No, it's pants (IMHO). It's nothing like W&W, which I am just finishing too actually. Go for IWD2 as that's a great game.

What really sucks ass about wizardry 8 is the combat, 20 minute battles with weak enemies are the norm, you might say fair enough but wait til you get in one, it's not because you need a strategy or to think anything through but because the enemies move at minus 10 miles an hour.

Ironweed one moves- wiggle, wiggle, wiggle, .......Ironweed 27 moves Wiggle, Wiggle, Wiggle, yawn.

I found myself running away from anything vaguely hostile as I couldnt face another long winded encounter.

I sold the game on Amazon in the end. Buy IWD2 or Might and Magic 9, or in fact anything else.
