A lot of games don't show thier best side until you've played them for a while, especially ones like Planescape with such deep plots and characters. It's sort of like a TV like The Sopranos. The first few episodes are pretty damn good, but they also introduce you to the characters and thier worlds, which means latter episodes are much more effective when they start breaking them down, and are alot better than the early episodes because of that.
As regards Planescape, whatever you do, don't give up before you get out of the Mortuary - that's one of the games few falws, it's seemingly Bioware's insistance on starting every RPG with a dull, linear dungeon (although even then it's better than most, there's more than one way to go about it, for example). Also make sure you have good stats in intelligence and wisdom, as that way you get more conversation choices and get to see more of the plot, makes the game much better.
