k, plot/atmosphere matter of personal preference I guess. I may have suffered from hearing all the hype.
Re: steam OTOH, I do see the point in steam but I'd rather not have to wait up to half an hour before being able to play the game. Happened a couple of times the damn thing took so long to update (no offer of skipping it I could see) that by the time it had started I had to turn it off again:/ I do have broadband btw.
ObOnTopic: Grim Fandango is another of my fave games
Switchblade:
Funny. On a 56K dial-up, I had to endure only a single 90-minute download time when I first set up the game. Since then, the whole thing's been as smooth as a shaved baby's bum after being sat in WD-40. I've found it to be nothing other than incredibly useful, in fact, though I have heard horror stories.
And it is possible to run Steam in an offline mode, too, you know.
I respect that you don't want to let a game's hype force you into making a false positive judgement, but at the same time it's possible to go too far in the opposite direction. I find that hype is justified, more often than not.
Anyway, 'nuff said on that topic. I urge you to replay and take things slower, and look around at the game world more closely, however. You should ahve a more fulfilling experience.

call me an old coot, but my favorite game was the sierra version of the black cauldron.
actually, pretty much anything sierra put out back in the 80s was cool shit.

If you love the Shining Force games, you should definitely check out Nippon Inchi's strategy RPGs on PS2. I recommend Disgaea, although Phantom Brave is my favorite; Disgaea's battle system is just like Shining Force, whereas Phantom Brave changes up some fundamentals.
Too bad about the latest 'Shining' game, Shining Tears.

Standout game right now that I can go back to again and again...
Tales of Symphonia. Doesn't need multiplayer, I <3 rpg's and as conventional as the story is, I don't mind playing through it.
Edit:
Before ToS, there was shining Force II.... SLADE WAS AWESOME.
