I haven't started Part 2 yet. That's how much I care.

As for everyone else, enjoy it!

True that. We'll see how boring the last part can be.

^Perhaps you two should try it. Part 2 is funnier, more varied and far more rewarding than part 1, and it only takes half the time (at most) to complete it.

It's part 2 that makes me excited for the upcoming conclusion.

Agreed, part 1 was ... well it was horrid. Part 2 was better and hopefully the trend continues. I'm really excited about part 3, even if nobody else is!

Time to get those final weapons!

Edit: Reckoning sounds like it could take some serious playtime, something like 200 hours for a speed run for the people who knew exactly where to go. Since I'm a guy who like to pick up everything, its going to be a looooonggg game for me, heh.

I'm not too worried about the weapons. No offense to ANet, I'm sure their artists work rather hard on the weapons but they don't really appeal to me.

Besides, I'm more in it for the lore and story more than anything else. I'm curious to see how it's going to end.

Reviews weren't good because of the outdated quest system and the lack of quest variety. That really doesn't matter because the combat is like crack, one hit and your addicted, the graphics are pretty damn good to. I am actually glad they didn't go the DE or radiant type like GW2 and Skyrim. It actually helps the game have it own identity in a world dominated by dynamic quests that come to you.

What I love about it is its a blend of Skyrim, WoW and God of War, yet it stands on its own. BTW <3 the finishing fate moves in it.

Back on track I will prob do part 3 on a couple of characters, get my imperial weapons then go back to KoA: Reckoning. Unless of course they actually made it challenging.

I could have sworn the game always described as a southern continent. *checks wiki* Wiki says it's to the southwest. So where did "eastern" come from?

I don't know where that idea comes from, but there are already maps like this one depicting Cantha south east.

That's a fan-created map, not an official one.

Apparently, Cantha is an island.

Of course it is, i'm just pointing out that the idea of Cantha being an eastern continent is not new at all, wherever it comes from.

Finished part two yesterday where I failed before and hadn't tried in a while, then I remembered cons
Glad I did now, the second part was fun and more interesting than the first.
Can't wait to get home tonight and start the final chapter!
New weapon, new hero gogogo!
(did Thackery ever get his HoM statue?)

Awesome!

I'm still stuck on part 1 hard mode, LOL.. (tracking corruption, why you make life miserable?). Hopefully this'll be a nice break. I'm really excited to see how this leads into what we know about GW2
