It's good in bits, rubbish in others. Looks/sounds/feels great. Social interactions suck - you tap some buttons until someone likes/hates you, and then run away to some new place - there's simply nothing to do of any real importance - sure you can say 'get drunk and listen to people laugh' etc, then 'go kill monsters while drunk' - doesn't make the game any more interesting.
Good, but nothing, nothing to what it was supposed to be - and that's not just in the missing features, it's also in the simple fact it's just not as good as it should be....
Anyone wanna buy? O, and Riddick too, which was also good, but I didn't love it much either.....
Exactly how long did you play it for?
I gave my guy invisibility and some decent magical protection to start off with. Then I gradually wore my enemies down to start with, running off inviisble if I got too wounded, sometimes I'd just nick their stuff and then there was healing myself with the ring of healing I'd nicked early on etc.
No honour among thieves *Backstab*
Then my character got better and I started killing head honchos, guards and just about anyone who looked down on my character.
Now I'm branching out into spells, thievery etc.
Great stuff.
End.

Hahahahaha.
Sorry.

What difference would that make to all the beardy nonsense that litters the game?
I just find the whole set-up stupidly boring and unintresting. Even if I did have a level 1000 wizard with level 6000 ork armour and the wand of beardy beardson, it wouldn't change the fact that the combat system sucks and the world is about as intresting as the back of a Bran Flakes carton.
Just my opinion though.
