    Definitely very good, beautifully written, good characters and so on, but I wouldn’t say the best RPG ever made. It’s more like a old-school point-and-click adventure puzzle game for grown-ups.

    It’s not particularly fun to play though - the intrigue keeps you going, but its a bit more like reading a great interactive novel than playing a game.

      It’s certainly the best RPG ever written and one of the coolest RPG systems of all time, easily my favorite and it’s not particularly close. I think the point about it not being fun is extremely subjective.

      It’s not a AAA blockbuster with action-driven gameplay but there’s more than enough entertainment and intrigue to get you through multiple replays in my experience.
