I keep hearing about Wizardry 8, though I haven't played it yet.
I'm quite confident you will like it. After reading your articles and your book, I always wondered why you didn't describe Wizardry 8 as one of the greatest RPGs ever -- now I know why ;)
After also playing Planescape: Torment and Baldur's Gate 1 & 2, I wouldn't say anymore that Wizardry 6, 7 and 8 are simply the best cRPGs ever. However, all these games are definitely among the very best of the genre. They all have in common that they have very few significant weaknesses but each one has at least one unique feature which makes it outstanding.
I strongly recommend Wizardry 7 and 8 to every true cRPG fan. Btw, you can easily finish Wizardry 8 in less than a week if you restrict sleep ;)
