Just got IT? Post your thoughts here! [possible spoilers]

As the title suggests.

My copy should be arriving any time today *jumps up and down*

[Dedo]

Well, my copy is either late today or after the weekend.

Doh.

So far it seems like they've improved the game a lot. There are a couple of things I'm not sure about, though.

The biggest one is unique monsters. When you kill them, you now receive a small message in the bottom right corner of your screen telling you something to the effect of: "Unique Monster Killed, #Experience Granted"

What I'm not sure about is whether that's telling me how much the monster gave me, or telling me that I've received -extra- experience on -top- of what the monster originally gave me. It doesn't make much of a difference, but it'd be nice to know.

Something I love is that they gave your experience bar a small temporary "Yellow" bar to tell you how much experience you gain from a particular encounter, which then fills up with the standard green a few moments after you stop fighting. Very useful.

Have yet to get any of the artifact reagents or recipes, so I can't really comment on those, I do like the caravan pretty well, but I'll probably still end up using a vault if there's one made for IT. The Caravan simply doesn't hold as much as a vault will...and I had several vaults filled on Titan Quest. *shrugs*

Also, maybe it's just me...but it seems like the game has been made much more difficult. I'm only level 9 or 11 or so, but I've died about 5 times already. It's standard for me to only die about 1 time in Normal, and maybe 2 throughout Epic. Maybe I'm just doing badly this time around, though, who knows.

Odd, I thought the game dropped around the 5th or 6th?

People are either getting their preorder copies early or are pirating the software...

Preorder is shipped out on the 2nd for UK. I either will get mine today or after the weekend.

March 6-8 are retail releases dates.

Most likely anyone who has been playing 12 hours ago has either got their copy from a breached seller or has a pirate version.

Breached here...the Best Buy in my town was selling them last night. Not sure how long they've been selling it, though. *shrugs*

Man, I'm going to BB tomorrow and see if they're selling it.

Tell us some more info about your IT experience then. Maybe some screens of some new items.
