I see bits and pieces from all three games. But it most closely resembles the Diablo series.
I have been playing multiplayer with the wife occasionally. I have a couple of friends who also want to hook up (on dungeon siege)...so yes. I play online games. I have been online with Quake 3, Return to Castle Wolfenstein, Diablo, and a few others (not as much time spent online with those). Online gaming (not pay-per-month like Everquest) rules. Well...everquest may rule too..but I don't fancy having to pay each month.
Hmm...sounds interesting Rabs.
I like the Diablo series and have played it quite a but to this day.
My Dad gave me Baldur's Gate II and Icewind Dale, but I haven't really tried those out too much yet. I had installed BG2 and messed around with it some. It seems like a fun game, but I wasn't too impressed with the combat aspect of the game. It seemed a little bit hard to control. Though, I should also say that I didn't really give it much of a chance yet. Sometime I'll try it again, and get more into it.
I really like the Myth series also. In fact Myth III is on my "to buy" list right now. I haven't had occasion to re-install it here on the new cpu, but I will sometime soon I'm sure.
I really like the online games.
I play Counter-Strike, Diablo II, StarCraft, Age of Empires, Empire Earth, Links LS 98(golf), Myth II, and Homeworld. Some more than others, but if you'd like maybe we could settle on a game and hook up sometime? (If you've never tried Counter-Strike I highly recommend it! It's even a free download, so there's nothing to buy!
)
I'm also not ever, EVER going to pay a subscription to play any online game. I just can't imagine how that could be worth it. I'd have to be mighty impressed with a game before I'd even consider it!
