Good epic story, but the raving reviews about it are hard to understand.

Yes, the music is good, yes, the maps are well worked out, yes, I like the new way the spells are being used including the new spell.

No, the main storyline is quite unclear, no, it's not always clear what to do next, you may have to tramp up and back again over the whole map and talk to everyone again before you find out, no, you only have magic and/weapons for limited times, no, you'll have to like fighting as you'll have to do loads as you kep tramping up and back and the monsters you killed have all been sprung back to life, no, not all bugs have been fixed yet (got thrown back to windows at least 3 times + freezes at places too + hardness bugs).

So yes, it's a good game and enjoyable to play, but exceptional... not to me.
