Gothic

A skilled-ful game

Worth the money. There is about six to seven different types of trades to learn and about the same number of skills to learn. It is a little hard to learn at first, but the game overall is fun to play and always room for a replay to try new things.
The game is a little long winded with all the walking, but getting the spells and runes as you go, make it fun. Once player's get the hang of it, time flies...
The game really sets a bar in role playing. The idea that players are a hero and have no name, EVER. Players are just him and that guy and anything player does, affects the relationships with an entire town.
