just confused people.

So why is the special someone evil? JUST BECAUSE? Man, that shit sucks.

And Exitium is pulling a Volourn with that 'thats just what they do!' thing.

I guess people just get too confused if they're faced with an opposition that isn't inherently evil.

Hey maybe that's why people disliked IWD2!?

Behind you.
Chris Taylor was the designer on Total Annihilation, which is one of the best RTS games ever made. In fact, it's pretty much ruined me for all other RTS games out there. That said, he also did Dungeon Siege, which is probably the one of the worst action CRPG with as much hype as it had(that D.W. Bradley didn't have his name on).
