While many gamers might be put off by the free roaming style, equally so it will appeal to a wide array of people who like games such as Oblivion or Fallout. You don't need to follow a preset linear path and you can even ignore the main story quest and roam around the lands doing whatever you want.​

However playing Devil's Advocate there is also a sense of unimportance about the whole experience. The games main strength is therefore also its weakness. With the lack of a focused main quest to drive players on there is sometimes very little incentive to keep playing. Levelling up characters and forging a trade empire is fun, but without objectives it will be very much up to the individual to find reward from the title. Sometimes specific objectives require characters of a specific level, so a certain part of the game will require grinding to progress.

Storm Of Zehir is a trip back to older RPG territory with much of the focus on the wide open and expansive nature of the game. There is not a reliance on a tightly scripted story based interface like KOTOR or Mass Effect which seems to be the style of choice today. This will be a refreshing change for many and a fun experience, after all its not always realistic to assume that the character(s) we play can change the fate of the world we are in!​
