4.5 to 5 Stars, a classic gem
In terms of sheer value alone, you need to get this if you've never played it. You will get over 100 hours of content without mods easily. More likely 120 hours plus, for 15 dollars, in a game with relatively good graphics (spells are awesome!) for 2006. Sadly this game was near unplayable at launch, but numerous patches have made it worth it. As cliche as the original campaign is, it's a cliche story done damn well with very memorable characters. (My personal favorite being Ammon Jerro, the posterboy for "neutral evil") Mask of the Betrayer took everything you loved about the OC and made it epic. It took everything you hated about the OC and made it better. While the game engine provided some limitations (primarily the camera) MOTB was one of the pinnacles of RPG's for the PC. No storyline since has come close to matching it. The guys at Obsidian are master storytellers, and they really shine here. The difficulty is really ramped up, and you'll find it obscenely cheap at the start of MOTB, but you simply have to adjust. Storm of Zehir is the sleeper of this product. It isn't an epic story, but it is probably the one with the most charm. Very folksy style where you grab an adventure party and see where the world takes you. Mysteries of Westgate obtained a bit of a cult following, but it really wasn't for me. Not much polish and too many holes. Maybe I'll play it again and see if 5 years have been kind to it. But really, get this game.
