I finished this one yesterday (I was motivated by the arrival of Metroid).
In general, I enjoyed the game. The writing was only fair. The battle
was mind-numbingly simple. If you have a shield and any one-handed sword,
you can pretty much kill anything. It gets a bit hairy when there are multiple
adversaries, but if you are good at running around a bit, it really doesn't
pose a problem. Wish I knew how to effectively use all those amulets and
rings. I made myself stronger so I could lug around tons of healing potions
and arrows.
But, I was VERY disappointed in the ending. Geez, I play for a few hours
of my life and that is all I get? That pissed me off. At least let me cash in
all my loot and buy a hooker or something, right?
I've played worse, so no real whining here.
