    Meh, hype isn't bad I'd say. Your sales were/are great, everyone wins.

    Casual games are ideal for the platforms, sure, but Aralon is as good as an RPG gets here.
    BTW: How is SQH a sci-fi RPG?: DDD

    It's all opinion-based. You're angry because he doesn't agree with your opinion? What an insightful character. ;)

    It's personal preference I suppose. Aralon isn't really the typical rpg in that it doesn't hold your hand the whole time.

    I had as much fun following it before release, and talking to people about it, and beta testing for it, as I did playing the game, which went beyond my expectations.

    I personally enjoy the open world feel, and all the quests. There's room for improvement for sure, but it's a great start. Maybe Aralon isn't for you, but it's hard to deny that it hasn't raised the bar for games to come, especially open world RPGs

    What made me wonder is why do I still play Aralon despite the major bugs in it? Normally if I have had bugs in one of my games I would stop but with Aralon, it's another story..

    It probably means its a good game..

    It's excellent, and if you can grab a buddy to play coop, so the better.

    A crapload of sales and even some new games just came out. I'm grabbing one more giftcard before the year ends, or rather it'll probably be under the christmas tree, but yeah..I think I'll have spent about 125-150 for December by the end of the month.

    Right now I'm looking to grab secret of mana, solipskier, drop7, eliss, altered beast, gravity guy, gunstar heroes, possibly ff1/ff2 even though I have them for the psp, possibly asphalt 6, robotngun, real soccer 2011..so yeah a bunch of 0.99 sales lol and what not. Oh and probably ultimate mortal kombat..and other games that look fun in the top 200-.-..

    I really wish I could do that because that's about the amount of games I actually get to playing..

    Why not just try not buying games?: D


    Alternative solution: whenever you feel like spending money on a game, gift it to me! : D
