Ignore my steam hours, I used to own this game. It's old, so go into it knowing that some things are going to be hard to figure out and things like the quest journal may not be polished. That being said, I love nethergate. It's a refreshing break from the games nowadays that hold your hand through every linear dungeon and tell you exactly where to go. I like getting lost in the dungeons, being slingshotted from above by goblins, getting trapped and being penalized for activating things I shouldn't be activating. The characters are fairly robust, with a 4 party system that allows you to specialize pretty well. Definitely recommend if you're looking for an older RPG fix.. Upon completion of Nethergate (8\/31\/14, 5:54am), I've now finished every single Spiderweb game on steam on torment difficulty.In celebration I am considering setting up a shrine on the street and charging people 5 dollars to come and soak in my magnificent countenance."Come! See the man with no life!" the brochures will say, "So little life, that he spent over 900 hours playing through the Geneforge saga, Nethergate, Avadon 1 and 2, Escape from the Pit, and the second Avernum trilogy on the hardest difficulties!"Mothers will shush their children and tell them not to look as they pass by, the occasional kindly priest or do gooder will sometimes throw a few coins my way and mutter prayers to themselves wondering how one could have fallen so far, while groups of teenagers and young men will jeer and mock, throwing old tin cans and bits of rock at my head.But I shall sit serenely in my state of old school isometric RPG nirvana, my body covered in muck and spit, but my mind drifting outside of the cares of this world, pondering the time that my party was nearly wiped and I fought off a group of chitrachs with just my priest, or the time in Avernum 5 when I spent 20 minutes killing a wolf with 4,000 hp, or the time in Geneforge 4 when I repeatedly reloaded a giant battle to save all the Serviles because I couldn't bear to see a single of the cute little buggers get caught in the crossfire, or that bloody, \u2665\u2665\u2665\u2665ing, redbeard boss fight (which, truth be told, I never did bother completing). In short, while physically present, I shall have passed on from this world, lost in a realm a bit higher than the real, forever and wholly beyond the fray.....or at least until Spiderweb releases another game, anyway.. I had a lot of fun with this game. You can play 2 different sides and get to experience history a little from two perspectives. I really like the fantasy setting and there are plenty of things to explore. If you are familiar with Spiderweb games I believe this one is a good one. The Avernum series is also a great one.. While I enjoyed some of the Avernum titles this one has not entranced me. In fact because of the way it is displayed it is not only not engaging but downright hard to play because of the tiny graphics. (Even with the "fixed" resolution ap at the beginning it looks very poor.) And frankly it just wasn't my cup of tea. However if you like Rome based games (the game takes place in Roman Controlled Albion (because England is not yet a thing) and that may appeal to you. I did not get far so I am not really saying buy or don't buy but beware that it may be unappealing because of the size of the game window and graphics within. That said, if it is on sale at $0.99us or so that isn't a terrible price to pay to find out you don't enjoy it.. I was exploring an abandoned mine when I found a deep pit. The game said the pit was really deep, but that I could survive the fall. The game also said that there were "shiny" things in the bottom of the pit. I jumped in the pit. There was nothing there. Had to load an old save game. 10\/10 true-blood old school rpg, will scratch the itch.. This game is fantastic, and I'm pretty sure that it's not even nostalgia talking. Cons: No music (beyond the simple music in the main menu), the ambient sounds that it plays in some areas are kind of awful, the graphics are archaic, the ui is not super intuitive, and in general it feels like you are playing a game that was made in 1998 (spoilers: you are)Pros: Despite all the cons I listed, this game is still REALLY fun and immersive! I played as the Celts and the story hooked me right from the beginning when your party of adventurers is summoned for mysterious reasons to the fortress of Nethergate. Although there is some historical context to the game, you are soon introduced to some distinctly non-historical creatures. You are plunged, in true fantasy rpg fashion, into a cave full of goblins to pilfer back a stolen relic of great significance, or perhaps into a fairie temple to bargain, or even to a dragon's lair. What really shines about this game is the attention to detail. The game is brimming with secret areas, rare treasures, rich detailed descriptions, interesting characters, easter eggs, and little clever touches everywhere. Combat feels good even after a thousand battles due to well-paced progression in terms of spells, equipment, and enemies. Playing on the standard difficulty, I felt that the game was challenging enough to require me to reload my save plenty of times, but never punishing enough to make me ragequit. You always want to try just one more time because you know you can do better if you just used a different spell, or started the fight in a slightly different formation.So basically if you want to play an old, classic rpg that not only shows its age but wears it like a badge of honor, buy this game. I think you will find an experience that is rich and full of life.. I wanted to like Nethergate, but the reality is I do not think the game liked me. Like many of Spiderweb CRPG's it is more a labor of love than a polished effort. If you have played other of their games and like the mechanics you'll be fine. I liked the choice between playing Celts and Romans quite a bit. The problem with the game is mostly none of the tools you really need (which is a common issue with Spiderweb's games) are in the game. The quest\/journal is laughably bad, after taking a break for a couple months I got back into the game and it was of no use. I had the choice between replaying the game which I had invested a fair amount of time in or uninstalling and walking away. I chose the later with zero regret.If it is on sale and you can tough through the multiple flaws, it might be tolerable. Barely, but I would still not recommend it.. This is a very old school game, so much that you might be turned off at the first second of playing.But if you manage to get past that and get hooked by the story and setting, you're in for a fantastic adventure into the realm of celts, faeries and roman intruders!Difficult to get past the old engine, but a story worth playing.
