Maybe, maybe, but this was my third attempt and the other 2 went for £20 plus! I also checked out all the games shops in Exeter but most hadn't even heard of it. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/silly.gif" alt="" />

I bought the game last year and played some weeks before I had to start my internship (in another country). So I did´t finish yet but I surely will.
Pro:
I liked the graphix and the atmosphere. At the beginning you have to escape from a golbin prison (which is "Thief-Dark Project" like). Later, when you´ve got familiar with the plot, the magic system and the fighting it is really exciting and full of small puzzles (although I am no friend of puzzeling in RPGs), quests and interaction with objects.
Negative aspects:
- Underground only. Dungeons are cool but also a bit depressing and sooner or later you wish to travel in open landscape under a blood-red sky (like in Morrowind e.g.).
- Character development. I prefer a more detailed character dev system with skills, char-attributes and much more.

Do you have the latest patch installed?? I remember I had similar problems with the cutscenes. But after the patch they were gone.
