If you like old school turn based RPG's, don't think twice, get this game TODAY, and play it.
The game really pulls you in. It feels much more like a real world than the first one. It's not perfect and it is definitely not Elder Scrolls. But there is still a ton to do. The side quests are almost overwhelming at time. The maps still feel boxy and two dimensional though. It isn't a "fluid" game world. But it is still so reminiscent of old school CRPG conventions that have been all but lost. Party oriented turn based top down RPG's are getting rarer and rarer. So, I can forgive the lack of fluidity for ghetto awesomeness.
Most characters feel truly three dimensional, especially the enemies. I wish I could say I loved ALL of them, but many were just too downright obnoxious. Great villains and a few brilliant comrades make it all worthwhile though.
