Loads of people seems to be upset about this game dont know why. I found this game after 12 years after seeing it once and it is what i expected and what i wanted and what it promissed to be at least now and even back then as i watched some old YT videos game didnt changed a lot sience. Totaly Recomend if you like RPG and Mage games plus some sort of challange and want to just relax. "Unlimited" Spells - Well Yes...
The pros: Satisfying magic system, with spell combos that look cool and feel impactful. Many of the environments look great, and there are satisfying boss battles on Badass difficulty. The cons: Lacklustre storyline, which feels convoluted because of a flawed delivery style with repetitive, linear gameplay. There is minimal decision making aside from playing around with spell loadouts and upgrades, which is fun...
