(More customer reviews)I'm an RPG nut.I grew up with the early keyboard-interface games with CGA graphics and fell in love with the style of game.As far as I'm concerned, the games could still play like that or could even still be on pencil and paper.The graphics don't matter to me that much.I like collections.I also have all the Ultima games in a CD-ROM collection and the King's Quest Series.It's worth it to get all the games at once.I bought this collection because I played Dark Savant.In my opinion, that is one of the BEST RPGs ever made.It takes at least 6 months to complete and is so detailed and so wonderful.This set of games is worth it for that one game.The other ones are still awesome.Of course, if all you care about are graphics and sound, you might not find their charm.But, they are all great RPGs.
