<A href="http://www.pcgamer.com/">PC Gamer</a> has a review in their latest issue about <A href="Http://www.spidweb.com/geneforge2/">Geneforge 2</a> where it gets an <b>80%</b> rating. It's mostly positive, and here's a clip:

<blockquote>The one major and glaring affliction is the old-school look of the graphics. Unless you've been gaming since the early Ultimas, the low end visuals may be a bit tough to accept- particularly given the current standard in the genre, courtesy of games such as Morrowind and Neverwinter Nights. But I'm here to say that you should accept them, and gladly, too- the gameplay is that good. Try the demo(even if just to laugh at the graphics) and I'll bet you're hooked within 15 minutes.</blockquote>

Fifteen minutes sounds about right. That's when I stopped noticing the graphics because I was sucked in.

Thanks, <b>Pooperscooper</b>!

The state of insanity.
Not too shabby, actually. Nice to see this game getting more coverage. I too agree with the 15 minutes part. Actually though, I was hooked sooner since I had experience with the first one and knew pretty much what I was getting into.
