Darkstone

First time i tried this game i was discouraged by it's graphic. It does not age well (as most of 3d games) but after some time i decided to give it second chance. I played for more than few minutes, i made a 2 members party and start an exploration. The companion system turned out to be the best one i've ever seen, in fact both characters are playable (sad that they do not use spells on their own), and it is like something between old infinity games (baldurslike) and diablo clone. Game took the best things from D1 and added some things that were later copied by every following game of genre. The game turned out to be the one that graphic is something you can get used to, and everything else just makes this using to easier. It has random quests, random dungeons, a lot of stuff and great companion system. It is game Worth trying and Worth buying.

I own an original US cd version which I play in wine on Linux along with a no cd patch. I'm waiting for this to go on sale and I'll then buy the GOG version.

I'm surprised no one has reported this... And more surprised by the high ratings for a game that opens in in full screen at 640x480 resolution without having the option to increase it. Fan patches do not solve the problem and still cause slowdowns. I wish I could play this game at a decent resolution, but it won't be possible, so be warned!

Hey do you remember that ps1 game called darkstone remember how it was just alright but there was alot that felt like it was missing well thats cuz it was crippled beyond reconizing but guess what theres a wonderful pc version of the game that even plays better than the other everything about this game is better than the ps1 version and i do mean everything

The first time I played this game was back in 1999, and I was hooked. Vibrant environments, a lively hub, the feeling of an epic quest, it was all there. However, playing it again and looking back, it doesn't hold up to the godlike standards I once thought of it. However, it is still a fun game that I would recommend to fans of cRPGs or Diablo.
