This was a really ambitious and faithful adaptation of the AD&D: Birthright, resulting in a fantastic combination of Grand Strategy featuring ruling a kingdom and fighting mass battles and CRPG part that was made in the doom engine. I am not kidding, the part where you take party to some dungeon crawl was made in doom engine. Also, the game featured a lot of guitar riffs.
Sadly, the studio behind had ambitions of adding other part of the setting and even naval battle, but wasn't able. Oh, GoG if you manage to bring this back, they did a patch which added the ability to create characters.
I really love this game a great mix of RTS and RPG. A great storyline very Tolkienesque in its narrative. what you did in the RPG part also had effects in the RTS part was great.
please GOG, in god's name and all that is sacred in this world and beyond, RELEASE THIS GAME!!!!
I NEED it, and I need it now!
I must reverse engineer this big boy but you've got to lend me a hand here!!
please Gogwan Kenobi, you're my only hope!
One of my favorite games of all time! Deeply flawed and won't run properly without a patch floating somewhere on the internet, but such a great concept! Turn based strategy and roleplaying game in one package, with a great atmosphere as a bonus. It only runs on my old PC, with Dosbox. If Gog could iron out the glitches and slightly tweak the balance, this could be the best game of all time! Well, for me at least :)
Never played this game. But after doing plenty of research, this is something to preserve.
As technology has gotten greater and better, Ambition has started to fade from game development.
And my lord, the devs of this game reached for the stars.
While not perfect, this is one of those rough diamonds I just WANT and NEED to try...
Yet impossible to find these days; so GOG, get to it!
I own the game. I found it a desirable game to play. Never could finish it either I lacked the skills to get the computer set correctly or just didn't have a computer worthy of it being installed on. Did play it many times as you never got the exact same play.
To this day, I don't think there is a game that mixes turn-based grand strategy, tactical combat and party-based RPG exploration quite like this one. A remake or sequel would be wonderful, but at least making it available for people to buy would be a great step in the right direction.
This is a really fantastic game. I lost the cd years ago and on modern pc it doesn´t work :(
A mix of crusader kings and a dungeon crawler, it was one of these ambitious projects that sadly didn`t get much love from consumers.
I would love to see this preserved on gog!
One of the first game i ever played, as a kid coming from first readings of hobbit and LOTR, this game was lit. I played demo to the very limits, 10 years later i got the full game . The game was ahead of its time, trying to blend everything. I think mooding comunity could fix a lot of errors with adventure part of a game, that part was ...not good but also because it had a lot of potential, it feels rushed. But still i loved a game. It was amazing experiance.
It's a great and very unique aproach on a Dungeons & Dragons campaign setting. Birthright is one of the most unknown and underrated campaign settings in the entire history of D&D. In a single game, you can experience kingdom management, quests, leading an adventuring party through exciting dungeon raids, commanding armies in battles, and even controlling a character with godlike powers.
I played and replayed the game back since 1998.
From my experience, the game is very fun but also challenging, depending on the choices we make.
I want to play it again on GOG because since then, I have played many similar games, but none have combined all the elements that this one does. And most importantly, no other game, DLC, or mod has ever returned to the Birthright campaign setting (as far as I know).
Devil May Cry 3: Dante's AwakeningDevil May Cry 3: Dante's Awakening is a prequel to the first Devil May Cry. The game plays very differently from its predecessors, as it puts much more emphasis on style rather than simple demon slaying. As such, combat is much more intense and faster than before. An all-new Style system that allows you to select your fighting style has also been incorporated.Action Horror
