I've seen it mentioned sporadically but it hasn't gotten its own thread yet.

I downloaded it a couple days back and I'm really enjoying it. I love the customization options and the implementation of the sphere grid... and the gear dependency makes looting even more fun than Diablo 2 was.

I'm a level 18 or 19 shadow (named Aullios) right now and my addiction is just getting started.

I've heard that this game is what Diablo III should have been

Ive loved it. Ive been playing hardcore. I lost a 39 shadow and 37 ranger.

The passive sphere is soo much fun. I made a new shadow and im running a evasion build. Gonna go heavy armor and evasion hp and spec into a bunch of 1h and dagger abilities to up dmg. Well see how it works out.

Its really fun due to the sphere and being able to make totally unique characters every time.

Played a little bit. Seems pretty good, just not crazy about the controls.

I enjoy just exploring the sphere grid. I'll get a few levels and see where I'm going, and then see a cool sphere to move towards next.. and then see more options I could have taken... so many possibilities.

Right now I'm a melee claw shadow with some crit spheres. Just picked up Assassination for like 40% crit chance and 20% crit damage

I've never partied in game before so I'd like to see how that works. Add me, my player name is the OP

I'll probably be on in an hour or so when I get home from work.

The party system isnt great IMO.

The loot is free for all, the devs wanted to keep that cut throat aspect to the game. Magic/Rare/Scrolls etc all have a 1 sec timer where the are assigned to a person. After 1 sec they are free for all. Kinda screws the ranged, but if you run with people who are cool you should be set.

that sounds pretty shitty. That's the one thing D3 did right IMO

I would be if I wasn't invested so heavily into D3.

Don't want to start another time consuming game ATM.

Just started playing last night. I'm enjoying it so far. Hard to complain when the game is free.
