[QUOTE="Super Pony, post: 5810872, member: 6669292"] I don't think the Skyrim effect will be too detrimental. If it had released in the same month or even with some new DLC it could be shakey, but Skyrim launched three months ago and most people looking to buy new releases will already be looking for "somethin' new" anyway. I replayed the demo again last weekend. All in all it seems like it'll be fun ([I]provided there is a bit more depth in the full release[/I]). The story of KoA isn't really anything staggering from the openingn cinematics ([I]bad guy doing bad things laughing like a bad guy and rubbing his hands together plus zombies[/I]). I'm going to have to test it out at my cousin's setup before I go and dive in though. He's getting it this morning and planning on junkin' out on it for a while. I'm still having a ripping good time with Dark Souls. Game play is super rewarding, replay value through the roof, and THAT game has a seriously under appreciated story world. So much so that I'm planning on running a Burning Wheel take on it for some "old neighborhood" friends this upcoming summer when we get together to be smelly old nerds. I'll be curious to see how people enjoy the full release of KoA. Even if it is a "single player" version of WoW it could be awesome. There was a lot to WoW, and I never got to see more than about 40% of it due to not being a 40hr per week player. [/QUOTE]
