A sci fi RPG of epic proportions. One of the most immersive worlds in a game. The atmosphere would totally suck you in. The music was beautiful and fittingly epic. The different cities were very distinct in setting and their inhabitants made them feel like living breathing alien worlds. The story was simply put fantastic. It felt like watching a big Holywood sci fi blockbuster as much as playing a game. The whole voxel based rendering wouldn't nessecarily look better than the competitor polygon engines of the time but one thing it would definitely achieve was to give the game it's own distinct look and feel and make the world look that tiny bit more alien. Which was ideal for a sci fi game like that. Another two things that stood out were the weapons which were very cool and different and the mounts (the weird camel like creatures). Really wish Appeal could make a second one. It's one of those games that you can't help but wonder how it would play, feel and look like with today's technology. Probably amazing.
