My first foray into this series and it was a good time. The flow of combat is slower than more modern turn-based games, but the built-in turbo button helps make that easier to deal with.

What really impressed me was the effort put into world-building and story. This setting is vast and very detailed. There is a library filled to the brim with books that just go into detail of this world. As for the actual story, it's solid. It's biggest issue though is it's game 1 out of 4 and pacing feels like that. The constant twists help keep it going though.
