Eat this, new-school!

Wizardry 8 is the last entry in the great and epic series. And unlike *some other series* Wizardry managed to leave the scene with pride and dignity. This game even on easy can beat you up in the most evil and unexpected way. This game hates you as much as a game can hate someone - and still manages not to step into territory of inadequate difficulti-in-the-name-of-difficulty projects. It IS both hard and complex, and it is hard *because* it is complex. Lots of races, stats and abilities combine form a nearly-infinite amount of possibilities to develop the party. Lots of factions to join or oppose, each having a tooth on another. A unique looking sword-sorcery-and-OMFGisitarocketlauncher?!!! setting with wizards, starships and wizards on starships, deep mythology and engaging gameplay do make this game EPIC.

Best dungeon crawler ever made

This game is rife with so much detail and expertise. Everything about this game is amazing, from the combat system to the voice acting!! Even the cutscenes are terrific. I read somewhere in another review how people are comparing this with Might And Magic (And even preferring that???). But really, it does not compare. This game is just so much better than anything else out there. Please don't play this if you don't want to be spoiled forever, unable to play anything else due to this game's incredible standards!! You've been warned!!!

Love it.

I personally can't say enough good stuff about this game. I played it years and years ago when younger and a lot of it was interesting, but I got distracted by the tidal wave of the MMO success of EQ back then. I replayed it some years back and couldn't believe I had put it down to start with. An interesting variety of races and classes, lots of magic items, tons of skills and options for advancement and so forth. The character's speech was well done and fit the setting, the story was, although lightly eclectic, altogether good and what should be expected of a Wizardry game. The only downside is that some fights can be very difficult, especially earlier on in the game, but a lot of status ailments, such as paralyze and whatnot, work surprisingly well, even on bosses. The game has a very before-its-time style of approaching combat, with front/side/back relationships for enemies and which party members can hit/be hit (reach weapons, like staves and polearms, can hit from middle and back rows, for example.) It's altogether a very good game that I couldn't recommend enough. It has its flaws here or there, but in my opinion the greatest downside is that there's no Wizardry 9. :(

Hey hey people Sseth brought me here

Lets be real here, you're locked at home and there are no new games coming out. You're gonna play this, look at the graphics and be doubtful about it. Then look at the clock and realize its been 3 hours since you told yourself that "eh the graphics tho."

Engaging, very fun game

I still have a hard copy of this game and I cannot tell you how many times I've played it. It is fun from the moment you begin selecting your party, as the depth of character revealed by the selection process means you can tailor the game for a very humorous ride. This is a game where a well balanced party is needed. The characters you meet along the way, the structure of the quests are well thought out/constructed and fun. Yes, some of the battles can be long and hard, but the trick is not to go to an area that steps the game up a gear until you are ready. Then the battles remain challenging and, when you need to revisit areas, the re-spawning of critters isn't too time consuming. If you are in a battle that is too hard, you can choose to run away, plus, eventually there are points you can teleport to and from. So there is perhaps more choice in this department than some others have indicated. The spell casting in this is just super - it is a very visual affair and the system and range of spells is effective. It's also worth commenting on the weapons and armour that can be created. Gathering the components can be quite a challenge, but the items are well worth the effort. Then there are the dungeons that hark back to earlier Wizardry games and require grid paper to chart your progress around. Then there are the Easter Eggs..... This was a stunning end to the Wizardry series and Ray Bradbury's. Stop reading and just buy it! :D
