What kind of game will have you thinking about it and replaying it for years at a time? This kind.

What kind of game will leave you literally praying for another game that rivals it? This kind.

Most of Black Isle's games were really good, but Planescape: Torment is nothing short of a masterpiece. The lush gameworld, the extraordinarily intricate character interaction, and the terrific plot are all things that we have seen before and are likely to see again. But, Planescape leaves you with something even more than a pleasant gaming experience; it leaves you with an entirely new perspective on life. Without being brazen about it, Planescape demonstrates that tiny actions, miniscule decisions can change the nature of the universe; it also shows the affects of what I believe to be the most painful emotion within the human experience, regret. At the same time as all this, Planescape is successful at being a remarkably good game, and it isn't preachy at all (in case you're worried that philosophy will override entertainment).

This game is close to godliness; definitely my favorite game of all time. Highly recommended.
