One word .... STARFORCE

Wont buy cause of that. The fact that starforce can lay waste to my computers hardware and its operating system does not warrant the risk of getting a great game like this.

Just from reading the reviews I do not understand why SpellForce 2 gets a "7" for sound where Oblivion gets a "9". I have only played Oblivion so far and I agree that there only seem to be tree or four voice actors. How many are there in SpellForce 2. Just 2?

The number of voice actors a game has is irrelevant to the mark. It's quality that counts, not quantity. And as I mention in the review, a lot of the voice acting is forced - particularly in regards to accents. Overall, it's still pretty good, just not as good as it might have been, hence the 7.

@Voiicu

Not sure if you're Europe or US based, but the US publisher of SpellForce 2, Aspyr, have dropped StarForce from the game. Not sure if JoWooD (the European publisher) are following suit, but it looks like the tide is turning against StarForce. The build I was given didn't require me to install it, so fingers crossed, you can buy it after all!
