sometimes I have the feeling, that you have too much time.... :P
Anyway good work. How are your impressions from the game ? (As far as I can remember I haven't seen yours anywhere. At least not in this thread.)

Well I was helped by doing some trading with dolls and other stuff, and getting help from others, though I have been playing it pretty much non-stop
I thought it was a very good game, but there are many little glitches that are really annoying and minor issues. I enjoyed the combat, and thought that it worked very well. The main story was good, but not incredible. I am not entirely sure whether he should have been given more character, I did not really like the fact that he does not speak, and that he only communicates through goofy geastures.
I have never actually played a wRPG apart from Mass Effect, which was very different, but I did quite like it. The sidequests were good, and I liked the fact that they expolore new uniquish areas and also can unlock new things. I also like the whole economy system and buying and selling of houses was good, as well as the sales aspect
The mini-games were pretty poor, but certainly playable, and the frequent rent from property allowed me not to that much of them
I can't say I particularly liked the clothes, but that was just a stylistic thing
In terms of the good and evil system, as I have said I haven't really played many wRPGs, so I haven't played that many good and bad systems. While I liked how flexible it was, so if you became evil, then you can still become good. However, there were very few things that had major lasting decisions, there are a few, but you can still pick all of the three endings, which I don't think quite works if you have a fully good/evil character. Having the corruption purity thing as seperate is quite good as well, though I did not really like the fact that I get flies around me all the time as I am totally corrupt! But it is good the way that your decisions effect you, but I wish they would effect the world around you more.
In terms of the marriage stuff, I didn't really bother with it. It was an interesting idea, but I don't really see the point of having a wife and she does get quite needy
What I did really like was the co-op play, though the camera was a bit dodgy, I did play quite a lot of the main quest in co-op and I did some of the sidequests as co-op. It worked well, though there were a few other issues apart from the camera, such as if you are playing online co-op, you don't actually know what the other person is doing apart from that you are frozen, so you have to guess he is accessing a menu
Overall, it is a very good game, but those niggling little problems keep it from being great, so I would probably give it around an 8.5, because I also think the story was lacking a little, they should have used more of Stephen Fry and maybe a larger world would have helped, and shorter load times, so basically it is mostly small issues, apart from the story, which could have been better. (ME was about a 9.5 for me)
