Probably going to snag it myself. I've heard pretty great things about the game for the MOST part.

Friend of mine with pretty similar video game tastes said it was pretty fantastic. Better than the first, supposedly. Graphically, pretty awesome too.

Both of the games are epic.

Both are definitely in my all-time top five.

There was that, most other things I've seen have been positive.

never got around to it as I really couldn't get into the first, but I'm sure a Steam sale will change my mind.

Man this game feels like once it gets to the open world part that how you manage yr time matters, or is this all in my head?

Period is right next to the space bar on android. I type really fast. And don't read what I write while I write it.

Mass Effect 3, unless you've never played 2, then get that first.

Got it.. It's pretty amazing graphics wise.. Still early on so I'm still trying to firgure out the inventory screen which fails miserably compared to a game like Skyrim.. Also, I was at level 3 before I realized it was was able to get my "perks".. The side quest come and go as part of the regular story..

It's pretty good but I gotta get deeper into it before I can give you a real review..

The side quests become more separate after the first act.. A few complaints about it:

-when playing dice poker (or any minin game), when you lose, you can't just replay the other person, it exit all together so you have to re-initiate a conversation, re-challenge the person, and start the game all over

-you can't jump over small mounds etc like you can in Oblivion/Fallout 3/Skyrim.. Like you actually have to find a path to walk, which can be frustrating..

-there is no cursor for the map and you can't set waypoints so if there are multiple options for a quest, you have to search each one before making a decision cause different paths lead to different outcomes..

Overall it is pretty sweet.. I'm prolly half way through at this point.. Def worth getting for any fan of action rpg's..

Also, the opening video is the pimpest cinematic video in any video game I've ever played..
