The team has created a stylish and very attractive look that achieves a solid balance between retaining the essential feel of the original and establishing its own identity. The 16 races and 24 classes will support a broad range of play styles, and the character creation system allows for a tremendous degree of visual customization. The sequel has a substantially shallower learning curve and its gameplay is more accessible overall; for example, the world is easier to navigate, and both travel and down time have been reduced. The gameworld is varied, there's more to do within it aside from combat, and the extensive voice acting is definitely and immediately noticeable.
