I have to interject, it does not have nice graphics, even for its year. The characters look nice, the world looks like Thief the Metal Age with sugar on top, just good enough that it doesn't interfere with your enjoyment of the game.
So far I'm getting my ass handed to me. I'm hoping that will change once I can throw around a fireball or two, my humble shortsword doesn't seem to have any effect on the platemail guys who have been chasing me since the tutorial.
