-
The deed system is so simple yet so great; it’s a real surprise it hasn’t been included much before.
-
An innovative traits and title system, unique social-networking -- like an in-game music system and player-driven Wiki -- and the rich storylines and subplots that stay true to the source material easily make this name-brand role-player a hot contender for PC game of the year.
