The Dark Alliance games weren't too bad for what they were; I rather
enjoyed them. Despite their names, they were no "Baldurs Gate" but for
a quick single-player action-RPG I actually found them preferable to
the Diablo series.

Unfortunately, I'm getting more of a "D&D Daggerdale" vibe from Sword
Coast Legends, and Daggerdale was just an awful, awful game. I'd love
if Sword Coast lived up to its promise, but this is definitely a title
that I am in no rush to purchase.
