Is it the true RPG with complete moral freedom or A game made out of only eye candy

Ground breakingly innovativion or game where you pick things up and put them down

Is it too slow or just right

Have you played it and do you thinks its the best ever Debate please

(EDITOR: No warez discussion here please, game developers will see that)

Trust is indeed a shiny jewel,set in the stone of friendship.And much like any other stone can be use to crush the skulls of those unsuspecting.To clear the path for me to claim my rightfull place as master of all I survey.

Yeah but what did you think of the game that I am equally interested in.

I TRIED to like it...
really...

not my thing. The Avatars were cool, and the game was pretty. But it felt like a God-version of the Sims.
not my thing...

I liked it a lot but to be honest in my spare time im much more likely to pump for Quake 3 the ultimate adrenaline buster.
Did anyone out there just adore it.

Well, I think B&W is best described as a huge resource management system. It has visual flare, humorous events and situations and an easy to learn/implement interface. The biggest drawback to me was not having the ability to address all issues that arose on a constant basis. Situations were arising that I was not able to address in a timely manner, due to other things already in progress, so I was falling behind on getting creature trained, saving lives, etc. Depression was setting in, as much as I enjoyed the game, so I set it aside and haven't yet gotten back to it.

ARE you sure that works Thantos and thank you so much.

Sageridder what creature did you choose my favorite remains the Monkey the dying scene with him was so sad and moving, it was incredible from a game point of view because previously all sadness in games has been preprogrammed as, in torments scripts of the aeris thing in ff7 and having AI do this spontaneously is amazing.

IMO, didn't enjoy it after the first few 'episodes'.. it becomes a micromanagement nightmare.. and I'm the kind of person that LOVES Sim games.. (Play Sim City 3000 Unlimited all the time--make buildings too)

I'd have given it a 6 out of 10 if I reviewed it on Ironworks.. Graphics DON'T make a game, as we all know..
