  1. What in the ripe green duck is the problem with the way this guy is playing??? Its gameplay footage.. which i wanted to see… which helped me determine if i wanted to purchase the game… which i did. TF is with all these elite kiddies and their opinions?

  2. Don't see why they haven't looked into the likes of capcoms Mhw and used animation windows to lock in place instead of cast time, makes it more enjoyable and more thought involved.

  3. I do like the aesthetics of the environment. I like the music and sound effects as well. it's got the heavy MMO vibe to it. But the combat seems excessively slow. There's nothing engaging about the combat of a mage if most of the time you're just rooted in a spot for a spell that does okay damage. Need to look into the cast time, mobility when casting and after cast. Tooooo clunky for today's standard. I'm not sure the ground target healing is demonstrated wrong here but hopefully you don't have to pan your camera to the group to cast that..

  4. Amazon keep tweaking the combat, you have a ways to go. When these companies build their combat they need to look to the messiah of active action combat; Guild Wars 2. Thats your competition Amazon. Whats so interesting, is that Jon Peters (the guy who built the action combat for GW2) works for Amazon. It baffles me.

  5. You know what it is for me though, the sound. The sound design is awful, sounds cartoony. And the voice acting when a spell is cast…The AI seems lack luster as well and the casting times as mentioned by everyone else are horrible. Amazon studios has a long way to go. I hope this is an early build cause I was looking forward to a new IP.

  6. lol… 9 minutes of magic combat? no, not really. it was 9 minutes of someone who didn't know how to play the game or use their spells/abilities correctly.. you should probably remove this video.. it's bad.

  7. Looking at similar realize

    Money – are no substitute for talent

    Ambition does not replace the desire to do something interesting

    Greed, will not overshadow the desire for the best

    Amazon is unable to create anything

  8. I'm just wondering, the developers don't see a problem in what the character wears: an ax, a sword and a shield, a large hammer, a spear, a musket and several types of staffs … at the same time?!

  9. Look everyone, it's 2008 and mage "action" combat lets us root ourselves for intense 4 second channels! What fossil did you dig up to give us this gem of a combat design?
