Thought I would start by introducing myself!
Name is Raul, 29 years of age, from the cold and beautiful frozen north (Norway, as the title suggests!).
As a long time ARPG player, and some one who has pretty much grown up with the Diablo franchize, I have of course been looking forward to the release of D3 for the past 4 long years. Daily readings and posts at incgamers.com, where I am also a PAL, and lots of anticipation, have of course summed up to huge expectations from the game, only to be shattered a few days after release.
I will not get too much into that, as I am not into game bashing, but I will say that all the huge disappointment has brought be to think again of what is it that I enjoyed so much in all those 10+ years of playing D2, and how can I find such joy in a PC game again.
Then came the suggestions of TL2 and GD, and here I am, having ordered the TL2 game, and having just finished ordering the $50 version of GD!
To be honest, I do not yet know much about the game, besides having seen the infamous Kickstarter video of the lead producer. What I saw in that video, was something that hit me in a very deep spot of my nerdy-gamers-heart. A game made BY gamers FOR gamers. Probably what Blizzard North used to be back in the day.
So while I will be now completing Both TL1 and TQ:IT, I am saying hi, and hoping to be a part of what seems like a great community here on the forums!
