This is a fantasticly addicting game for people that like roleplaying games. The game gives you a variety of origin story options, all of which influence your interactions with various NPC's. This game has been so much fun that I haven't played my MMORPG for almost a month (and my friends have been similarly addicted).
What's great about it: Great storyline with lots of character options
What's not so great: Graphics are pretty good, but not quite what I was expecting.
