We received a preview build of the sequel to one of the most popular action RPGs (6 hours of playtime in all) and we have found so far that it brings engaging game play; with several playable races, as well as a Tolkinesque story of loyalty, treason, and an evil power that is awakened once again and must be defeated at all costs. At first you are only a pawn in a larger game with very high stakes. And by 'high' I mean you will have to risk your own life many times in order to make your way out the mess you've gotten yourself into. You start off as a mercenary for the tyrant Valdis, fighting alongside your childhood friend Drevin, but things do not go as you planned and your dishonorable alliance with the bad guys eventually puts you in prison. But we'll cross that bridge when we come to it.
