Looks like I'm in a minority not being overly enthusiastic about this. I admit having only played a couple of hours, maybe my opinion will change, but so far the only redeeming quality seems to be the old-school look and feel, but ... the combat is repetitive and lacking any depth, you have to find the right combination of actions with the available skills and spells and repeat them to death (at least in other similar games you could disengage or retreat, here it is a stupid lock in combat until one side is dead - I hated this in TOEE as well but even there you have a small chance to flee if you are far from the enemy), graphics are not bad but I don't find them very attractive either, that is a matter of personal taste anyway. Some action graphics looks outright ugly, like the white markers for entering buildings. The inventory is ok, but a step back from MM6-8 paperdolls, looks more like MM9 style. Going full 3D for an old-school game looks weird to me, I still prefer the pre-rendered animations of inns/shops from older MMs. I can't speak much about the character development and skill system since I have barely scratched the surface, but it seems to be lacking in some areas. Is there any skill for disarm traps or alchemy? Or they are not available from start?
