Good game, but hold off until they patch it some more...

So far I've played several hours of MKA. Overall it's got a lot of potential and pretty nice graphics but it appears to have been poorly bug tested. I have crashed directly to the desktop twice after about an hour or so of play and have heard of others crashing before they can even get in. They have patched the game some and it is running better now than it was. My lag is now gone, which was caused by some game problem (I have at or above recommended and adjusting graphics had had no effect whatsoever). However there are still plenty of things to fix, i.e. my dwarf ally having a "can't find string(4)" appear in a dialog box over his head while he rambles off some line from a quest I never got during a mission in an entirely separate area. The dialog, while a little odd in some parts, is generally good and the skills are greatly varied. This adds a lot of replay ability when going through the game again as a different character. The camera is a bit clunky but it's easy to adjust to and not a big deal, in my opinion. The music and sounds are pretty good, although when your allies speak it can be difficult to hear them if they're lagging behind you. In short, I would recommend this game, especially if you are a fan of Mage Knights, but maybe give it atleast a few more weeks to get some patches out on more of the larger bugs.
