I loved it when it first came out!

I really loved this game. I was ill at the time it came out so I spent about 4 days non-stop playing it (which ended up killing my PS2 CD drive :). I was a very gripping game which I enjoyed immensely, even though it was a bit repetitive in combat. The number of different equipable items (as far as I can recall, 14 years later) was large though and the characters progressed interestingly. Maybe you remember a short video that was doing the rounds around the time of this game with a couple of geeky character playing a roleplaying game, and where the wizards uses magic missile to "attack the darkness"? Yup, those are characters from this game, and I believe the video came with the game somewhere too. (Just search "attack the darkness youtube") Certainly worth the small amount of money GOG asks for it.

Tiresome

I admit, I didn't get very far into the game. The game itself saw to that: Once you've left the obligatory destroyed-hometown-cum-combat-tutorial, you've got a few quests in your journal and once possible destination city. Unfortunately, all of those quests are of the "Go see <Some NPC>" variety, and the city you enter is chock full of NPCs, none of which give you any indication of who you're looking for (the "speech bubbles" on some NPCs sometimes mean they have a quest for you, but more often, just some random exposition. After two hours of fruitless searching -- which netted me three more "seek the NPC" sidequests - I just couldn't be bothered anymore.

Very absorbing setting

I love the lore of this game. Has real air of mystery to it enhanced with the games wonderful soundtrack. The characters are fun also. The only bad thing is the combat its not interesting and when you pick up spells it becomes broken (casting firewall through solid walls for max cheese) That said the game kept me playing to the end and its the only game where i spoke to every NPC i ever met lol.

Very Nice Oldie

I feel this is a truly underrated gem. I have played it through about 3 or 4 times over many years, always to the end, and I keep playing it again. I think its the story that attracts me, and the sheer amount of content. There are lots of areas. The combat gets repetitive, except for boss fights, which are always interesting. I give it 5 stars simply because even after all these years I can start playing it, and I still want to play it to the end. For such an old game to draw my interest deserves it a place on my shelf. Forever.

Not exceptional, but charming

Even in its day, this game had many shortcomings compared to other better known RPG's; the dialogue was drab and underwritten, the graphics were questionable, the characters looked like the walking dead, and the story was a slow burn... but underneath all of that was an excellent sense of atmosphere, aided by a wonderful soundtrack. That, and the combat system are still the game's biggest strengths. Older gamers and historians who remember the 'good ol' days' will appreciate this title more than anyone else.
