Now, to be honest : this game exceeds everything. It's so great. I even take holidays to play this game. I'm not that far yet, got my rage box. It's different from what we've seen in the demo but oh my god.

There are a lot of choices to be made during the quests. Sometimes I even wondered about 5 minutes about what to do.

It's even on the cover of our local Belgian magazine (PCGameplay). They are also fond of TBS games and I'm sure they'll give it a great score.

This is : One game to rule them all
Bolded part is exactly how I feel about this game at the moment.

The only thing reviewers will be able to criticize is the story and the translation. Other 'issues' such as the game not knowing when you would like it to save for you is just retarded. That's what quicksave is for, and the game even records your last three quicksaves so you can go back if YOU make a mistake.

I want to talk about the fact that level design is more important than story or even the translation in this game. To be honest with you the story bores me. Yeah, yeah - routine fantasy tale. Basically boils down to - "go here and do this." I find myself clicking through a lot of the dialogue, only skimming it to find out what the job is. Because it's text not speech you can do this easily, and besides, the quest log tells you what to do anyway. This also negates the translation issue. The story just isn't very important in this game.

What this game does have is fantastic level design. It's truly awesome and supremely fun. This game should have a sticker on the box saying 'Guaranteed to be INSANELY fun.' What do you guys think?
