I'm shopping for gifts and spotted this, looks BGish, sounds okay but was wondering is any of you know what it like?

I bougth it last saturday and after trying to get it to work all day returned it sunday and got Arcanum. I would not recomend it unless you enjoy aggravation

I downloaded the demo and spent a few hours trying to convince myself that I could read German [img]smile.gif[/img] . In the end, I gave up. I did however, become familiar with German words and phrases like "yes" "no" and "are you sure you want to quit?" Unfortunately that was about the extent of my experience with the game.

The graphics looked pretty cool. And there were lots of stats to adjust -- at least I think they were stats screens. The music was nice.

I read some mixed reviews of the game and they pretty much said it was buggy. I know there is a pretty significant patch out there, but I don't know if it fixes all of the problems.

Hope this helps, or at least makes an amusing story. [img]smile.gif[/img]

I downloaded the patch 3 times (and once the german patch by mistake) and was unable to instal them doing to them being corrupt. It said something like that
