Help! Good (old) action/RPG needed

I've added it to my radar based on a few different conversations, but I haven't had any luck finding a copy.

My friend had it on his bookshelf beneath a layer of dust. So far I am impressed. I had feared something close to Diablo 2 but frankly this reminds me of an equal mix of Baldurs Gate. It have the Diablo 2 combat mechanics but the Baldurs Gate storytelling techniques, sudden encounters, cutscenes, NPC filled cities, heaps of quests that include both puzzles and moral decisions.

Divine Divinity.

I bought it on Ebay from a seller in the UK. Got it for about 10$...
Good game. Worth the time. Good music also.

Forget about Beyond Divinity. It's Larian's second title in that series. I just can't play it. It's just not the same and the voice of one of the main characters is intolerable...

I know but I never had the problems I've read about at the Dot when people were freaking out when the producers were talking about using it in Gothic 3.

I think I have another game that has this blasted program but I forget which one it is.

So far, my PC is fine...

I know Kayla is a fellow Majesty addict, so I'll suggest a little budget Majesty-like game I'm having fun with called "Medieval Conquest" tho it's 3D and runs a little crappy at times on my high-end system, so I dont know how strong a referral that is ='.'=

Have her check out Fastcrawl too, you never know, she might like it!

And tell her to poke her head in here sometime and say hi, I miss chatting with her now and then!

Ah, I remember hearing about some Majesty-alike but couldn't remember the title -- thanks.

The Majesty disk never gets put away, dte...it just needed a break.

As it turns out, I can't dislodge her from NWN2, so I decided to restart Gothic 3 on my gaming rig and just tough out the heat up here.

Thanks again for all the suggestions.
