Wow, how many DLCs are out already? Wasnt the game just released a couple of months ago? I would like to have this game, but will wait and hope for a further price drop, hopefully in the 20.00 range for the game bundled with the DLC.

I've heard quite a bit about this game (in the good way), and I have been looking for a rewarding single-player game that is not an Elder Scrolls game. I just have never enjoyed the actual experience in any of their games (couldn't get sucked into Fallout 3 either, no matter how hard I tried). I enjoy a good RPG-style experience, but action-style combat (as opposed to that virtual dice-roll style - another thing I've always hated about a great majority of RPG games) and clunky non-realtime swings and blows and whatnot (click click click click - wait I swung once? hmm retarded). I'm not opposed to the dice-roll approach to variable damages, buffs and defenses and whatnot (can you tell I'm also not a huge RPG player? :p), but I'd still appreciate at least a sense of actual combat thrown in their.

Also, a good story.
Does KoA offer this? The two expansion packs offer worthwhile additional gameplay/story?

The game's been tempting me for awhile. I enjoy a good third person action romp, but when I played the demo, the seemingly lackluster story combined with the awkward choosing of skills made me a little too hesitant to buy it.

I might pick it up now or just wait until it's 50% off.
