The Reliques of Tolti-Aph

Reviews Exchange

The combat system that is at the heart of the game is pretty cringe worthy. I'm a big fan of RPG on the whole - Baldur's Game II and Diablo II and Morrowind - but the combat system here is lame. There's not even a proper combat system as such because all that seems to happen is that someone attacks you and you just bang the RETURN key a few times until the combat is over. Exciting it isn't. During the first combat in the game, between myself and a harpy, I tried doing things like ATTACK HARPY or KILL HARPY only to be told that I couldn't because I was already in combat. Ho hum. My opinion of the game, already low, sunk a bit further.
