Wizardry 8

I've played this through a few times. I didn't have message boards the first time and created a monster party. Took 1 round of melee to kill the final boss. At first, this bothered me. The final battle isn't where this game shines. The politics between factions, the character creation and development, and combat make this game shine.

Thank You!

Thank you to all the people who've played this game before. You have been a big help to me. I like crpg's but have never played any of the Wizardry games before. This one is complex and a little hard for me to play (I'm on easy mode) but you are all right. The battles can be a grind and the respawning is annoying, yet the game is still fun. I have a feeling I will play this one many times like I've played many of my other turn based games. I didn't realize that I could play with only one person and that more players would only make the game much more slow and hard until I read all the reviews. Would it be to my advantage to restart with one player and add more as I go along or should I stick with my six players? Will I meet more people that I can add to my party later on? I am near the beginning in the dungeons now. Most of my players are level four. I would like to know if I should I retrace my steps to try to do the entire dungeon or keep moving on? There are so many ways to turn. Thank goodness the automap is excellent. This is definitely one of the most intricate rpg's I've ever played. I just finished Oblivion. (Skyrim is beyond my poor upgraded to the limit Pentium IV). This game is good for me because I like the turn based games. It's too bad they don't make them anymore. If you know of any I might like, please let me know.

A crack-and-peanut butter sandwich

This game came to my attention through Ssethtzeentach's review, and it wasn't until I saw a friar slapping the shit out of a group of drones that it clicked with me and I must play more.

Conclusion to Epic Story

First, tips on maximizing your enjoyment. Get the Cosmic Forge Editor and enable your NPC's to enter all areas of Wiz 8. I hated the fact that some NPC's would just leave your party when entering an area they didn't like and dropping all their gear. Secondly, I haven't tried it but I will be getting the combat speed mod as others on GOG reviews indicated. Battles are LONG, even on easy. Don't expect to play this game unless you have at least an hour of time per session. Thirdly, take your time and absorb the atmosphere, story, and intricate combat/magic system/character skill system. Very rewarding and keeps the carrot dangling in front of you as you try to work to get your first fireball spell or Powerstrike skill. Lizardman...Yaahhhh. Wiz 8 is an amazing game considering the bread and butter of the wiz series was grid based gaming and dungeon crawling exploration. I'm pretty sure Sir-Tech knew they were going under and still succeeded in creating an innovative game that, exploration wise, is completely different than its earlier games. I finished wiz 1,2,5,6,7,8 and made it half through wiz 3. If you're new to the series, I'd say just stick with wiz 6,7,8 and for more challenge, do them in that order and port your characters. Only drawback is some new classes in wiz 8 and you'd have to switch classes sometime in 8. These games are known to be tough. but at least the 'ASH' ailment no longer exists. You will feel like a champion when you progress but also feel like it is expected of you. Like getting to the playoffs, but knowing your goal is getting the trophy. The automap feature allows notes which is awesome, like Ultima Underworld style, and auto journals keep quest notes organized and up to date. I have the original box/cd version but my brother lost the first disc! Just bought the GOG version. Gonna rock it again!
