Every time I hype myself towards the hypothetical release, and then they announce a delay and I forget about it for another 3 months. Ugh, I'm in the beta too, but it just isn't enough to quench my loot thirst, amalur and WoW are my only lifelines right now.

I actually think it has just the right amount of customisation, you can choose from some pretty cool tattoos, the only thing I'd like is the ability to make the piercings silver instead of a crazy bronze orange.

The argument that you'll be wearing a helmet is invalid since you take it off for dialogue and cutscenes and also there's an option to hide it. The game has a pretty decent amount of stuff though so I don't get it, this isn't the sims.

At least Blizzard offers you a free week of game time with their begging emails!

The 4.3 one got me back into it!

This game is going to be UBER DOPE!

Fez needs to hurry up and be released, the documentary about it's creation is beating it at this point.

Going the extra step seems to be what this game is all about. Ken Levine is so dreamy.

It seems like sloppy game design, IMO. Why not just make the entire game more cinematic and have the player in total control the whole time (e.g. Half-Life 2). QTEs make me enjoy cutscenes less because I'm constantly worried I'll have to mash a button randomly instead of appreciating what's being presented.

That's a really flawed argument because there are certain things that just can't be done with pure gameplay, at what point in Half Life 2 do you do anything nearing the intricacy of God of War's ridiculously violent boss finishers? Though I do agree with delivering plot driven elements of the game such as dialogue scenes in such manner as the Half Life games.

However, when the pacing of the game calls for a scene that is larger than the boundaries of it's engine, QTEs are a nice way of bridging that gap between watching your character do something and feeling like you are doing it yourself.

Poorly designed QTEs will always be terrible, because they are only succesful when they follow the same logic that flows through the rest of the game's mechanics.

Money sucks dick
