Is Champions of Norrath any good??

I just bought the game this weekend for 20 bucks...haven't played it yet because i wanted to finish Zelda: Windwaker first.

The game looks very good and interesting....I hope it is a good one player game because I don't have Broadband in my area.

Let me know your thoughts!!

I played my shadow knight to lvl 6 and so far have had a blast. As you can tell by my sig I play Everquest also and I think they did the shadow knight quite well from what I can see. YMMV as always. It's like Baldur's Gate: Dark Alliance (which I loved, and finished), but maybe the association with Everquest makes it an even better experience.

I enjoyed the Dark Alliance games more, but that is not to say I do not enjoy playing CoN. Both have features I enjoy, so it is a fun if you like the game style.

Youll love it !
Its just like Diablo 2 & Baldurs Gate.
These Hack n' slash games are my fave.
I havent quite finished it yet because I keep getting more & more stuff.
Does anyone know how long of a game it is ?
I thought the BG games were fairly short.

Since I can't play it online...will I still enjoy it...looks like it will still be a kick @$$ one player game.

Is the save system good??? I hate not being able to save when I want.

The save system could be better, but it is alot better than others. You have to be at a save portal/point, but they are usually in the right places, and when you see one it is smart to use it. I like this better than Baldur's gate, but it has not over taken the Diablo series for me.

I don't have broadband anymore and I've enjoyed playing it. It allows for coop play so my wife and I have a game going that seems like it has lasted a while but we're busy enough that I can't even guess how many hours we've played.
