It captures the feel of D&D. In fact, it does so better than its distant ancestors Baldur's Gate I and II. While I love the Infinity Engine games, it lacks as a storytelling engine, whereas this one excels. The frequent skillchecks are exactly what let you tell *your* character's story.

Not too far into the game yet, so these are just initial impressions. I'll update the review once I get time to really experience this game to the end.
