1 out of 5 stars Ripped off CD Key   September 8, 2008
You know what this game came with a CD KEY. But the thing is first few letters of it were ripped off.

Buyers Beware.



5 out of 5 stars Cool Universe - Rich Grapihcs   August 4, 2008
I played with this game for about three weeks. I had a good time with it, for me it was very immensive. Its 2008 now, maybe there are games with better graphics and effects, but I think this is a classic.

Never tried the first spellforce, so I don't know if it was supposed to be any good. But if the second is any indication, I don't think I'll bother with finding out. The game tries to be both an RPG and a Warcraft style RTS. What happens instead is that your characters wander through some hokey maps killing random monsters (not very difficult) until they "stumble" across an army that needs to be suppressed. At that point, they build the necessary unit factories and march off to war using the same hokey maps. The RPG side of the game is a poor copy of Diablo with a similar, but relatively useless set of skills. The RTS side is equally uninteresting with units that have few redeeming qualities. There is no point in developing any strategy harder than the classic rush 'em, i.e. throw everything you got at the bad guy, no matter what it is.... you'll win every time.



4 out of 5 stars Good game overall   June 13, 2008
I didn't read any reviews before purchasing this game, I played the demo. Hint to game designers: people DO like demos to see how a game runs on their rig, rather than hearing how it ran on someone elses'.

I was quite pleased with how well it ran on my computer that I was planning on upgrading as everything in it was, at the time, sub-par. That was with decent graphic levels. My computer had an Athlon 4200+ 64 X2 Dual(2.2 GHz), 2 GB RAM, and a 7600 GS, which was a relatively cheap card for a temporary graphics boost beyond the 6150 integrated card.

Upon beating the game I'm impressed. The graphics never made me think "cheap", like other games that have sometimes been lauded for their graphics (Dungeon Siege), and while the voice acting was poor in spots, it was still far superior to games sold for more here in the US.

Initially I thought I had no CD key before installing, but that was because I didn't look hard enough. I found it on a piece of paper taped to the box, which I hadn't been expecting.

Gameplay? Challenging, even having playing a large number of RPG and RTS games in the past. Also fun. Heroes can potentially be a bit overpowering, but without support from an army they can also be overwhelmed by an opponent utilizing good tactics. Many ways to design your hero, most effective path is via straight combat or straight magic, but more powerful combinations of combat and magic are also available.

I'm still working through the Freeplay campaign, which unfortunately doesn't allow a standard campaign character to play.

Warning this game does not have the needed CD key in about half of it packages due to poor quality control. Don't buy
