After playing the demo at first i was pleased with what they have done and started to think this would be a good game to buy, theres lots of innovative things that they have implemented BUT i still think it is 2 limiting.(skill wise)
The other thing that worries me is their emphasis on party members, now for me i play a RPG because i dont want the hassle of looking after 50 different characters like in a RTS, when playing DSII it almost feels like your building a bot that you can use in other partys rather than a character that is yours, anyone else feel this?
I read some info that said that DSII was alot less automated and would be harder to master than DS, whats so hard about throwing on some automated skills and letting the bots do the work for you. i also had trouble finding the hotkeys to switch between skills, am i not allowed to manually switch between ice blast and healing myself with the press of a button???do i HAVE to have it as automated?.
if anyone knows the answer to this it would be greatly appreciated. And no it is not acceptable to have to switch between skills/weapons by clicking on them.
I played the demo and would play the full version solo with 1 character or with other REAL people, but if you were to play solo u miss out on certain areas due to those sanctuary doors, almost like its forcing you to have a party of bots.
Guess ill just have to find a torrent for this one. 6/10
