well, not me. but i still love porsches! LOL!!
i think this game is the answer to a crpg lover's dreams. it has everything you ever want in one. good storyline, great characters, epic battles... and the design house is/was top-notch.
if you scan thru this board, you will see our love for it all over the place. our mods have a great newspaper "Dominus Digest" that gets put up regularly detailing events in our rpg world. we have posted screenies of our fave baddies and all talk about our crews alla time.
char creation: grade A+
you can choose premade chars or spend hours putting together your dream team. in fact, you should enjoy that part of team design, because there are so many factors that go into making good characters. i think a lot of us here have tried 2 or 3 different teams just to get one that works well for us.
combat: grade B+
varied, lots of different enemy types, and they are anything but easy. there are 3 settings for difficulty, not including Ironman, and *whew!* sometimes i haveta back outa Normal and play Novice for a bit. they spawn all over the place. could make for great moments of frustration if you find out your party blows chunks! LOL.
storyline: grade A
this is a personal thing. it's very apparently a mix of fantasy and scifi/tech. some people hate that, so they would say it flunks out on that score. unfortunately, some of our compadres have bowed out of playing it because of it. however, i'm not one of those and i am completely loving the story.
this is prolly the last game in a nice, long series. i only discovered it recently, and could kick myself for not finding out about it sooner.
i hope you decide to try it. it would be fun to have another player join our board to talk about their chars and what happens in their game!
