I was lucky enough to win a copy of the original release from one of the gaming magazines. Played it for years. Had my vote for best game until Torchlight came along.
Super game that I rate not far behind Skyrim (which is my one to beat) 100+ hours of play. Hand to Hand combat is generally better than Skyrim. Finding/interaction with items on ground is a bit odd at first. Weak point for me. Boss monster battles tend to be frustratingly long, until your weapons are above their level.
