Oh. My. God
The reviews in here speak for this game. Out of 147 reviews of Planescape: Torment, only seven had ratings under five stars. One of those was because they haven't received the game yet, one of them is because they are not aware of the fact that Black Isle released patches on the net to fix bugs in early versions, three because they are simply too impatient to allow the storyline to unfold in all its glory, and two who admitted that it wasn't their kind of game. But I don't believe them. That's just ridiculous. Fair enough, if you are a total Ad&D nerd that wants laborious character creation and endless menus, then this is not your game. In this game, your character is shaped by how you play the game, not vice versa. Go and play Baldur's Gate with all your other lonely friends. This game is the absolute pinnacle of gaming perfection, from the graphics to the cutscenes, to the characters and the many locations wandering the planes takes you to. And let's not forget about the storyline. My GOD, the storyline. I cannot describe in words the sheer rollercoaster of emotions your character takes you through in the quest to find yourself; the decisions you make and the impact they could have on the multiverse. Also, the man, the legend, Tony Jay, the "Most evil voice of all time" lends his superior talents to the voice of the final boss, an ever-present reminder of the evil that can occur in this strange world.Anyone who does not agree that this game is sex in a box should have their head examined. Best. Game. Ever. 140 out of 147 reviewers cannot be wrong.
