Dark Messiah of Might and Magic Preview

The guys at IGN PC have put together their own two-page preview of Arkane Studios' Dark Messiah of Might and Magic, after getting some hands-on time with the game's multiplayer component.
One of the other interesting aspects of the campaign through multiple maps is that experience will be cumulative. Building characters up to gain access to all available skills is very important. After a few games, each side will have several players that have been around from the beginning with characters maxed out and ready to rumble. At any time, players can choose to give another class a shot, but they'll have to start over in that class from the bottom and gain separate experience. Thankfully, should players switch back to their original class that they'd already been using, all of that class's previous gained experience and skills will remain. However, once a campaign is completed and either the humans or undead has destroyed the enemy stronghold, experience will be reset back to zero.
