First time I played it, it was pretty amazing. Unlike other games as old as this, this game is one of the few where you could choose the character.
But when I played this game almost year later I started to notice the flaws. Firstly monsters respawn too quickly (but on the bright side - fast xp and much money at start). Secondly the clicking gets annoying when you kill someone because, when you release mouse button then the character finishes his blow and stands like dummy between attacking foes. And the creatures dropped strange things (wolf dropped gold coins, bears dropped swords).
But it wasn't only bad things. Rich main quest line. Whole bunch of side quests. Detailed world. Easy to learn.
