    [​IMG] I just picked up this game from the bargain bin and it seems really promising (although I havent installed it yet). I have not heard a word about it, it is a few years old but is supposed to be a good ole fashioned rpg in bg style. The impression I got from the manual seems very positive. Have anyone heard anything or even played this game?

    Edit: I have read a few reviews and the like and htey are not overly positive. Supposedly this is a bad ripoff of BG, however, with the current dry of good RPG games a blatant BG ripoff doesnt sound all that bad. Even if it is no where near the original.

    Ah is that the one with 4-5 disks? PC gamer magazine gave it something like 10% out of 100. I think I read nothing but bad things about. If I am thinking of the same one then it is even worse then PoR.

    I found this ->

    It crashed just after I created my character and started the game. It is sad actually cause the game has a lot of potential. Sure it is a ripoff but of what I have seen of it and read of it there are quite a few interesting features. It is made by the same company which recently made "Spellforce" which supposedly is a great game. I picked it up just because there is a severe draught in the pc gaming market. Seems to have been a bad buy but I didnt pay much for it. I will give it another shot or two and see if it crashes then as well.

    Yup, the patch is installed. The game manages to crash on the first map. Kinda sad actually.

    I Figured that I was probably asking a stupid question, but better to ask, I guess.
