Very few words can possibly begin to describe this masterpiece of gaming art. It was revolutionary in its simplicity and masterful in its story telling. Far and away one of the greatest RPGs to date and arguably THE best. Some of the most memorable characters ever conceived came from this title and their interactions amongst themselves have given me memories that will last a life time. Needless to say, I think very highly of the story line. The combat varies greatly in degrees of difficulty. At times you'll slay everything that dares approach and at other times you have to pause the game every 4 seconds in order to prepare more spells or move your characters out of harms way. This edge of your seat combat is exactly what makes this game stand out among its peers. If you've never played and beaten this game, you cannot stand and call yourself a gamer in my eyes. Go. Play. Live it up.
