Thank you every one. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wave.gif" alt="" /> You guys couldn't be more helpful.

My friend just installed NWN on his PC, and to my surprise, he told me he was put off by the turn based system of the game. Anyway, he's a hardcore fan of h&s rpgs so I guess that's why. He let me play the game, and I must say that it's a bit confusing. But I guess it's because I'm not used to the controls and stuff. Well, I only played the game for like half an hour so I don't want to make any judgment right now.

I love Divine Divinity for its story line and deep plot, not just the combat. So I might like one of the games I mentioned above. In fact, I find the pause function pretty neat as it buys you some time to think of the next action.

Thanks for the link. I might find some of the information there useful. As for Blade and Sword, I think the game is quite fun despite all the bad reviews. The ancient China setting is certainly a nice diversity. But what I like most about this game is the gruesome action. All those combo atacks are just awesome. And the super attacks can be very useful against bosses although it can be difficult to draw the corresponding symbol on your screen. My favorite character is the girl with blades and when she uses one of her super attacks she graciously move and attack the adjacent monsters at super speed.

Oh, back to the topic. I think I'll give BG2 a try because I've heard all the good things about it. NWN has some pretty graphics but many people say it's boring. I can't choose both because my budget is tight. In the meantime, I'll stick to what I like most: Hack & Slash Rpgs... <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/up.gif" alt="" />
