Looks neat but is it any good?

Worth downloading the demo?

Its Fable with an open world and God of War/Dante's Inferno combat.

Haven't played it on PC yet, but watching Dan play it I can safely assume that the controls are pretty wonky, just like every buttonsmash port.

Good to know. I always assume control are going to suck but that's because I'm used to WoW's control scheme and like no one uses that scheme, they all try to make a better one that ends up worse.

Then again, maybe it's all just because I'm only really used to WoW.

WoW teaches you to play with QWES instead of WASD and uses the number keys. How is there a difference? Man up and swap the "Use" and "Move Right" keys around and whatever Q is bound to with "Move Left"

I use ESDF for movement.

is that weird?


Also, kingdom of amalur? anyone play?

I just played it for about a hour. The controls on the PC handle really well. The only thing is that, as always in button smashers, the camera's a little wonky. You can mix and match from the 3 skill trees (sneak, fight, and magic) and play whatever you want. I'm going for a blademaster spec where I wear leather armor (although I might just wear as little armor as possible) and wield a giant fuckoff sword.

It's fun

Magic and Finesse are stupid overpowered though.

I use WASD actually. Q and E are hotkeys. I was speaking more along the lines of being able to move with your mouse.

I love strafing!

I'm level 2 running around with a greatsword and 2-shotting most normal enemies.

Pro athletes make Pro games ?

I played the Demo through and I really enjoyed it... until I stole some shit from a cave with guards in it and they NEVER forgave me, so I spent the next hour trying to do quests while kiting dudes that would 2shot me if they caught up(which was its own kind of fun). I played it with keyboard and mouse but I think it would feel better for me with a 360 controller, as the game seems built around a small number of hotkeys(switching spells onto your mouse VIA the number keys). My brother has the full version but I'm not sure how much he has played it yet.

I hear the world was originally intended to be for an MMO but they decided they needed to have games out ahead of time to build the lore and the rep of 38 Studios, so they made this and I heard they are working on an RTS or something as well.

I will def play through it after my brother finishes it, he takes for ever though :[

It means you play Unreal (and hence are a member of the master race).

I hear Amalur is good from a story perspective, but that the controls are so designed for a gamepad that it's disgusting. In short, it's easier to handle if you jack a 360 controller into your PC than if you try to play it mouse/keyboard because it reacts that poorly to superior input.

This is all secondhand, mind you.

Haha <3.

Its probably the best port I've seen when it comes to the controls, tbh.

They were revolting on the demo, but that was just a demo. Didn't see much on the lets plays and shit to convince me there was much of an improvement with the final release.

If i did buy it for PC i'd play with a controller. It's clear some things just aren't made equal.
