Why was Lionheart so underrated?

Hello all,
I do not know this game, nor have I played it before. But after reading reviews from Gamespot, I see that it was not that good a game...
Is it really that bad as they describe in Gamespot...?
I am currentlyt playing IWD2 and I would like something refreshing and new to play. So I looked at Lionheart..

What do you guys say?
Please advise.

I own Lionheart. It starts off good with lots of quests but does end up hack 'n' slash nearer the end. Regardless, it's still a good game.

The bit I really don't like is the henchmen. They run towards any enemy they see alerting any nearby army.

It's not as good as previous Black Isle creations but it's probably still a good buy.

I wish to know if gameplay is at all tolerable or the bugs that are so mentioned, make it simply not-playable.

Thanks again!

I don't think I had any trouble with bugs.
