Here it is in english if you didn't get that
The best RPG I have played since the king's quest series. When I saw this game in a magazine, I saw it had the graphics of fallout (I later found out they are better then Fallout) and it is a TSR RPG. TSR has some great ideas and they made up the whole Dungeons and Dragon thing. When I began to play I was very amazed at this games depth and freedom. You can be a good guy, or a bad guy. You can be a thief a mage or one of the other 5 classes. There are also different races of people like Elves, (Forest dwelling human like race, they have pointed ears and are very dexterous. They lack strength, however.) Halflings (A race of small humans, about half size, they make great thieves.) and many others. Your party can consist of 6 characters. You and up to five others travel the land trying to kill the evil big knight guy (his name slips my mind). On the way you find tons of mini quests and missions. Meet very interesting people.
The combat system is great. There is a very good pause feature, you can do anything during pause. So if you get in a huge fight, pause, tell everyone what they need to do and unpause. Bang they all do their job. This game is five CDs long, which makes for on heck of a time killing game. It will take weeks of playing it strait to beat. Not to mention all the lands you can explore and secret characters you can find.
