    I bought it day one, played ~50 hours but never made it past chapter 2. I liked the visuals and sound but was totally turned off by the combat system (at release if my rogue went invisible, the whole party had to go too. I know its fixed now) and crafting. There is nothing worse for me than a crafting system in my game, but it seems like every game needs one now....

    Edit: Ohh... i forgot, nice review! Like i said above, it wasn't my dream game, maybe it was to high expectation.

    Thanks for the overview of the game. This is one of the scores of games I purchased over the last few years at Good Ol Games (sorry Sorcerers.net, I will try all such purchases thru this site henceforth) and never got around to playing any of the games I purchased. I need to upgrade my gaming PC's GPU. It has a 7 year old GPU - yikes! I recently upgraded everything else in my gaming PC and actually want to give AMD Vega a 'buy' once the pricing settles. That will be my new gaming GPU for a while, then I'll visit this game soon. Thanks again for the overview!
