Tags: Night WatchNext Level Gaming has a review of Night Watch. They hated it, gave it a 50/100 score, and had this to say about how fun it was:
With the speed of modern games it is very hard to pull of a fun turn based RPG anymore. Pool of radiance is the last PC RPG I can think of that was fun. The game would have been much better served with a structure like Neverwinter Nights, the calculations of combat are handled turned based but the action never stops. I could see the game being turned based if there were lots and lots of options and choices for the player to deal with, but there are not enough options to warrant turn-based combat. A well-designed user interface could have easily picked up the pace of this game and made it more enjoyable.Pool of Radiance was the last fun turn based CRPG? Is that the early 1990s one or the recent sequel? Either way, this boy's a twit. The conclusion is pretty remark worthy as well.
