You cannot ever go wrong with any of the Avernum titles. I think I might hit them next after I'm finished with Phantasy Star and Final Fantasy. Need to get into the double digits on replays!!!
I never played the first one because it was never discounted much, considering my backlog. It's not on Steam nor GoG. Don't even own it. Cheap bastard, eh?
I was speaking of myself, not Pierre. I know nothing about him, and certainly would not criticize him.
While the sequel is undoubtedly a step up in variety of classes and (I assume) gameplay, I feel like taking the graphics *another* step down is going to hurt. Also the inventory and character interfaces somehow look *worse* than in the first game.
