A model of gameplay

Spell force, it's a unique gameplay, a mix of RTS and RPG. Okay, is that all ? Yes and no... Many games claim to be a new model, a mix of genres, and mostly fail. Not Spellforce. The universe is rich, possibilities are huge, and the progression is very good. You discover new opportunities all along the game - with the new races you can control), your main character can be developed in many different ways. You really have new challenges all along the game, there is no feeling of repetition (the level design and monster design are really good too). Yes, the end of game is a little bit disapointing, but you will really have good time with this game - especially for this price. I was very disapointed by the add-ons because of the lack of "progression" as there is in the main game - when a part of the game is to discover what you can do. Theses add-ons assume you already know the game pretty well and just offer you new maps, but the gamer do not have the real feeling of playing something new. Most maps are good, but as a whole it lacks the immertion of the main game. But you wll buy it for the original game, won't you ? :)

As good as it gets

Now this is a real classic in my opinion. I fondly remember playing this during my last 2 years at the university. It was great to build up an entire base and try turtling the whole line of enemies. Usually after a good hour my defenses where up and running. Wave after wave of enemies came running towards my base and none entered. So i left it running sometimes while studying to gain the experience. So for me it's quite nostalgic to play it again after allt his time. The story is good , the patches did the trick providing more bindstones , less bugs , faster performance , ... . Most people say its a unique mix between RTS and RPG. Sure , but not the only one. Warcraft 3 and LOTR for exemple. But this one stands tall above all the others i've played so far. Great game.

Large amount of content

A great game. For me it feels like a mix between Warcraft 3 and Neverwinter Nights. The platinum edition has roughly 150h of gameplay in it, so great bang for your buck. Do read up on character builds beforehand. Your points are limited and (without mods) not respeccable.

not great, but fairly entertaining

This game tries to combine 2 Genres--RTS and RPG. it was one of the early Warcraft III clones, and I've spent a lot of time playing it. The RTS part is really fun, considering that you have six races to play with (your choice--or, in some cases, the map's choice), and none of them are really self sufficient--each "side" (Ligh and Dark) is evenly matched, but individual contributing races may not be as well balanced against each other, and this requires smart resource management and planning. The RPG part is more of a hack and slash, which can get tedious at times The original is good, but as some others have mentioned, the campaign gets fairly generic, especially as you run out of side quests. The last few maps (the game revolves around the concept of travelling around islands, which are all that's left in the world, and once you've been to one, you can return to it anytime--at the price of losing everything you've built on your current map) really slide towards hack and slash with your avatar and his party, which gets seriously tedious. THe first expansion (Breath of Winter) is much better, with far more interesting quests and storyline. The second expansion starts of very strong as well, with a lot more focus in quests given to character interaction and introducing a number of "side challenges" (like playing a variation of chess against a god), but towards the end it becomes a real hack and slash grind again. overall though, it's an enjoyable experience if you are looking for something that's like Warcraft III, but with some originality.
