I'm not going to write you a huge review, but let me say that I wasn't going to get this game. Normally, the only game I will play is a shooter, nothing else ever interested me. But about a week ago a friend let me play on a new file my friend created (but never used). Going through the beginning sequence was amazing, and using magic made my day.

What sealed the deal was when I was in a mine filled with bandits or something and there was an archer on a bridge, I took out my long bow and shot once, got a hit but it wasn't enough of course. The dude on the bridge just kept walking around aimlessly with an arrow stuck in his leg, so I aimed a little higher and got the kill. When I went to retrieve my arrows the last one I shot was stuck directly in his chest where his heart would be and I made a big fuss about how awesome that was, my friends told me to shut up and I decided to buy the game and the blockbusters next to me that's closing down. Hopefully today is when I'll get it.

Trust me, this is coming from a picky gamer, and I would 100% buy this game.
