    I just wondered why in the nine hells so many people despises this game, and why it is so unheard of in my part of the world.
    Sure it has alot of bugs, but it IS the closest thing you get to PnP atm. It has great combats, funny people, good dialouges, a decent plot, good gameplay and nice graphics...
    But stil I hear alot of people saying it's the worst purchase the have ever made. And even more people despises it because, as they say: "It's just one big dungeon crawl".

    Why is this game so underrated? state your opinion.

    I think a lot of what you is true.I loved the game play as well and thought the combat was great.

    However there is just no good reason the game should of have been released when it was.There was just far to many bugs and they took far too long to fix them.

    Its a shame though cause now I fear I will never get to play Against the Giants or any of the other old classic modules from the Greyhawk world.

    I loved the game and didn't experience many of the bugs and crashes that plagued others. Now with the patches, i hope more people get into it and somebody make a character editor akin the the great 'Keepers' of the IWD and BG series'.

    Look...you can actually SEE the cloak!! :p
