Great but buggy
I have nothing but praises on the gameplay, theme and overall plot of this game. Everything that an RPG should have, this series had it by the truckload. So, why the obscurity? Because it's not JUST and RPG. It's a Computer RPG. The game was utterly ambitious and it shows with the epic battles, sprawling maps, interesting NPCs and inclusion of the under-utilized Psionic sub-class of classic AD&D 2nd Edition. That said, the ambitiousness of the game was probably its own downfall. I believe SSI was struggling to keep development time down, trying their utmost best to rush out this monster of a game on to the market. The 1st was a hit, even though it was marred with some gamebreaking bugs. The 2nd had respectable sales until reviews of the game came up that it had even more and worse bugs than the 1st. It was extremely disheartening to see such an original universe die out (Ha! See what I did there? Uh... Inside joke for those who knows about the Dark Sun campaign) because of mismanagement and poor control of this project. Personally, I am sick and tired of Forgotten Realms and would welcome any developers to try their hands on Dark Sun. They have a ready customer right here.
