An old friend of mine loves it.

Cool, at least someone tried it out. I kinda of thought the demo would be more anticipated since it's ex-Blizzard people making the game..

Well, it's more like crap singleplayer and choice between a free subscription mode - in which case you're effectively very, very gimped..... or a paid subscription which nets you a ton of bonuses - even extra game content

My initial impression from a few hours in the demo is "meh". Mildly entertaining, but not going to rush out and buy it. I guess i'll wait and see...

As for the subscription thing, it's not that bad in the context of it more or less being an MMO in multiplayer. I can see it quickly becoming required as the developers start making powerful "gifts" to subscribers, despite what they say about item power.

does anyone know of the lan-playability?

As in can panda and I play it together?

Has it got LAN support?

Not as such no. For security reasons we can't allow people to run their own servers for the game - otherwise all sorts of exploits could come into the main online game. There will be a free way to play with just your friends but it will require joining an Internet server.
