I played it for a few days and got bored. I felt it was too repetitive. Maybe I missed something I don't know. But I feel I never should have bought it.
Great atmosphere and gameplay. Music and visuals are both great. It does end somewhat abruptly but the whole process is fun. I'll replay it sometimes with different traits / stats. I think it should be quite a different experience.
It's just brilliant, one of my all-time favourites. A great relic from the times when gaming was not taken as seriously as now. I think developers had much more freedom and creativity then...
The graphics are great, the world is very beautifully made. I like the spells and the fact that you can make any combination of classes in one character. The mirror is great, so you don't have to use console like in some older games to change class etc. I don't like the linearity of the game, the fact that you have different worlds/towns (levels) as you progress and cannot return. It's very Diablo-like actually, but turn based, I've always felt Diablo was half arcade :) I've a feeling I'm passing levels to get tougher monsters and that's it. Combat is nice, although it's a bit repetitive after you make a good party and get the hang of it. Maybe I should change the difficulty level. I actually enjoyed better while my party was not well balanced :) The items are boring, you linearly pick up higher levels as you progress. There are too many, and after some time they started tiring me, as nothing special happens with new items, except having more armor or a bit higher bonus on some stat or whatever... Music is very good, congratulations to the composers... After some time the game became a bit boring and too linear, I remember having the same problem with the Witcher, which I didn't finish also.. I've come to the Nameless island (level 3) and I think I'll stop now and finish the game in a few months or so, or I won't... I don't dig the story actually, although you can see they did put effort to make it so extensive. Or maybe I'm just too old :) P.S. It crashes every once in a while (I'm playing in 2020) Now when I wrote it all down 3 stars seems too much :) but still 2 i too low...
GOOD: The whole game. The graphics, atmosphere, music, story. It's still great after 23 years... BAD: The censorship is unnecessary and it crashes quite a bit on Win10. I feel that the publisher should make the ultimate official patch after 23 yrs and still selling this game and it's sequels.
