This game rocks.. If Oblivion wasn't fast enough for you, sick of the lame levelling up and lame quests... DarkMessiah is just the opposite. Fast moving and awesome fighting. Having played the MP beta and SP demo to death, I'm walking into this game just owning with a bow and long sword...The kicking adds so much to your strategy in fighting and headshotting enemy and watching fall from ledges is great.. Hahaha, even the close up headshot the guy does a sommersault in the air...

16x AF and 6xAA and everything maxxed at 1024x768... Just love it.

Finished it in less than 12 hours (two days of play), and tbh SP is kinda bugy Rolling Eyes AI is fine but glitches and memory leaks make it look bad(in some levels the quick load button took 1-2 minutes to load my game).

I want this game, but in a world with the scale and freedom of morrowind and gothic 3.
then this game would be of the hook.
Right now its just "run this way and kill, then get points and by skills"
And speeking of the skills... thay are not that good.
i whent for the mana and healt booster and heal... the rest of the spells are to week.
better to sink your points in the fighting part as you will find your doing that anyway.
As i sayd if thay had put the source engin to work and made big worlds and workt a bit more on the skill tree... this would be da game.
But now its just a trick to get the FPS crowed to try RPG.
And as you move around in oblivion or gothic you wounder y thay need loading screens in this game... it can clearly be done with out.
I wiched thay had gone with the oblivion engin on this game, that would have made it posible for them to do so mutch more.
But hay i playing it anywas, its a nice chang in pace from the slow lvling of moblivion and gothic.

well thats my 2c.

Oblivion's engine is pure Unreal Engine3.0 with almost no optimizations and that would have killed Dark Messiah Rolling Eyes
