| Why can't people take each game for what it is. I don't remember GPG saying that DS was going to be a D2 killer. The media, to me, are the ones who crowned DS the killer app to replace D2.
Hell, I have not heard/read anything about how DS has the look and feel of Throne of Darkness. Multiple characters to control, with one being the leader and the others following along behind.
I don't know how anyone can compare DS to the BG series. They are two completely different styles of games. BG was a deeply convoluted plot with alot of quests to do. DS is linear. One quest leads to another quest. Very little RPG involved.
I do agree that DS is more action than rpg, but that was what it was billed as from day one. A game that anyone could pick up and play without a steep learning curve in order to get started.
Bottom line, it is not really fair to compare one game to the other, unless it is a complete ripoff of another one.
