    I'm awaiting this game in Feb 2012. If you haven't heard or read about it I think it's going to be a good game. The latest demo had me drooling so I went ahead and preordered the game :)

    The animation is smooth, silky smooth it appears, although graphics are on the more simpler side. The three main classes are great and reminds me of the good old Dungeon Siege games, not the 3rd mind you that one sucked bad. Hybrids are possible as well of course.

    In addition you have, what I sincerely hoped, very good production values. RA Salvatore wrote the world, McFarland probably the characters and animations (fighting, etc.) and another person which I'm forgetting at this moment...oh, one of the guys Oblivion :)

    Check out the videos and let me know what you think about the game.

    I've been keeping an eye on this for a while. If it is anything like Dragon Age: Origins, I'm game. But... only if it's $40 or less. $60's too much.

    then you will have to wait for at least a month for a price drop. Or some deals from Kmart or amazon.
