After all that, do we really need to add a conclusion that details how disappointing Might and Magic IX is? This is more of a cheap attempt to cash in on the legacy of New World's esteemed franchise than it is to actually live up to classics such as Mandate of Heaven and Clouds of Xeen. It's only for serious series completists, people who prefer braindead clicking to real role-playing, and those who can't wait to see if Morrowind is more deserving of their time and money.
Mit 66% fällt der Testbericht von MMworlds etwas besser aus:really like this game, though 3DO seems to have gone out of their way to make me hate it at times. The NWC (ex-NWC?) team of RPG designers turned out a masterwork here, finally restoring the Might and Magic series to the levels of MM6 and before. They crafted the best classic RPG for the computer from any developer over the past 10 years. What they turned over to the software, documentation, and QA groups to implement was superb. We can only guess at what the software team could have accomplished if 3DO had given them the time and resources to let them finish the package, before releasing it.
Offenbar werden sich die Wertungen mit 60-70%-Bereich einpendeln.
