The mobs attack you in an intelligent way. Also the npc that you enlist do not drag you down like in most games. If their hit points go to low that run and the healers actually heal you at appropriate times. It feels good not to have to baby sit your npc. I also like not feeling the level grind. I know that some RPG players enjoy the level grind, but this game keep your attention by having a large amount of quest instead of just mindlessly killing things for the next level.<BR/><BR/>One other feature I find a benefit is that many of your updates download while you are playing. Look for the little lighting bolt with a number of kb by it, and you know it is downloading. I was surprised to see that I did not experience lag while this was happing with at dial up speeds. I was also glad not to be waiting for hours for the game to update so I could play.<BR/><BR/><BR/>jessewehking@yahoo.comAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
