I got mine emailed the very day after I received it. Youll probably get yours today or tomorrow.

Sell Gold weapons you find.
There's been no confirmation of any kind. I suppose it'll depend on sales figures. I would just get it on PS3 and enjoy the game now.

Damn, I wanted to switch out my hat for something cooler looking but didn't have the materials for the upgrade just yet, and as my luck has it, the hat I was wearing becomes Dragon Forged. Now I'm stuck with this silly looking shit forever lol

Sorry about that. Using "toon" is a force of habit from too many years playing WoW.
I changed my vocation from Mage to Sorcerer.
But seeing now I can no longer use a Staff, and require the Archstave, I am boned. The Archstave from Gran Soren is 18000g to buy, and I only have 6000g atm.
So now, I am running around with no weapon, and therefore cannot use any spells hahaha.

It's free to change your vocation back - just change back, earn the cash and then buy the weapon. 12,000 gold is chump change in this game.
haha, use whatever term you want. I doubt anyone is genuinely bothered by someone using "toon".
Just switch your vocation back. It's free to switch back to a previously unlocked class.
Edit: and beaten. By 1stStrike no less. How fitting.

D'you wanna trade pawns. Because of Royal Mail, I fear that I'm being left behind in the pawn game. Who's gonna want a level 1 pawn when the game's been out for a week?

Why would you apologize for using a perfectly acceptable word that most people now understand to mean "player created character"? It's right there with "mob" and "npc".

Where does it derive from, out of interest?
As I mentioned earlier, it was used in Roger Rabbit in 1988. After that at some point MMO players started using it as a way to identify their characters. I don't think there's any real documented history to it, so knowing the exact how/when/why is fairly difficult to discern at this point.

No idea... I remember thinking it was absolutely ridiculous when I first saw it used in EverQuest back in 1999. I was 14 at the time.
LOL, poor bunnies. Go play toss with a pig, you will feel much better.
Haha, it's hilarious. Toss with a bunny is just tragic. Well, it's still kind of funny when the pawn picks it up, and then just drops it out of disappointment.
Well, they're going to max out at some point...

Gives new meaning to "tossing the ole pigskin around". It's like a hilarious game of hot potato. But with pork.

Hehe, the technical flaws are really hard to ignore (for me) but this game is fun as hell. Man sometimes (well often^^) it looks like a last gen game but the atmosphere is really great. I'm at Level 15 now and have the feeling that I've done nothing in this huge world..lol
the pop-in is hilarious though

Fiddlesticks, won't be playing this until Saturday now
Yeah, nothing really originates from WoW. It's just assimilated shit from other MMO's.
Rusted weapons at max inflict various status effects. Poison and Torpor for the Rusted Bow and Daggers. Not sure if the other weapons inflict the same. Damage output is low, so I just keep them in my inventory, equip them and inflict the status effect, then switch back to my main weapon.

I picked some up from a golem in the

I loved traveling to the capital in post-game after the credits. Especially once I came over the mountain and saw about 10
Wyverns flying through the skies.
I booked it to the gate and right as I get to the bridge and I'm like, "Phew, I'm safe" I hear something slam behind me and turn around and I'm just like OHSHIT and run into the city lol.
There's actually more story after the "final boss" so I recommend doing that. Plus, that battle is epic. I wish I could go back and do it again without replaying everything.

Can anyone point me to a nice little breakdown of each of the classes, or maybe just give me a description here of what they all are and what each is like?
I didn't even do very many quests, so it could be a good idea to go ahead and finish out the main story. It'll leave me a lot of quests to do on a NG+, or a fresh start. Will probably do a fresh start if there is nothing unique on a NG+ (aside from the ability to purchase Port Crystals).
i made it to the encampment so far, checked the noticeboard, 1 new training quest, died desperately two times. heading to gran soren now. shitting my pants...

I think it's great regardless.

I remember how the beginning game on and I was like "This song is pretty nice" and then the guitars came and I just burst out laughing.
It doesn't fit with anything at all.
The guitars used in the battle music for bosses though is awesome as hell.

Yeah, I was a little leery of rock guitars in a fantasy RPG at first. Then I hear those crunchy metal guitars as I'm running through a battle field, felling goblins and evading ballista bolts and cyclopes, and it all comes together to make you feel incredibly badass. I approve, though I understand why others dislike it.

Actually, I find I'm liking how the song fits the game in a strange sense; it's reminiscent of earlier generations of fantasy anime that actually did have a western theme like Record of Lodoss War.
Those were pretty much western style orchestral music save their jpop opening and ending songs.

I loved the feeling of post game. I enjoyed Skyrim, but after I beat Alduin, the world didn't really care. - In DD, the world actually changes. For all of the story shortcomings that there are, I really appreciated this surprise.

So your pawn comes back from an adventure with a few paltry gifts, ~200 or so RC, and absolutely no rating or comments. What's happening here? Don't you have to rate borrowed pawns?

Maybe those are the pawns that die and dont get re-summoned.

Possibly. Thing is, this represents the vast majority of my pawn's usages. She's a rock-hard tank who really shouldn't be dying so often unless people are just throwing her off a bridge. It puzzles me.

lol. Also though, she returns with gifts, so she's still being properly dismissed. Makes no sense.

Maybe they give you random gifts to not make you feel bad? No clue.
Also I recommend everyone listen to the OST outside of the game, a lot of stuff going on in these songs that you just don't hear in game because you are too focused on killing shit.
At least for me anyway.
