Greatest game ever? I think so, but you should decide for yourself.
For once someone has got the perfect mix for an RPG. Impressive game play, a none stop roller coaster ride of twists and turns that they then called a story line, the thousands of NPC’s and the none stop character development makes this the game of games that WILL rival everything before it, and most probably everything after it.
The character classes leave a uncountable number of possibilities (especially if you have the expansion packs as well) for your character with the option to multi-class and the mountain of feats and skills that you can obtain would make a real life hardened warrior weep in fear, then on to the magic in the game. There are vast amounts of spells and potions to strengthen your character and make the game take a whole new turn.
The graphics are admittedly nothing to rival the likes of Oblivion, but they are good enough for you to be amazed when you get a new spell and cast it for the first time, or encounter a new monster. The scenery is marvellous to say the least and everything that is in the game is available in the Aurora Toolset allowing you to make your own maps and campaigns that add a whole new lifetime of playtime to the game.
All in all this game would be a worthy addition to anyone’s game collection and I guarantee that even if you didn’t like RPG’s before that this has something to offer everyone.
