It has everything the other games have but flows much better. Less selling more playing.
I'm the same as many here ,I played it when it first came out even with all the bugs and have been playing it ever since. Highly recommended. The races aren't balanced and shouldn't be as one race can provide a far different experience than another. Nothing I enjoy more than being stuck on an island with Klackons and only room for one city. Magic spirit time. You can use a few methods to power through to an easy victory or choose an extremely difficult path and everything in between. To use your own magic in your home city you need to keep your gold under 15000. There is still a number of buggy things but no deal breakers for me.
