Lacking original storyline and making it incredibly hard this game can be terribly frustrating.

Choose a warrior, mage, or a thief. None of which seem all that different, all of the mage's spells and attacks look and act the same the same goes for warrior and thief. None of them have different twists or turns and with all that effort put into the different types of characters it wouldn't please anyone that there is almost no difference.

The fighting system is horrible.

Step A: Select your party.

Step B: Select the enemy.

Sigh no creativity has gone into this game at all. Although it uses a never before seen system that combines real-time strategy and RPG, the system is horrible that I pray to never see again.

The graphics are good but it's hard to see anything.

The sound is simple but the cutscenes sound is excellent.

Overall this game may be good if you're looking for old-school rpg games and it's defintaley good to pick up to see the combination of real-time strategy and RPG. But this game doesn't present anything new and it just seems like they only put effort into the cutscenes.

    Only thing it's really missing is an online system. While this game is a decade old, I still find myself going to play it. Lords of Magic:SE is one of the most balanced games I've played and is defiantly worth a try if y... Read Full Review
