    I just made plans - to watch paint dry.

    Why? Cause between the massive choke for everyone to grap the game and my lines, chances are I finish downloading this come monday morning, 7 minutes before they close the Beta again. :grr:

    I was going to get this, but then I decided I'd actually rather carry on playing Path of Exile instead. Especially given how laggy it is likely to get

    Unable to login in at the moment. The EU servers seem offline and the American servers are being hit hard.

    Im amazed at two things. One - that people actually thought the servers wouldnt be overloaded, and two why this piece of sh*t game took so long to make and just looks like a slightly prettier version of Torchlight.

    "piece of sh*t game"
    no, I'm sorry, this is a game done by professional developers, not by you, if you wish to diss on an entire team that dedicated themselves to make this game you can just put a gun right to your head and shoot, people like you aren't welcome where I'm from.

    I'm amazed you can assess an entire game that isn't even released yet purely on a public beta. Since it is a stress test I fully expected the servers to be overloaded. I waited patiently to log in and think the gameplay is very good. I'm looking forward to playing more tomorrow.
