This game takes some getting into. I've tried several times over the years and none of those times did it click. Everything is very difficult, everyone's out to kill you, blah blah blah. But this time I started and it did click. I finally got the combat system, I trusted the advice that you really, REALLY, should choose like 1 weapon skill, 1 defense skill, and 1 main / 1 secondary civic skill. The game then really does play like an adventure. You can't do everything. Choices matter. Sometimes you screw up and people end up dead. But once it gets it's hooks in you, even with 2015 graphics, it's still quite enjoyable.
