I've only heard high praise of the first one, something like it being a better Bioware game than the games that Bioware make today. But now that the second game is almost out I think I'll go straight to that. After L.A. Noire and Dirt 3 that is

The first one is on sale for $5 on gog.com for the month, no drm.

I need to finish that one before I jump to the second.

Yup, very eager to play this. Pre ordered the premium edition from amazon.co.uk just now for £24

When does the first one get good? I've put about 5 hours in, and each time I stop, I come out feeling like I've clicked more times than you would on a Facebook game and Torchlight combined, only with less progress and satisfaction.

I hope so. As history has shown, aggressive DRM isn't the solution.

Really like it so far, more of a hack and slash then the last one. Thats better in my books. Graphics are a beaut too.

This game is pretty good. Shame about the combat, I didn't think they could make it worse!

I think its much better. Still could use some work. I do miss the stances though, just not that repetitive click system from the first game.

Dark called in "sick" at work today, guess what he was doing on Steam all day ;P!

Nope. The combat is ruining this game for me, I am so close to uninstalling it right now - all I do is die because of how unresponsive it is. The sound is fucked as well, you have to do some silly hack with you drivers to make it play anything. Ugh.

I want to like this game but it's slapping me away.

Same feeling about the combat, pretty awful.

LOl you guys suck at the game is the only problem Its very challenging, and I guess they made it this way to keep it challenging. Its not the best solution, that's for sure, but keep trying and you will get the hang of it. It's all about timing your attacks, being sword swings, magic, traps, bombs, etc. Once you get this down, you wont have trouble anymore. It gets really fun when you understand how it works.

No sound issues for me Dux, but I heard there have been driver issues with some sound cards.
