God, you guys are whiny! This is a great game, and only a idiot would give it anything below a 7!

Now i am not one bo say this. I also agree that this seems more like a diffrent game entirely from the first ones. But this does not mean that the game is to be mocked because it does not have the same gameplay as the ones before it. The gameplay is fun, but can be challenging at times. Some bosses are so tough that you must go back and train for a couple of hours before you even have a chance! But that is what makes this game so immersive! If you play a game, do you want it to be quick and eaqsy to play, or difficult, with many times that you must go bacvk and train. Plus, this game has plenty of small side-quests, and has a great battle system. So, yeah the voice acting is terrible, but the storyline alone makes up for that! Judging by all the options that ytou can do to strengtrhen your character, you can make a mage that is immune to mele, or an archer that has the best overall defence! So go aead. Try and tell me that this game sucks.
