Advantages: better graphic than the precedent episode, good rpg

Disadvantages: nothing is really new

Might and magic is one of the much famous rpg saga, this new episode, begin with the creations of your 4 heroes, in the game you can add other 3 character that will join you, they can be mercenary or other adventurer, like in many might and magic games there are tons of ability, but in the beginning you can only choose from two classes: warrior and enchanter, (don't worry there is plenty of time to let your character progress in different path while they gets more experience, for example after 9 or 10 hours of play the 2 warriors can have choose path completely different)

When you have finished assembling your party, you can start exploring this new world, (there is no option to import your character from m&m VIII and the world is totally new), the first thing that you note when you start is the new graphic stile, much more accurate because it use the 3d video engine, that gives might and magic a whole new look, (this time the world is in full 3d even the armoury or a magic guild of a city will be in 3d and you can enter and explore them, in precedent m&m this was limited to a simple 2d image).

The game maintain the spirit of the old might and magic, there are many quest, some of them are "exclusive" for some character for example you can?t at the same time do a quest to level up your mage to Druid and Lich (to be honest even in m&m VIII it was the same).

This game to tell the truth, like the previous might and magic has something "new" (the graphic in 3d) but the game basically is the same, even the graphic is not so different (in my opinion is simply better and more accurate but is not so different) however I played many games of this saga, and I loved all the predecessor of this game, so I think that this game is only indicated to m&m fan and maybe rpg lover as well.
