    [​IMG] Started playing again after 1 year off. LOL.

    I love this game though - great time on the surface after all that dungeon crawling. Can't wait to get back underground!

    So I've logged another 8 hours or so - and I'm still outside! That I didnt expect - I thought the whole game was underground. Honestly I love the game and I don't understand all the negative reviews. Its clear the developers put some serious effort into the artwork, combat system etc. It really feels like a pen and paper game. When fans and critics bash a game like this (or Temple of Elemental Evil) all they do is guarantee there won't be another game made.

    Anyway - love the game and I just bought the Prima Strategy Guide (used on Amazon) even though I'm a good 60% through the game. I've got alot of quests outstanding and there are areas I simply can't figure out.

    Money well spent on that, at least; the PoR novel is quite good, for FR standards.

    I think the SP walkthrough is the best there is for this game-extremely well put together and thought out!

    And I loved this game too. :)

    Haven't read the novel yet, but it sounds interesting...

    The way I see it - a game considered so universally vile must be pretty good - since people love to bandwagon bashing sessions because its "trendy".

    POR2 will be cult classic - you'll see!

    "In the Dungeons eh? Can you be more specific?"
