This is by far more than a game. Its the biggest revolution in gaming since Zelda:Orcarina of Time. Let me break it up for you
-----------------------------------------------------------
Gameplay: There isnt too much to say here. You walk, you talk to
people, and the talking is like all RPG's you choose what you want to
say, choose your response etc. Everything is normal, then comes the
fighting system. Even thought it is very simple (right trigger to
attack, basically) it is very effective. Trust me, even though it
sounds plain and boring....its not.
Graphics: Extraordinary! Thats all you need to know Extraordinary. The
games has this certain glow to it that is magical. You really have to
play it yourself to understand. The game also contains raining, and
when it is its great. Especially if you go near a body of water when
its raining you really see the detail of the ripples...its
extraordinary. Even when its not raining the landscape is great. You
see every strand of grass,every leaf, and the bodys of water..again:)
You see the water move so perfectly and the reflection..ahh
its..extraordinary.
Sound: The music is beautiful, even if you dont respect that type of
music. It suits the mood perfectly, and everytime your about to get
into a fight, it changes to suit the fighting mood:). The voice acting
in the game is very well too lol I really like it.
Value: Definitly worth the 60 bucks, actually its worth the special
edition one thats only 10 dollars more. It has great replay value
because you choose what you want to do, when you want to do it, and how
you do it. You also can choose between many different skills you want
to level. Also, what your character looks like. You can choose from a
number of races, each with its own pro's and con's. Thats why people
usually start off with like 5 different files so they can experience
each race.
Tilt: Totally better than i expected. I expected an action/adventure
orientated game but its more than that. Actually I cant really explain
it. Its not like a game, its like a part of your life. It unlocks all
of your emotions, seriously.
Extra: This is a long game! There are soo many quests soo many items
soo many skills soo many spells its just soo much its nearly
overwhelming. This game will surely take you some time, so dont worry
about that. I only put 40-100 hours because i got the game like 3 days
ago, so i've only played like 40 some odd hours. People say they played
like 115 hours and havent even done the main quest, im telling you,
this game is long.
The difficulty varies. It has a bar you can move from Easy to Hard at
any point in the game which is good if the game is too challenging or
you want mroe of a challenge. I found this to be "Just Right".
The learning curve is like 1-2hours because there is soo much you can
do. The first level, which is about an hour or so long, is basically a
tutorial. So after the tutorial you should know what to expect.
The only reason i got an xbox was for this game. I went to the store
and made a big purchase of a sstem and Oblivion, one of the greatest
moments of my life:)
Bad: Some technical issues. It froze up on me, 3 or 4 times already.
Luckily it has been only moments after i had saved. (note:save A LOT!
lol) There are a lot of loading times, sometimes it gets boring because
of them. But thats ok because for every 5 seconds of waiting, you get
an hour of fun.
While it has a great presentation, a great experience, and its a great conversation topic(lol). This game is truly
