That implies that MMO's are infinite.

Just played the demo and that was THE most utterly baddass 120 minutes or so of my life!
I love the art style and adore the combat. Feels a bit sluggish at times but great nonetheless
The thing is though, the world lacks a certain depth. I'll play & stay for the gameplay but the story doesn't seem all that special. The fate/destiny system coupled with the Devil May Cry style unlock-able moves give you lots of flexibility to play as you please. This game has tons of flash and finesse.

Looking at what the Chakrams & Feyblades do, I suprized this isn't a spectacle fighter like God Of War or DMC. There is something special about knocking an opponent into the air using a longsowrd and juggling him with the daggers.

Reminds me of Fallout in that I can just slaughter everyone.
Give your charecter white skin, make him bald and with Red Tattoos while wielding Feyblades and hey Kratos!

Maybe because I'm a huge fan of God of War style action gameplay
Seeing that kind of whizz bang flash coupled with the QTE executions in an RPG of all things is surprizing
If it becomes an MMO, it will be very similar to how Guild Wars 2 plays with a focus on dodging & blocking
Also, the QTE's are well implemented in that they are single button NON compulsory events that net extra XP

Addendum, Applejack is best Pony... not Rarity!

The button mashing during a Fate kill only bugs me when I can't get 100% of a bonus.

I believe overworld enemies eventualy respawn & use reckoning mode only for boosted damage & speed
The fate kills are cool though.

Enemies respawn every 3-4 days.  You can speed this up by using a bed.  I also successfully did the timer glitch on the PC (so at least it's confirmed for two platforms) before going to sleep, and ended up hitting level 8 before stopping.  The easiest way to do it is by using that invisibile barrier that gives you two warnings that you can't pass (northern most that's in the video).  All you need to do is repeatedly pause the game during the last 10 seconds until you're down to 0:01 and then do a roll forward so that you get the double popup saying that you can't enter.  This overrides the timer popup. :ph34r:

That would have to be 75% since they are intervals of 25%.  I dunno how you press the button, but I just put the controller on my leg when I am about to hit "A" and then mash it with my thumb.  It resting on my leg makes it bounce slightly so the inputs happen faster.  Actually, I'm not even really "pressing" the button with just my thumb, it's more like resting the top of my thumb on the button and moving the rest of my hand like a jackhammer.

The button presses aren't what get me, it's actually hitting the correct button as soon as it pops up that does me in. :blush:

Heh yeah I kind of wish they had a specific button for weapon styles they use for the kills but if it was more static it would be to easy to always hit 100%. And that being the closest thing they have to a QTE I'm very happy with its implementation... hello bonus XP.

I own a Razer Onza Tournament Edition Controller, so its actually much easier to repeatedly hit the face buttons than say on a regular 360 controller.

Problem is the initial button press. If you press the wrong button first, you're pretty much screwed.

If you can hit the correct button first and spam it, you should be good.

Played the demo and got my items for Xbox... Waiting on the PC version to download.

Was interesting enough, although I don't think it's really for me.

Yeah me too. I got 1 1/2 more play throughs I need to get done of ME2 before Amalur comes out but waiting on them is distracting me from playing ME2 in preparation for ME3... it's aggrivating.

I need to finish my carryover save for Mass Effect 3 and I still haven't decided to have the romance path be Ash-loyal or Ash-Tali.

Ergh.

KoA is going to get in the way, but only briefly. The ME games override everything else I play.

Hense my multiple save files. I believe you can pick any save file that's completed the game (allowing DLC after a completion). I got my main who was with Liara, wanted to be with Tali but couldn't and, hey ME2 - Tali. Liara understood in LotSB, see if that even counts in ME3.

2nd play through was a fresh start in ME2 using gensis, wasn't with anyone, got with Jack.
3rd im working on now is an Adept, was with Ashley in ME1, will remain true for ME3 - little over halfway done with that one.
4th is my Infiltrator, he'll remain loyal to Liara if I can work up the motivation to finish third and start/beat this one.

Plan to do a second save on the Adept play through to quick-romance Miranda so I can see what jealous/angry Ashley looks like and, also, how that plays out with Miranda in ME3. I have more then enough time since I don't do N7 missions. Just the main stuff, loyal, DLC stuff. Still hit 30 with all that but cut out a good bit of running around. Just a matter of sittng down and actually 'doing' it.

The demo didn't ask me to login to EA's server i.e. I didn't give them my login and password to Origin. Is that normal?

Maybe it knows from past EA games I played?

edit: Just to clarify, I'm on Xbox 360.

I'm the kind of guy who can only carryover one canon save.

So I'll have to make a tough choice.

Wow, that is weird though. I started the demo through Origin (so it should already have known me) and it still asked me to log in. If the game could read your login data from previous games, that would be really strange, wouldn't it?

The demo itself was fun enough. At the beginning I was a bit worried because I only got a black screen until I deactivated post processing with my AMD Radeon 4750. The overall world was nice, I like the way they have semi open areas and which allows them to tell a coherent and concise story and still gives the player the opportunity of exploration. I don't like the colorful comic style though. I'll take Skyrims nordic dirty look over it an day.

Anyway, items secured and on I go with my ME stuff.

Was the same for me. Should be tied to your GamerTag, assuming it's associated with your EA/Bioware account. The stuff will appear on the user entitlements page if it's all good: http://social.biowar...ntitlements.php

Well, technically my Vanguard Shep is my only, in my mind, 'Canon Shep'. The other's are born out of a desire to see how other stuff plays out. Which you can't really see with out importing. I probably wouldn't do this much if I just knew exactly how, and what choices you get to make starting a new char in ME3.

But BioWare, being BioWare, thinks mystery is this majestic thing they love smearing in are faces. I personally dislike not knowing mechanics, its not a mystery that's fun to unravel. If we're really lucky the demo will have the choice-thing at the start but I doubt it. Least we get full character customization, male/female, all 6 classes. That parts pretty sweet.
