Quit treating console players like kids please...

No, I am not a PC gamer. Just because I play games on consoles doesn't mean I can't figure out a more complicated skill system. If it gets too complicated then make an 'auto skill up' option for the people who don't want to bother with it. Quit dumbing down games to make them more accessible to the people who probably won't even be playing them.



I'm bitching because I saw this Too Human video about the skill system and got pretty pissed. I was hoping to be excited as one of the best parts of one of my favorite games ever, Diablo 2, was the diverse skill tree system. There were three different trees for each class, and each tree had a variety branches needed to unlock skills further down the tree. This allowed for countless class setups with ample amount of variety. One could be in an 8 person group of the same class in that game and everyone might play completely different.

In Too Human I see 1 tree for each class and 3 simple paths down the skill tree. Now this might sound like some really geeky complaining, but this game won't work for me if every class plays similar despite the skill “customization.”

I've just become slightly less excited about this game.
