I agree with all of Cainehill's gripes, but i am having a blast with it anyway. Rough edges on niche game made by two guys who have day jobs? Of course! Since they made not one, but two games that are on my all time favorite list, i forgive them.

Perhaps this is an age thing. I remember the days when it was foolish to buy a 'puter game before you played someone else's copy because many of them did not work *at all*!
An age thing? Heh, don't think so. _I_ remember the days where you _had_ to buy a game without playing anyone else's copy, because there'd be at most two copies of the game, packaged in ziploc bags, in the computer stores in your city. So you'd drop 60-70 bucks on a game, and sometimes get lucky (the original Wizardry, Loderunner, etc).

And I'm not saying I don't like the game - I do, and I appreciate the improvements IW has made. And I'll stop short before saying anything more, 'cause Gandalf already thinks I hijacked his thread.

(Gandalf - I missed the bit about wanting a more upbeat thread, and only keyed in on the question, "is anyone having fun?", which is a question with more than one answer. Sorry. )
