Good job, Arcen.
« on: April 21, 2012, 11:55:06 pm »
So, I bought this game the day the pre-order went on sale. I poked around a bit in the 0.500 versions for a day or two, but decided to pretty much sit back and wait for the release before really playing it.

Today was the big unveiling for a couple of my friends and I. We hopped in and just started playing and I have to say the game was a resounding success with everyone. We were all pretty stoked about the Diablo 3 open beta this weekend, but despite the fact that beta is only available for this weekend, we ended playing AVWW almost the whole time instead. Even while playing Diablo 3, AVWW is what we were talking about.

So kudos, this game really came together in a terrific way. It's a great game and an absolutely steal for $15. I can't wait to see how you guys add to the game like you have AI War!

Thank you for the kind words. We're all really excited about it as well. We have lots of additions planned for both right out of the gate and longer term. And, as always, I'm sure we'll be getting even more great ideas from here in the forums.

I've been saving a few for after 1.0, actually ;) I'll wait until things calm down though, so probably a week or so.

W.o.w.  That's high praise, indeed, goodgimp; I'd been worried about distraction of folks during the Diablo 3 beta weekend.  Thanks mightily for the kind words, and I'm so glad you're all having such a blast with it!

Ditto about Diablo III.  I've played it some this weekend, but I've spent MUCH more time with AVWW.  I just can't stop! Even after all these months.

I'm back to playing AVWW, but in honesty that's only because I had already completed the Diablo III beta with all the classes by Saturday morning, and didn't feel like grinding just to get to level 13 and see the skills I had missed out on.

The Diablo III beta wasn't really much of interest to me, if anything the current Path of Exile beta has taken up more of my attention then most things.
