It's about freaking time!
I have no idea why GOG dragged it's ass on accepting this game into it's portfolio. Whatever the reason it wasn't justified, cause now steam had plenty of time to take most of it's sales. Damn shame. Avernum is a remake of a remake of a classic dungeon crawler RPG (then called Exile), and aside from a few issues of having more pigeonholing aspects (namely the starting dungeon, which rubs me the wrong way since it adds a Irenicus's Dungeon onto what once was just a small friendly fort with a portal in the middle) it is a remake that fully justifies it's existence. The huge and for the most part open world that you can explore and dozens of dungeons to delve are still there, but now on top of much nicer visuals there's strategy elements to spice the gameplay up. Positioning and abilities play an important part now if you don't want to get shredded by the hordes of enemies you'll face. And it seems like the dev was really pushing to make everything in it more memorable, the locations and characters and so on. In the face of overproduced and restrictive modern rpgs that overfocus on bad writing/characters, and soddy weaksauce kickstarted rpgs that leave no impression on the player (looking at you Wasteland 2 and Dead Man's Switch), the Spiderweb games stand as a nice alternative that feels better then it's screenshots and bargain bin price implies. Definitely a must try.
