There's a lot in this game that isn't so great, but it is cheap and there's lots of it - just like a pizza buffet! On the plus side, the world is huge and varied. There are lots of very good quests and some funny moments as well. The game works well with 3D Vision (use ~ then enter engine.HDR=0 to help it). Combat is fun once you figure out that you can't be a pure mage or archer. Tons of loot. On the minus side, some quests are broken, some skills have no use at all (why have an unhorse skill when no enemy ever rides a horse?), and NPCs are often downright oblivious to you stealing. Check the GOG forums for a fix to the lip sync issue.
