How can such a badly programmed game be fun to play?... and yet it is!

What should i start with? I guess with the look and feel....extremely dated, this game would have looked and felt dated 5 years ago. The only thing worse than the miserable controls is the camera. Basically you have the choice between a good view with unuseable control and a bad view with useable control.
Its buggy and has issues like bad copy protection that will ask you to insert original DVD and still no patch to address this in sight.
Despite all this, the game is fun to play, its a Diablo-style game at heart but in 3D (half arsed 3D that is the source for most of this games problems) and with more story and quests to it. Big variety of items to find, nice skill system and very interesting Nature versus Technology aspect.
The companion(s) you get are very useful, you have an input over their attributes and decide their behaviour in battles, very well done.
I havent played much into it because I'm too busy playing Saga of Ryzom but so far its been quite fun despite the camera view and the controls which are a pain.
This should have been a budget priced game in my humble opinion.
