Yes, I agree. Summoner is a much better game than Arcanum. I'm in the middle of playing it at the moment, as I only bought it a few days ago. At first I wasn't sure if I was going to like it. It's very different to <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/div.gif" alt="" />. For a start it's 3D, which takes a bit of getting used to. I find myself constantly getting lost, and the mini-map is useless, as you can't zoom out to see where you are.
If you get the game I highly recommend that you download some maps and a good walkthrough. The other thing that I don't like very much is the combat system. The monster's have hundreds of hit points and the fights seem to take forever. I'm really starting to find the fighting VERY tedious. Oh how much I long for my HELLSPIKES! That said, I have to admit that the storyline has hooked me and I can't seem to stop playing it, I want to know what happens next. The graphics too are simply beautiful. This is the game that Neverwinter Nights should have been.
