while the game sounds promising, I can't help but be dissapointed by how ridiculously generic it looks. I mean Todd fucking McFarlane man. This is what he's reduced to? A wannabe WoW art style. Shit man way to go from setting the standard for comic art in the mid 90's to fucking this? _________________

I love huge RPG's like Skyrim and Fable III was quite a let down so I am eager to see how this turns out.
While I wait it's back off to Skyrim! _________________

you know this story just clicked the other day while I was at the shops.
So the game is being developed by a baseball pitcher and Todd McFarlane is doing the art. McFarlane is a massive baseball nut, tried to go pro before he became a comic artist and blew his fortune he made with image buying baseball paraphernalia.
Not really going anywhere with this, just some interesting trivia for you crazy kids. _________________

Great to see a lot of quality RPG's arriving on current gen hardware at last, the biggest problem is time or lack there of to play them !! _________________

"accessible to just about all gamers" - this little snippet makes my skin crawl.
I am so sick of developers trying to make their games accessible (especially RPG's). Like the dreaded "S" word (streamlined) - It's just another word for "dumbed down".
