Heroes of Ruin has an impressive amount of customization
Heroes of Ruin is the exact kind of game I've been craving for my 3DS lately. I've been wanting a fantasy co-op action-RPG that's all about looting for weapons and armor to make your character as badass as possible. And as the trailer shows off, there's a ton of customization. I also really like that there's choice between using blades or guns. That's always a nice touch. I'm a bit curious to find out how the looting will work with your online co-op partner though. Like, if the loot will be split or it will all be first-come first-serve for example. I'm sure we'll find out soon enough. I'm a sucker for these types of games though. Especially when all the environments are all colorful and one enemy type looks like a character out of the show Street Sharks. Hopefully we'll get a more concrete release date for Heroes of Ruin other than "sometime this year." Did you know?

I've been following this closely.. I can't wait to play it on my 3DS, might make me put down my Vita for a while! I want this so hard and I keep hearing that it's coming out on March 31st, but I'm very skeptical about that... Brett, on the Nintendo eShop, there is a video explaining bits of the game. They talk about how the difficulty changes seamlessly as players drop in and out. That also affects the loot. I'm almost positive it's first come, first serve. I've got high hopes for this I hope it doesn't quickly get repetitive somehow, this has so much potential! I'm excited! This game just looks so bland. I wanna be interested but the more I see, the less I care. Hopefully I'm wrong. I have a feeling it's trying to make itself way more "SUPER COOL DUDEZ!" than it actually is.
