OK. Just have to relate a fun and new ARPG experience I had with the demo last night. Rode into a Grom encampment on my new favorite toy, the TW horse. After chopping down the two melee punks, the ranged punk began a game of run-and-shoot with me. I had to aim and time my runs past him to get single whacks in as he tried to get away. A brand new and very satisfying gaming experience (no, I never played M&B long enough to get a horse). After about a minute or two of this, weaving inbetween trees, wheeling my steed bout and having just a grand old time, the little bastard heads for a big rock to get away from me and force me off my mount. Now this could have been random, but it sure looked like AI. We'd been chasing around the camp and he'd passed the same big rock at least a few times before he finally headed for the high ground and then just stood there plunking away at me. Needless to say, I had to dismount and chase him down on foot. If this is indicitive of the level of AI in this game, I would almost buy it based strictly on that.
