Lionheart has potential. But that's about all it has. What could have been an interesting and original RPG turns out to be half a game. While the first few hours of the game have some depth and interest in them, once you exit the city it's just fighting. And fighting is not Lionheart strong point. Its strong point is the interesting setting, the historical twist and mixing it up with historical characters like De-Vinchi and Machiavelli. But sadly, these moments are too few.
Maybe with an added year of development it could have become a good game, as it is, it's very far from it.
