Wiz 8, yes!!!! I would recomend it, its been awhile since i played it, but when i did i really had a feeling of Olds school RPG with updated graphics. it sticks with its roots pretty well. The battles are about picking targets like the old days, 5 warriors with 2 mages and 2 priests in the back, you know you gotta kill those priests or they are going to heal, and those mages can team up on your tank (or healer) and put him out in one round. You really gotta think a bit. it is real time (movement, not combat) so if you get 2 groups (ya groups, as in more then one :) ) and they see you, you dont get the luxury of fighting um one at a time.
it really feels like an oldschool guy (and one did) made it, he stuck with what we all loved and he updated it. he didnt whole sale change it, just made it seem fresh again (at least to me). As for wiz 7.. I still remeber buying it and seeing it was on 2- 3.5 floppies! How could any good MODERN (hehee modern with floppies! well it was back then) game come on only 2 discs! The game amazed me, and after jumping throuhg all the hoops to get it working on todays machines I still think the game looks pretty good (for its age) and the scope of the game amazes me.
Cant go wrong with either in my opinion (but wiz 7 is a beast to get running nowdays).
And XEEN!!!!! you can get it on gamefly, get your $7 account and play it, finish it, and cancel. Very cartoony, but the colors and graphics rocked back then.
So ya think we have some RPG fantics on this website? nah :)
