I noticed I could go into 1st person on the Summoner I made but couldn't on the blademaster, not sure if thats a bug or what but seems 1st person is available on at least one class.

Downloaded it yesterday, only stopped playing a couple of hours ago, because I needed food. I like the demo, and I didn't get bored after 5 minutes of playing as is the usual case. I know what I'm playing until Starcraft 2 comes out, maybe stop to play Crysis, but it looks pretty boring.
1st person only works with long range weapons - melee weapons only do 3rd person.
Yeah it's a lot smoother than the US beta, as you would expect.
Thats a cracking level and have just finished it, at first I just ran out of the rift and legged it back to Benn... Didn't realise I had to takeout then 6 sword guys.... was quite easy being an engie, they tend to go after the drones first
The rocket launcher (a legendary one 
) Takes them out nice and quick...Worst thing was those green zombie things with purple tentacles first time I seen one I was killed.
I'm impressed so far. Demo is cack compared to it.

Well i thought it was a bit lame.
Unless a different game is released when it comes out then this is going to do poorly.
Poor to average graphics.
Very bad to dreadful sounds, especially the cockney stereotype voices and dreadful scripts.
Dull and boring atmosphere, not helped by the lack of music and graphic detail.
Repetitive play.
Clunky and unhelpful menu and info system/ pages.
Boring side quests.
No learning curve, not that you'd need one the game is so linear and one dimensional.
Then the demo just ends you in a room you cannot progress any further forward, and you realise, you don't really care!

I think the main point that needs to get across about this game is don't judge it on the demo it's just not a good representation of the final game, my friend played the demo and cancelled his pre-order I leant him my beta account and now he's pre-ordered it again

Then it should never have been released, the demo that is.
I didn't know much about the game, in fact very little apart form a lot of people going 'OMG i cant wait, AM GONNA EXXXXPLODE etc...' on a few forums so had no expectations, apart from people can't wait for it, so its worth a look.
I get where this type of game will excel is online, but with the competition already out there, this will struggle to make an impact, and those they could have bought in from the demo, will simply avoid it, like me, and many others.
The game doesn't grab you, doesn't tell a story, doesn't wow you in any way. It leaves you feeling flat, and wishing it could have of done this, done that, or been something else.
A sequel could well become a massive games if they learn from their mistakes, a very highly patched version of this could bring it up to a playable level, but there is so much work to do, i think they missed the point. I think they made it for themselves.
I was hoping for a HL2 vs NWNs experience, and i think if it was, it would have been one hell of a game, unfortunately i might as well go get my old HL1 & NWN1 games out and play them, both are far superior in gameplay, there's nothing here but a missed opportunity to create a dark magical world and great game.
Well i agree with people saying the demo did HGL no favours, and is what i was trying to say in my posts.
I dare say i will buy the game, not got a beta invite, nto even sure i even signed up, had a look at the web page, didnt see anything for beta sign up, unless work firewalls blocked that bit..
Now 2nd i think its out, only 2 weeks to wait, then will give it a go.. any OcUK clan forming?

Tabula Rasa or Huxley, I'm guessing you're thinking of Tabula Rasa.
