If you want a high-quality RPG, then you should draw your attention to other RPGs. Otherwise prepare to waste a lot of time. Setting and Lore Writers have failed to present an engaging fantasy. From struggling nations to religious metaphysics, all is shallow and primitive. One only wants to compare it with D&D. Characters, Quests, Writing I dare to say all of characters are flat plastic dolls. One encounters huge amounts of whiny infantile men, female soldiers and who knows what else. Quests are in the tradition of MMORPGs - mindless grinding and killing. Writing is mediocre at best and abhorrent at worst. Absence of style - no difference between a veteran general and a dumb elven lass in plate armor. It is painful to read it. Gameplay It is shitty offline MMORPG with autolevelling. Mindless, dull repetitive combat is a half of total content. Instead of presenting compelling story and roleplaying, developer mocks the player and gives him chambers full of mindless dolls to kill. [I mean what i said, one needs 50 hours to complete it, and 25 hours are diablo-like grinding] Technical Realization Overall, average perfomance. Style of graphics makes one's eye to bleed. Occasional crashes, especially in overcrowded combat due to engine overloading. Roleplaying/Freedom Now, one has come to the core. Roleplaying is the choices one makes in dialogues of linear quest. Consequences for your actions (and crimes) are absent. An illustration of both points: one comes to a clan of barbaric nomad xenophobic elves. There he meets a local, an infantile whiny virgin boy, and learns of boy's desired lass. Then, because he can, he seduces her (or simply rapes) to mock the boy. A grievous insult. Which every knifeear ignores. Absolutely. Later, one decides to genocide all the treelovers, including the virgin and the lass. Even a sociopath would not enjoy this because of unrealistic story and plastic character behaviour. Conclusion Buy something better, support other developers.
Simply put, this game is a timeless masterpiece. It offers deep roleplaying experience and unlimited freedom of choice. Dialogues, characters, and stories are comparable with high-quality literature. Life and Death blend together in Planescape, bizarre creatures inhabit it. Though, the most bizarre being will be you... Can you survive in this grim and foul place, where order is just disguised chaos? How would you save your sanity? Maybe, you have failed already. And not once.
