doyou have to be a member of gamespot(paid emember) to get the open beta MP of dark messiah?I tried a free account but it says I need to be at least 17 which I am so im wondering if no matter what it will refuse me until I pay. It didn't say that but... im just wondering. Anyone else who is old enough to DL it having problems getting a CD key from gamespot? Sorry about the bad typing whenever I hit backspace it erases the entire paragrapjh....

It's basically a full 3d Diablo. Singleplayer game with limited online capability. I liked the singleplayer demo. Not really interested in the online part, though.
It is like Diablo in the way the singleplayer/multiplayer compare to each other, but other than that it doesn't resemble Diablo at all. Also, you can't use your singleplayer character in multiplayer mode.
. It's an action RPG, with visual similarities to Oblivion, but with a very detailed and realistic combat system. It's very gory, i.e. decapitation, impalement, etc. The game is divided up into missions taking place on different maps. You can gain experience by completing various goals throughout each mission. Every time you level up, you get a few skill points to specialize yourself in either melee combat, archery, stealth attacks, or magic.
The multiplayer is a lot different than the singleplayer. It's more like a traditional FPS, with capture points, respawning, and a kill/death ratio. You choose from several different jobs (Warrior, Assassin, Archer, Priest, Mage) and basically beat the crap out of each other until one team either loses all its spawn points or all its resapwn tickets.
Everything BlueCoyote said is a fair description, except the MMORPG part. That, it is not;)
Took a couple days with free account there to get the key to work. Now it seems not enough CPU or Video to run it
