The scenery was quite nice and yoiu could do a fair amount with the camera to look at it.

I also liked the idea of improving skills by constant use. Instead of starting off as a wizard/fighter/whatever you became that character type by the skills you used most (and your equipment choices were limited as a result)

It's a pity the whole thing didn't involve much more in the way of strategy than click and try not to get mobbed without a variety of skills available.

The real killer for me was its astonishing linearity though. How believable is a world where you can only walk a single path in either direction? Complete contrast to Baldur's Gate where you could wander freely. Sure, moving off the story path could easily get you killed but I demand the right to get myself killed!

A thread most controversial, that’s what I want to start
Full of impassioned arguments, of posting from the heart
And for this stimulation all will be thankful to me
On come on everybody it won’t work if you agree
