Man this game bites really bad. I though I would have to brush my teeth
too before hunting for some food. If you like attention to detail than
its for you but the fighting sucks in it too. I would rather be playing
the missing ring for the old apple computers its much better come on
you programmers you can do better than this!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Why don't you just go back to playing with your Sega if you don't like games 
with depth.  The rest of us *TRUE* RPG fans *like* to have such a deep, 
detailed, and enjoyable game to play.  There are all kinds of really cool 
random things that can happen and characters actually act according to their 
stats!  Finally a computer game that does justice to "paper and pen" RPGs such 
as AD&D and we get a bunch of Sega players who don't like it, well I LOVE the 
game, and I know several other people who are also playing the game and we are 
having totally different things happen to us, based on the way we play and the 
types of characters we have -- I LOVE THIS GAME!!!!

Not that it is infallible, it could use a few improvements.

My $.02,

Been playing too much Nintendo, huh?  If you'd give it a chance you'd see
that the combat system is a very good one.  I wouldn't say it's the best
around, but it does derserve some credit.  Yeah, I admit there are some
annoying bugs in the game, but aren't we grown ups who can handle a few
problems?!!!  Geez settle down.  I guess it's your fault for not researching
the game before buying it.  I always buy a couple mags with reviews of the
game I am contemplating purchasing before I go and fork over $50-60 on a
game.  It's only common sense!  So maybe this will be a good experience for
you and you'll learn one of life's little lessons.  Yes, this game is for
very mature role-players and not intended for the general public.  So
take it back and get a different one!
