The Wizardry VI debate has shown appearances can be misleading. I agree that "Thief of Fate"'s graphics have some EGA flavor that is hardly bearable for Amigamen. Nevertheless, I'm ready to give this game a chance, especially because the scenario seems to be quite different from the other two. We can expect it will be far less complex than Wizardry VI, though, since it fits on two disks... More on this when I've played longer with it. +------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | Cedric BEUST University of Nice | | INET: beust@mimosa.unice.fr $whoami | | UUCP: llaor.unice.fr!arkonis!beust god (personal alias) | | -- "To be, or not to be...", | | That is illogical, captain! | | -- Spock | +------------------------------------------------------------------------+
