If you like a CRPG with an old school feel (think Ultima Underworld with great new graphics and sound- showing my age!), but fantastic graphics and sound. It has everything you want in a CRPG. A great character system with lots of skills, spells, and a total of 5 character classes (2 lvl 1, 2 lvl 2, and 1 lvl 3 class). The story is even interesting and much of the dialogue is well done and some of the set combats and boss fights are very well done. My only complaints about this game is the large amount of time it takes to walk from place to place before you get the moonstones (allows you teleport between areas), and the fact that the combat (especially the really tough combats) can have a very arcadish feel. This may not bother some of the younger players who like the console style arcade combat, but I still prefer old-style turn-based combat in CRPG and strategy games, however I realize that is a dying breed (although Civ4 is a nice exception). However, even with the arcadish combat, I found the game surprisingly enjoyable from start to finish. This game may not grab you in the first 5 minutes, but for many if not most of you this game will grow on you and really grab you as you continue to play the game. I got hooked about 2 hours into the game and couldn't stop playing it until I finished it.
For those of you who are thinking of buying the game, wait for the Collector's Edition as it will have the latest patch 1.4 plus extra content.

I played the game last November. And I think I'm going to play it again. The thing I find very attractive in this game is the many hours you need to complete a simple quest. We are talking about dungeons and in thi... Read Full Review
