FPS drops, input lag, crashes...

... Sound freezing Online key activation s**** Object detection issues ... Just... don't buy this game. I heard there are better ones but I can't possibly imagine how a person could say that when the game, basically, don't work at all. Crossing fingers to get a refund. This is the first time I buy something on GoG and have a feeling of being swindled.

Bummer

This edition is so epic that you have to find solution to run it by yourself, problem with lags, audio in game... i thought GOG is preparing games for modern setups but looks like not anymore.

Good game but horseback riding ruins it

This game was really fun until I got stuck for the third time in the first 20 levels while riding my horse. The other two times I could just spawn another horse and continue on (after the tedious process of transferring my inventory to the new horse), but this time I found myself stuck on a bench placed in the center of the riding path in a very traveled part of the world, unable to move or dismount. There may be a way to despawn the horse using the console and continue on with the game but I had no desire to continually de and respawn horses and transfer inventory for the remainder of the game. Some may say don't use horses but I needed the extra inventory space and it was fun (although frustrating to control at times) to ride them and fight from them. Not to mention you moved faster on a horse, a significant factor in a large game world. For such a promising game to be derailed by inadequately debugging such a central feature is disappointing. They could have removed the horse entirely if they couldn't get it right and created more teleportation locations and lighter loot, for instance. Or remove features like benches placed in the f&#!($* middle of the riding path that one becomes easily stuck upon! Too bad, I was having fun otherwise.

great game, broken Linux port

the game is old but good (if you enjoyed Morrowind, Oblivion, Gothic and similar old titles). you can try to role play any class but eventually you will finish game as melee character because magic and archery is not very viable end game. game has robust potion making system, you can improve your stats by brewing nice perma boosts. Equipment is easy to find, nice way to upgrade it. As a result if you invested in alchemy and have decent upgraded melee weapon(s) you can proceed naked because you'll be able to tank with all these perma boosts. There are still hard enemies end game, but you can run away from them. performance isn't great, some choppiness during fights, open world has to be read from hdd and it adds 1-2 seconds freezes when you run from area to area. had no crashes or game breaking issues. Linux port is broken and unusable. I had to play Windows version in wine (which strangely enough had better performance than on Windows 7 on same hardware, visually less choppy). developer published working beta version for Linux on steam, but it's not available in gog downloads yet. when questioned about availability for gog developer said to ask TopWare or on gog forums. clearly they won't upload that beta to gog so if you're Linux user and expect this game to be playable - don't keep your hopes high or be prepared to use wine. gog should remove Linux tag from this game because it's a lie.

This game is a mess but i like it

So let's start with the good ones are we? Graphics: When you begin playing a new game the first thing you notice is the graphics, for it's age it's beautiful except the lighting or montion blur which hurt your eyes. Story: You can complete the main story in less than 7 hours maybe even less if you activate cheats. (And i did) story is fine but you have to complete a series of unrelated quests to reach endgame. I like how they at least made a good narrative story. Alchemy: The best part of the game is alchemy you can combine almost every item to make a potion or a gem to increase the effect of the item i spent hours experimenting with new potions. Unfortunately now we get to the worst parts Combat: Mediocre especially melee funny as h*** animations spam the attack button and you win simple as that remember to dogde some enemy attacks can't be blocked, you can also use your spells alongside melee. Skills: Kinda pointless. You can choose between mage, archer and melee skills each with different category. Upgrading skills is kinda pointless because the enemy balance is not good. There is also a skill for swimming which leads to death if you try to swim and it's hilarious. Moreover there is another pointless skill Horse Riding with the worst controls i have even seen. Map and Quests: To be fair the map is fine at first glance it gives you the impression everywhere is the same but it's not there is a variety of places. Now the quests are the worst i have ever seen fetch quests mostly and most of the time you don't know what to do because most of the quests can be completed if another quest is completed. Voice Acting and Dialog: The most hilarious part of the game.So bad voice acting is good also the translation into English is not good Magic: Maybe the best in the game with a variety of spells but i didn't use it much only when i have to. Conclusion: A decent RPG game with many flaws not the best not the worst
