This game rocks. Its a great remake of a classic. I am suprised by how awesome the artwork is, every area and enemy just pop out of the screen. The fantasy setting is isnt weird, its very classic, but manages to have a flair very much its own, this is not derivative. The battle system and hero progression system are very in depth, and i just cant put it down. There are dozens of hours of game play, I have been playing for over 3 days now and I still havent left the first continent of FIVE! The quests are all very well done and slowly reveal the detailed background of the setting. There are a couple of reasons I have given it a 9.5 and not a 10: first, once your army becomes powerful enough there needs to be an "autoresolve" button for when you completely outmatch a wandering mob; secondly there are a couple of typos in the quest text. Thats about it! Truly an in-depth game that any fan of either RPGs or tactical games should check out! Much better story, artwork, game balance, and game length than any strategy game or RPG I have played in a years, turn based or real time. Definitely check this one out!
