The universe is in the throes of violent upheaval and change. Vast and mysterious forces are preparing for the final confrontation. A small group of heroes from distant lands must plunge into the heart of the maelstrom, to uncover long-forgotten secrets, and bring about a new era. Should they succeed, they will gain the powers of the gods themselves. If they fail, countless worlds will fall into the grip of darkness.

Battle your way to victory using your swords, your magic, and your wits. Compete with rivals or align with allies as you struggle to ascend to the Cosmic Circle. Take the battle to the dreaded Dark Savant in Wizardry 8, the phenomenal conclusion to the Dark Savant trilogy, one of the most extensive and challenging stories ever told in classic role-playing games!

Choose a custom personality for each character and hear them speak over 100 lines of dialogue. Kindly or chaotic, burly or surly - how your characters act is completely up to you.
Talk with intelligent characters who react to how you treat them and become your allies or enemies in your quest of 200 hours of gameplay or more.
When this game was released in 2001 it was decidedly and aggressively old-school, but still managed to get repeated RPG of the year awards. It still holds up today, but thanks to Sir Tech's bankruptcy, copies of the game have been selling for nearly 200 dollars apeice.
Which makes GoG quite the bargain! Snap it up, or play Crusaders of the Dark Savant first--it's my personal favorite.
I have played this game multiple times and had great fun. As for difficulty it can be hard if you make mistakes early but I have won the game with a party where I picked the worst profession for each of the races. I have also won with a party of 6 Dracon Valkyries. Google Flamestryke for help great web page.
Having played Wizardry 8 and completed it, I found that this game has just an incredible amount of depth to it. There is just such high replay value as well. You can play any number of combinations with your group. Gog must have sacrificed some virgins to get this devilishly good game. I rank this up there with Baldur's Gate in terms of depth and replay. If your new to gaming or used to modern graphics, seriously give this a try and don't be put off. I can tell you this, the game will sink its teeth into you.. and not let go. Great experience
Wizardry 8 is the end of a trilogy, and coincidentally the last game Sir Tech released as they were going out of business. While you don't need to have played the previous games, they do help give a lot of context; I'd recommend reading plot summaries, though they're not necessary.
It's an 8(!)-person party dungeon crawler, but you only design 6; during the course of your travels on Dominus you may pick up 2 recruitable characters ("RPCs") along the way. There's roughly a dozen of them, but several are quest-specific and will only join you temporarily.
The interface is decidedly old-school; this came out in 2001 (and its immediate predecessor in 1992). The graphics do the job but they won't sell you on the game. Roaming around is in realtime and not confined to a grid unlike previous titles, though combat is turn based. On a related note, the animations have issues, the vanilla game is S-L-O-W. Search the GOG forums for wiz8fast and a sped-up animations mod, otherwise you'll hate combat - and you do a LOT of it in this game.
The story is okay, even if you're new to the series. The main draw imo is the party design - the game has unique classes not seen elsewhere, and the limitations of the classes and races will make you spend hours dreaming up fun party combinations. You pick personalities too, and they're all voice acted and have different things to say in different situations - really helps bring them alive.
Skills are usage-based, and while you can allocate some points during level up it's better to simply use them. This does encourage grinding, but it shouldn't be an issue since the game throws tons of enemies at you.
There's level scaling - while not inherently bad, here it doesn't hold back: you can and will encounter stronger enemies as often as weaker ones. It takes a while before you outlevel most enemies, which is usually by endgame.
It's definitely aged and not for everyone. But if you love challenges in your RPGs, this is right up your alley.
I LOVE this game. You can go your whole life and never play it the same way twice thanks to the wide and varied selection of characters, professions and personalities. And when you finish the game... you ascend as a cosmic lord to rule over space, time and all of esistance. Now THATS how you finish a game!!
Yes its a bit old by now but so what. Bugs can be useful. The last time I played it there was a graphics glitch that had a map of black dots form on the floor around bad guys so I always knew when they where lurking round a corner. Never had issues with sound and I dont remember it ever crashing or going slow.
Installing it was a challenge in its self thats why once it was on the pc, It never came off.
I loved my team. Even though it was just a game, I feel we bonded and I do sometimes think back to that summer when rfs81 knocked out nessie with one punch in the bayjin sea caves and we all piled on that sea dragon with our swords, spells till it was gone...sighs.. That was an awesome summer.
I have three studs in my ear. One for each artifact from this game because THATS how much I love it and yes,,, I did vist all three retro dungeons in the game.
Have you...?
This game is waiting for a review. Take the first shot!
