Sounds like i should give JA2 another chance maybe, its one of those games i've started up a few times throughout the years, but i don't think i've ever finished even the first mission because it really didn't grab me at all.
Arx Fatalis is really good, reminded me of Ultima Underworld so i never had any trouble getting into it..
