I think the the best thing about this game is that it won't allow you to just mash buttons. Just about everyone of the boss battles requires you to use some kind of strategy, tactics, and planning. It has been enjoyable but frustrating at times. I almost quit a few times because I kept losing the fight but a trip to the forums or just a little more thought revealed the solution. I'm afraid playing games like Gothic 3, Witcher, Fallout 3 and the like have made me lazy. I usually play on easy difficuly but Drakensang didn't give me the chance. I don't regret it.
It took me about 12 hours over 5 days to get through Drakensang mountain and it is quite an interesting end. Thank-you Radon Labs for a good game.
