I espeically liked that they did their homework with the game, calling HERACLES by his actual name rather than the Romanization and generally being very accurate to the myths. My only pet peeves were basically the same kinds of pet peeves I had with Diablo II, namely that the gear was all random so there's no way of knowing whether what you find is better than what you have or not, and that some of the bosses could be just plain annoying since I didn't have a good enough build to dish out damage faster than they healed. I eventually slogged my way through the main quest, but I haven't played Immortal Throne yet. I really should give this game another look. It was a fun time-waster back in college.
