Actually, I like the game mechanics. Yes, I know people have complained about the wheel setup, but I played Planescape: Torment enough that it didn't bother me. It just felt good to have a game that would let me build a party per 3.5 rules, and be able to do most everything you can do on tabletop. It did take some time getting used to playing turn-based again (I went from BG1 to Planescape to BG2 to NwN before playing ToEE, so quite an adjustment).

It is a mediocre game, though. The voice acting is bad (I shut the sound off when I play), and it one of the buggiest games I've seen. Oh, and if you don't like the way the NPCs take all kinds of items, there is a fan mod out there that makes them take money only.
