When I played this game I was addicted, and I still am.
This game fill all the requirements of a RPG´s. You have great story, good graphics to the year 2002 and a excellent main play.
This game is one of the most legendary games of Bioware like Baldur´s Gate and the most recent one Dragon Age:Origins.
Like most part of RPG´s you can create your character. You can be a Human an Elf and a Dwarf. Then there are very classes to chose and you envolvivng the character you can chose more than one class.
The main story is very good and original and you always have quests to do.
You can craft your armor your weapons, you can summon animal companions if you are a ranger or a wizard (for example...)... you can do a lots of things.
This is a great game for the year 2002 and he´s still.
