Though it's interface is somewhat awkward, background storyline and quests are very good.

I'm sorry that this good game should be hampered by some technical problems. It's interface is somewhat inconvenient and camera view is not very intuitive. Some voice dubbing has nearly no feeling, only just a flat tone no match for situation. Map is the most disappoint factor. Why this game didn't quote the auto-traveling system of recent blockbuster RPG, such as Elder scroll IV : Oblivion? Too much time wasted for just 'traveling'.
Graphic is just so-and-so. Not bad but not good.

But, storyline itself is very impressive and solid. Diverse quests and addictive storyline saves this game from just an uninteresting game. Character growth is somewhat overly complex and some skills or abilities are overlapped, but To somebody(such as I :) this complexity may be a charming point rather than annoying.

Conclusion : Truly worth playing if you can endure some inconvenience.
The cheap price also give a potential of purchase
