I saw someone mentioning OFF in their forum. I bet it was one of the gentlemen from this thread.

Live with the Edmonton Orchestra was my second LP ever. The first was Pendulum from Creedence Clearwater Revival.

I need to see the fin, Lou. It could be an Albatros or a Halberstadt, just looking for it. But I leave it to the experts.

Perhaps a Halberstadt D.II...

Monty Pynton, just love it.

They say that they are going to patch for higher resolutions. Unfortunately no MP nor Key binding. I guess this could depend on the PC sells. But it's a fun game, and for this price it's very worthwhile. WWI ambiance is quite well recreated.

Exactly. It also reminds me some of the Electro-Mechanical arcades from the sixties and seventies. It seems, they have a Cold War also for XBOX. But what I need is also a WW2 and a Napoleonic theme.

Finally it was ported to PC. On Steam: http://store.steampo....com/app/98300/ €6,75 until Friday. It seems it brings all the XBOX DLC included.

Because you used the word phenomenal in describing on how will be, and that's a strong word. Those games which I've mentioned are phenomenal, inspiring/inspired, classical. I could include Diablo 2 (haven't played D1) on that list.

You know what happens when everything resumes to money. I go for work for money, but not only for that. Yes D3 will be "phenomenal" like WoW is "phenomenal". Probably not in the sense how Elite, Pacman, Tetris, Ultima, Baldur's Gate, (just to name the few) were. Undoubtedly It will sell well, that's it. It's filled with fanboys and haters, it would be nice to have a demo to discern well. And like any other merges, yes it will affect. Will have to agree on disagree.

Money related, that's for sure. You know how the corporate mentality works....

Yes, that's why I don't believe it will be on sale. I doubt that Blizzard is the same after the merge with Activision. Did you know that they now promote Kung-Fu Panda? Sorry redpiano, I know it's not D3 related, but I just couldn't resist.

I can't.this weekend. Besides the servers are filled.There are a lot of people complaining they can't log in. So they can't play the beta. Glad to hear it's only with mana and not health. Well, depending on the place I'm playing. I play in two different houses, and in one I don't have Internet connection. So I usually avoid this kind of requirement. Other reasons is like you've said, I want to be able to play whenever I want , not depending on thirds, like is the server on, or is my Internet up or down, etc. So or the demo will be pretty exceptional or I want buy it. If there will be no demo, I still can consider if it drops to 10€ in a sale, which I hardly think it will happen, it's Blizzard (Activision) after all. So probably I'll pass.

@redpiano Some of the things that you don't mind that they have streamlined, I really dislike. I just plain hate quick automatic regeneration of any sort. I know it's the current trend, but it feels refreshing when playing "Fallout: New Vegas" to feel how most of the games were. It's true they have made Diablo fro PS1, but the times were different. It was created with the idea of being played in PC, with a mouse and a keyboard, not with six action buttons of a gamepad. The games today, when are multiplatform, they usually are made with the consoles in mind. I'll try a demo, if it comes out. But with the permanent online requirement, the game would have to interest me a lot in order to buy it. As for the PoE, it's online, it doesn't really interest me. Torchlight II, it's too cartoony, I agree. So it only rests Grim Dawn. I hope that will be better that Titan Quest. It's just hope. Anyway it's just a In defense of the devs I believe they had a lot of problem with the publisher during the development of Titan Quest.

How does it work that real money auction houses? And will I have to be always online even to play a single player campaign? For me streamline is usually connected with a dumb down version, usually connected with a console release. Will we expect a console version, to justify this dumbing down?

Or go for this one, instead: :) I've pledge it. These are the guys who have made Titan Quest, but now without the imbecile restrains of the publishers, the game will be less bland. It will have a more Victorian ambiance (no Steam punk) it has guns as well. This is the feature list: What you've said about Diablo III, fits perfectly what I've already heard from other players saying.

Yes, it's a matter of taste. I too personally prefer without saturation, that reminds me the other WW1 sim, and that was always one of the things that I prefer on OFF. Sure, it's more eye-candy, but less accurate. Anyway thanks for heads up, Hellshade. I know that I will probably have to exchange my graphic color in this fall. Main reason for that is ArmAIII and OFF2. And I'm really wondering what would be the best for those two future games, ATI or Nvidia. Never had so much doubts. It's not only in the Northern Europe. We in the Western part do have it also. Not always but it's common.

Don't give OBD ideas for releasing only in 21th December.

Sorry Olham, but the countdown says precisely 244 days. I wouldn't mind spent my last 30 days in this world. playing OFF 2. I'm sure I would endure better my ordeals in the after world.

That's precisely my point... it seems we will not have a 2013, at least according to some. I would really like much to be able to play this game before the end of the world. http://www.december212012.com/ Official countdown: http://www.2012supplies.com/countdown.html

I was thinking to eventually making a sound mod for P3, thanks to my last "hobby" in making sound mods. But your work is quite good, Andy. I'll think doing it for P4, if indeed we will need one at all.

Give me the address Pol, and I'll send Portuguese canned sardines and tuna, Portuguese Ham, Portuguese green wine and bottle of Porto, that like any British gentleman, will surely appreciate at the end of the meal. You won't starve, I promise.

And whatever else you want.... I'll bring a copy of Skyrim 2 and Elder Scrolls 7.

Hellshades videos are really inspiring.
