Creepy Atmosphere
The graphics in this game are very nice. The spells being cast, the creepy atmosphere, the living breathing environment around you make this more fun and should get you hooked pretty quickly.
Guns don't do as much damage as they should. This game mostly focuses on the melee and spellcasting parts of gameplay. That doesn't mean guns are useless, though. They're good for long range when hiding in a high place, and stuff like that.
Another great thing is how well it's all put together. You can change the storyline just by choosing different options when talking to people. Such things like the ability to choose whether or not to go get an item for somebody so they will give something in return, or just kill them and get that item they have. With the different storyline paths, this game has a good replayability for playing through a second or third time to find out what would happen if you did this or that, changing around the storyline a bit.
So in conclusion, this game is a good choice to try out if you are debating on whether or not to do so. If you're into the classic hack and slash RPG games, this may not be the game for you. But if you're looking for something a little more like Deus Ex (better than Deus Ex in my opinion) this is a game worth trying out.
