Solid and good Wizardry Entry
Many Wizardry fans probably know that Wizardry, since it exists, took a lot of different roots and experiments. The last experiment, Wizardry 8, pretty much killed the franchise... almost. While the west gave up on Wizardry after the debacle that was 8, the Japanese went back from these experiments and focused on the earlier titles that where most liked by the fans. And this is the result. From the visuals, there is no doubt that this is from a Japanese developer, but other then the looks, this is good old Wizardry. Like "The Five Ordeals" this is back to the roots and yes, some people don't like oldshool dungeon crawler so if you don't... you should not buy one. It is not 100% oldshool though. Obviously the graphics are 3D (except the sprites which are 2D which i personally prefer), but it does come with some improvements/quality of life features other modern Dungeon Crawler have too. For example, outside of the Dungeon, you no longer have to walk around the town but can just directly select where you want to go (Basically like in TRPG). It seems like some people dislike that but the game is already very long, that is a good improvement to save you wasting time and, as said, all modern dungeon crawler do this, for a good reason. Also most of the stuff is explained inside the game, you do not have to read a 100 page manual to be able to play the game. So its not 100% authentic but lets be honest, that would be unrealistic to expect. But imho these are rather minor changes, the overall tone and look&feel that made Wizardry famous to begin with is there, just transported in the modern age. Overall it is weaker than "The Five Ordeals", there are no DLC (there is one, but no new), there is no tool to create your own adventures and so on. Its a port of an PS3 game, nothing more, nothing less. If you want more, you have to get Five Ordeals which comes in at a higher price too.
