Just 3 things for people who wonder what all the hype is about this game

- Spell casting system sounds cool. The trinity of classes is gone, with every class (apparantly) having access to at least 1 heal, and being able to tank though I would suspect some are better than others. Anyway is a person casts a healing ward on the ground and a ranger fires arrows through the ward zone, they become healing arrows. Just like casting a fire spell on a warrior who is using whirlwind will starts spitting out fireballs his with attack. Massive number of combinations to find out

- Entire game has an adaptive system to it. if you are max level and then go back into a beginning zone, it will scale you down so that they put up at least somewhat of a challenge. You will never be able to 1 shot mobs.

- Even though there are only 7 or 8 instances in the entire game, they seem to have a pick-your-own-adventure style thing to them with them having multiple pathways so that it takes you multiple runs to clear them. On top of that when you get high level you open "exploration mode" which lets you do just that, explore a hard mode version of the instance and it is so tough, that even the devs themselves have trouble at times clearing them.

Seem like good ideas but shall have to wait until the beta to see their execution.

Sounds pretty cool DM, but not sure about the whole "enemies scale with you" thing. I think most people hated that about Oblivion. I WANT to feel like I'm becoming more powerful over time, to the point where I one shot enemies I once had trouble killing...

I will give it a crack, looks interesting.
