There is a good game in here but rushed/unfinished/unpoilsihed certianly comes to mind, not to mention the frustration of AI, bugs and broken quests.
I recall the change in Lead Designer was very near the end, is it possible he left becasue they wouldn't let him finish it and needed to rush it out for Atari's bank account?
Seems very similar to what JoWood did to G3, if so.
It's as if the game is 85% finished, afaik there sure doesn't seem like anything the new Lead could have done other than trying to finish it up, certianly you can't gp in and do redesigns 3-6 months berfore release.
Anyway was just wondering.
