Zolton, I installed this game a week ago and though I needed some help in how certain things were done I can honestly say I have really enjoyed myself. Here are my reasons:
1. The world is huge and is basically non-linear which brings you a significant amount of freedom.
2. Leveling up is done two ways: Completing Quests and Fighting Monsters, et. al. You gain experience points. In a sense it is like Diablo and NOX but more so. As the game progresses, though, it becomes more and more like an RPG. If you are looking for a Baldurs Gate or IWD clone this is not it. Nor is it a Diablo/NOX clone. It probably is best like a combination.
3. As you level up you get five points to place wherever you want in character statistics. Also you will get one skill point to choose various skills. The good thing is that you are not limited to any one class. I am a Warrior but I also am able to cast spells and have some thieving abilities. It is a really cool way to shape your character AND it forces you to be wise in your choices.
4. The side quests are cool and you will need to take every one that comes along if you want to get to higher stats and gain more skills. Try to fight every monster that comes along, too.
5. The graphics are nice, though the PC seems a little wooden to me. I wish it had more fluidity like BG characters in movement, etc. The music, bleh! - but I just turned it down to low.
Overall it is a fun game to play. I suggest looking at My posts to DD Veterans and that should give you a greater feel for the game.
