This game is pretty decent. It's a little different than most Diablo clones, you can play it with a controller. You get combos as you level up. It's a little buggy, I don't think it jives with Windows XP. I reinstalled windows because while trying to get the video to work right, I corrupted stuff. It turns out all I had to do was click off the "slow gameplay" button in the options. It made the menus and the game stutter like crazy with it on. With it off the game ran a little too fast, but it was tolerable. Kinda crappy graphics, but its an interesting game.
People who ditch this game, stop whinning...

Yeah there are a few annoying things with this game, and it's old now but I mean this is one of the few games got me sat in my chair for 2 days trying to beat it. Well it's a lot more fun than stragety games which I've been playing, heh But overall I think they did a good job with story telling, graphics, and I can't give anything to sound, coz the sound was messed up for me (still I played *grins* )
Now this is something I should whine, this game is quite buggy and Eidos knows people still love this game and should make a better patch for it especially to make run more stable in XP anywayz. I don't know about other people, but this game crashed left and right the moment I installed it. (still it didn't stop me from playing, hehe)
You all should be happy that you beat it and saw the ending because this game crashed on me forever and I only need to kill one more guy to finish the game.... grrahahahah *pulls hair out*... Merry xmas anywayz...
Well, 4 1/2 butif you like Diablo, you'll LOVE this game!!

This game is sweet, and when killing monsters gets annoying for level gaining, unlike Diablo, this game has number cheats, meaning you hit number on the keyboard. although a gamepad or USB adapter is highly recconmended, you should get this all the same.
You don't get bord

This is the game for any player of RPG's that are tired of getting so bored, that you never make it to the end. With a good plot line, and monsters you can actually beat without wandering the landscape for years building up experience points, this game is a genuine joy to play. The main character is gritty, and while a bit dark, he fits perfectly into the storyline.
I consider myself an average RPG player, who plays these games for a month or so and then gets discouraged when there's no chance in hell I'm going to beat it before I'm fifty. This game wasn't like that at all. With minimal commitment time, you can beat the game in about two months, and yet, if you wanted to, you could lessen the time or increase it, depending on how you want to play.
The game has one main cave so for those of you who hate those cave/dungeon mazes, this is an excellent choice.
At [its listed price]it's a steal! Those new to RPG's will love this game, and those that just like to play around with them will too. For ten bucks, you'll be getting your money's worth!
Great gift item

This game is fantastic and is everything a gamer needs in an RPG My official rateing:
Fun Factor-5
Sound-4
Graphics-5
Control-3 Controls are odd, would rather use my mouse like a diablo style game, but they had to be diff.
Over all a 5 very great game, needs a Gamepad for full effect of gameplay.

I got a good deal on this game. I purchased it ... at a local retailer and the thought 'if it sucks i'm not out much' went through my mind. I brought it home and installed it not expecting much out of this game. Once I started playing though I was blown away. This is a great game in the spirit of Diablo 2 and Nox. You start out as a revenant, a resurrected spirit with no recollection of your past. You must fight an evil cult and rescue the king's daughter, at least I think he was a king, i didn't really pay much attention because the dialogue is annoying in this game.
Aside from the annoying dialogue, and it is very annoying, the rest of the game rocks. The way spells are cast is interesting and different from normal games where scrolls are memorized or written in a magic book. The melee combat is good because your character has 4 different attacks instead of the one slash attack in Diablo 2. Granted he can't learn a whirlwind attack or leap attack but who cares? That's not realistic anyway.
The graphics and sound are both very good. The only problem is sometimes I have difficulties picking up items off the ground, especially if they are hidden behind the leaves of a tree. Also, sometimes you will get stuck behind a rock or the edge of a fence line and it takes a bit to get unstuck, but you never remain there forever.
I also like the way I can see enemies on my map so if my health is very low and I have no food or potions I can avoid them, making my way back to town.
This game is worth as much as $36.95. I might have given it a few more dollars if it weren't for the annoying dialogue.

I truely enjoyed this game from the start to the end. I liked the fact one could carry an unlimited number of items, I found it refreshing that one doesn't need a strategy guide to get through it. I thought the graphics and non-player type characters were great. The only problem I had was the intro video, it for some reason wouldn't play right on my machine, but I found it no big deal since one usualy only watches that the first time they go to play the game anyway. I found myself looking forward to playing it whenever I had free time. I fully recommend it if you like a lot of hack n' slash, cool graphics & sounds, and a character that can get away with saying some quite offensive dialog to people and get away with it. My friends who played it so far also loved it and got a big kick out of it.
