Thalion really made grat and ambitous rpgs back in the day and I love all of them, (see Dragonflight and Ambermoon). Later on some developers went over to blue byte and worked on Albion, also a great crpg. Amberstar has top down exploration and FP elements. Its a great party based rpg with good storytelling and a big world to explore. It would be a great addition for gog for enthusiasts of crpgs.
